Question- Classification of personality according to Jung.

Answer-

Jung’s classification : He divided all human being bsically into two distinct types, Introvert and extrovert - according to their social Participation and the interest which they take in social activities. Later on, the further sharpened his two-fold division by giving sub-types. In this process he took in to consideration the four psychological functions thinking feeling, sensation and institution, in relation to his previous extrovent and introvert types.

The classification has been criticized on the grounds that in general, such different types or classes as suggested by Jung do not exist. Most of us, on the basis of typical characteristics prescribed for extrovert and introvert, may belong to both of the categories as may be called. This bring Complication and hence this type of approach does not give a clear picture of classification or description of personality.
