thank you so much for: personality tests
ahhh... personality tests. it’s always “you’re emotionally vulnerable and self isolating.” and never, “you’re an emotionally vulnerable hottie with a phat ass.” amirite? even so, we love taking them. we love being able to define our traits and put order to the madness inside our minds. today we continue a subject we started talking about last week: archetypes and specifically how they connect with personality. we talk more about our buddy Carl Jung, who has a lot of research out there about personality. and we discuss our own results on a very popular online personality test. tune in! linked is the test we took, so you can take it too! and tell us your results because you know we gotta know.for further investigations:16 Personalities TestCarl Jung research:Psychological Types by Carl JungCarl Jung Personality Types by Fiona RossCarl Jung’s Theory Of Personality: Archetypes & Collective UnconsciousFreud and the Oedipus Complex:Oedipus complex: psychology (Encyclopedia Britannica)Revisiting Freud’s Oedipus Complex in Girls by Fatima AdenwallaThe Big 5 and the MBTI:The Big 5 Facets and the MBTIthank you so much for: dreams
