The Skinny on Jungian Archetypes

The theory behind Jungian archetypes is that we all have, to varying degrees, preferences in how we like to learn things and make decisions. This theory uses two pairs of opposites to describe these preferences:

  • Some people prefer to learn ideas - via their iNtuition - while others prefer to learn facts - via their Senses
  • Some people prefer to make decisions using emotion - Feeling - while others prefer to use logic - Thinking

Jung's theory further proposes that one of these four functions is stronger than the others, and that the strongest function is directed either outward (Extraverted) or inward (Introverted). Hence in his seminal work General Description of the Types he describes eight Archetypes. We can denote each of these with a two-letter abbreviation.

  • The first letter indicates the individual's strongest preference: F for Feeeling, N for iNtuition, S for Sensing, or T for Thinking
  • The second letter indicates whether this preference is Extraverted (e) or Introverted (i)

Thus the abbreviations for the eight Jungian archetypes are Fe, Ne, Se, Te, Fi, Ni, Si, and Ti.

Isabel Myers and her mother, Katharine C. Briggs, extended Jung's theory and codified their ideas into what is known as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI®. This theory uses the terms 'Judging' when referring to the decision-making functions (Feeling and Thinking) and 'Perceiving' when referring to the learning functions (iNtuition and Sensation).

Referring to the strongest function as the 'Dominant,' they realized that the supporting or 'Auxiliary' function also plays an important role in a personality.

  • When the Dominant function is a Judging function, the Auxiliary function is a Perceiving function
  • When the Dominant function is a Perceiving function, the Auxiliary function is a Judging function

The Myers-Briggs theory recognizes that for Extraverted types the Dominant function is directed outwards and for Introverted types the Dominant function is directed inwards. The MBTI® uses four pairs of opposites to describe a personality:

  • A person is either Extraverted ('E') or Introverted ('I')
  • A person prefers to learn via iNtuition ('N') or via Sensation ('S')
  • A person prefers to make decisions using Feeling ('F') or Thinking ('T')
  • A person prefers to deal with the outside world by either Judging ('J') or Perceiving ('P')

These four pairs of opposites form the basis of the popular four letter abbreviations, such as ENFJ and ISTP, that refer to each of the 16 types.

In practice people's personalities often do not fit cleanly into one of these 'tiny little boxes,' because these preferences are not a matter of black and white. Many people actually come out right in the middle of certain preferences, and therefore may effectively fall into more than one category. Additionally, the specific characteristics of the various preferences work together in unique ways.

Having a login account at groja.com has the following advantages in addition to allowing you to save profiles and images in the database:

  • Registered users can save more than just one profile and image per quiz type
  • Registered users can name their profiles and images
  • Registered users can use more options when creating images
  • Users with 'advanced' accounts can post images to the site's content area

At this time, because this site just recently came online, login accounts are available only to people we know in real life. This may change, however, as we become more comfortable with all this, so be sure to check back soon!

Keirsey Temperament Sorter

The Keirsey Temperament Sorter (II) consists of 70 questions. This results in an even number of questions for each pair of opposites, which allows people to come out as an indeterminate ("X") type.

The Groja Program™ cannot draw an image when one of the pairs is indeterminate, therefore it requires the score from only 66 of these questions to draw your Groja Image™.

If your type is indeterminate for two pairs of opposites, create four personality profiles, and so forth....
