Book Jung   s Personality Theory Quantified

Download or read book Jung s Personality Theory Quantified written by Douglass J. Wilde and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-01-06 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jung's Personality Theory Quantified fills an urgent need for professionals using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI) to map it on to the cognitive modes of Jung’s personality theory, avoiding potential logical errors in the traditional “type dynamics” method. It furthers Jung’s original concepts while placing them on a solid axiomatic basis not possessed by other personality theories. Bringing these quantitative findings to the millions of MBTI users – managers, consultants, counsellors, teachers, psychoanalysts and human resource professionals – will require further education of those already certified to administer the instrument according to type dynamics. For this reason numerical exercises follow most chapters to make the book a source reference for briefer workbooks usable in enhanced certification programs. Backed by quantitative theory and new graphical methods, the pioneering qualitative typology work of Myers and Briggs is thus extended to yield deeper understanding of the vital topics of human personality, creativity and human relations. Jungian psychoanalysts may find Jung's Personality Theory Quantified helpful in organizing complicated clinical information and it can also enhance the work of MBTI practitioners worldwide.

Book Post Jungian Personality Theory for Individuals and Teams

Download or read book Post Jungian Personality Theory for Individuals and Teams written by Douglass Wilde and published by . This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is partly intended as a brief inexpensive text for courses and corporations involving people working in teams. It also presents a new theory of personality extending, although still based on, the theory of C. G. Jung propounded nearly a century ago. But before doing this formally, it brings to the recently developed practice of teamology two new approaches that greatly simplify team formation procedures, and raise the quality of the smaller teams, the duets and trios. In its early days teamology used the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, soon replaced by a shorter questionnaire covering the same psychological territory. This led to quantitative transformation of the questionnaire scores onto Jung's underlying theory. This rigorous analysis found that the Type Table assumptions previously employed to transform the scores onto the Jung theory were unreliable and to many people inapplicable. A later seminar developed the easier way to construct teams described. It also clarified team organization by dividing Jung's cognitive modes into roles, with no additional computation needed. Further it learned to combine roles into "activities" to help form good small teams - duets and trios - a methodology not available earlier. The activity concept improves organization for larger teams as well. An "activity spreadsheet" available on the Internet is also provided. For the benefit of counselors and individuals interested in self-awareness, the post-Jungian role theory is formalized in Ch. 4, in which the shortcomings of earlier typologies, the Jungian Type Survey and the Type Table, are brought to light. The advantages of putting the type categories in order by score, as suggested by Reynierse, is applied, leading to an updated post-Jungian type indicator intended to replace the unordered category labels presently used. Short and inexpensive, this book is a simple text aimed mainly at university-level team courses focused primarily, but not exclusively, on the design of devices, systems, and human activities. In addition, it makes available to counselors and individuals a new post-Jungian development correcting and extending the personality theories currently in use.

Book The Adult Development of C G  Jung  RLE  Jung

Download or read book The Adult Development of C G Jung RLE Jung written by John-Raphael Staude and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1981, this study presents Jung’s theory of adult personality development, and analyses and interprets in its biographical and historical context the genesis and development of Jung’s theory of the individuation process. Dr Staude argues that an in-depth study of Jung’s life offers insights into the patterns and processes of adult development, and he focuses particularly on Jung’s writings during and immediately after his mid-life transition. He shows how Jung articulated his hard-won insights into adult development in his books and essays and into his analytic practice, and considers how Jung’s developmental theory relates to the changes he experienced in his own life and in his socio-historical environment. Dr Staude concludes that Jung’s emphasis on impersonal universals of human psychic development complements and supplements the personal emphasis of ego development theory and provides the foundations for a more holistic understanding of adult developmental psychology.

Download or read book The Power of Polarities written by John van der Steur and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First, Know Your Self. What explains extraordinary human achievement? When things are achieved against all odds? Whether you are an individual, team or organization, the key to human achievement lies in opening yourself up to introspection. Who am I? What am I good at? What do I want to do with my life? How can I get there? Next, understand the polarities in the personalities of yourself and others. The secret behind the power of polarities is that paradoxically they are intended to harmonize, not polarize. Their purpose is to balance, not disrupt each other. They then become an infinite inner source of growth and renewal that can be accessed by anyone, anytime, anywhere. Great achievements are grounded in the ability to harness the power of polarities and cover all the bases of the personality. This book uses a novel interpretation of Carl Jung's personality types to help you discover the answers to these questions. It can help you to: Understand your personality and its development Thrive in life's significant roles and relationships. Find the key to your genius Understand and take responsibility for your limitations Live your life with intention and have authentic impact Gain a sense of purpose, meaning and belonging Change and forge your destiny Be the best you can at what you do "The Power of Polarities is a lively and serious contribution to the literature on Jung's psychological types theory and its practical application. The emphasis on polarities is fundamental and salutary." Dr. Murray Stein, PhD, Jungian Analyst, Author, and former President of the International Association for Analytical Psychology.

Book Personality as a Factor Affecting the Use of Language Learning Strategies

Download or read book Personality as a Factor Affecting the Use of Language Learning Strategies written by Jakub Przybył and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-06 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explores the relationships between the personality traits of Polish university students learning English as a foreign language and their use of language learning strategies (LLS). It provides a solid theoretical background for the investigation of the interface between the two constructs, describes the applied analytical procedures in detail, and reports the results and implications of a large-scale study. Chapter 1 presents multiple perspectives on the investigation of human personality and presents insights from a selection of studies into the role of personality in foreign language learning. Chapter 2 addresses the construct of LLS, while Chapter 3 links strategy use to other individual learner characteristics, with a focus on personality. Chapter 4 sets the methodological framework for the empirical investigation, describes the rationale for conducting the study, and includes a thorough description of analytical procedures. Chapter 5 presents the results of the study and highlights their pedagogical implications. Finally, limitations of the study are presented and some directions for future research are suggested. The monograph will be of interest to scholars investigating the role of personality in SLA as well as graduate and postgraduate students in applied linguistics.

Book Psychological Types

Download or read book Psychological Types written by Carl Jung and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychological Types is one of Jung's most important and famous works. First published in English by Routledge in the early 1920s it appeared after Jung's so-called fallow period, during which he published little, and it is perhaps the first significant book to appear after his own confrontation with the unconscious. It is the book that introduced the world to the terms 'extravert' and 'introvert'. Though very much associated with the unconscious, in Psychological Types Jung shows himself to be a supreme theorist of the conscious. In putting forward his system of psychological types Jung provides a means for understanding ourselves and the world around us: our different patterns of behaviour, our relationships, marriage, national and international conflict, organizational functioning. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new foreword by John Beebe.

Book Analytical Psychology

Download or read book Analytical Psychology written by Carl Gustav Jung and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1935 Jung gave a now famous and controversial course of five lectures at the Tavistock Clinic in London. In them he presents, in lucid and compelling fashion, his theory of the mind and the methods he had used to arrive at his conclusions: dream analysis, word association and ‘active imagination.’ Immediately accessible to the general reader, the Tavistock lectures are a superb introduction to anyone coming to Jung’s psychology for the first time and crucial for understanding analytical psychology. A fascinating feature of the book is the inclusion of some of the questions posed to Jung at the end of each lecture. These questions, including those from leading psychoanalysts such as Wilfrid Bion, and the discussions that follow offer an outstanding example of a great thinker at the peak of their powers. Also amongst the audience was Samuel Beckett, who was deeply affected by what Jung had to say. With a new foreword by Kevin Lu

Book Re appraising C  G  Jung s Personality Theory

Download or read book Re appraising C G Jung s Personality Theory written by Clare Crellin and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: , Outside Jungian analytical psychology, Jung is categorised as a personality "theorist. Because, historically, evaluations of Jung's personality theory have given rise to myths, misrepresentations and misunderstandings about Jung's work, a re-appraisal of his reputation as a personality theorist is long overdue. The resulting marginalisation of his theory of personality restricts Jung scholarship, limits opportunities for research, and minimises the public accessibility of Jungian psychotherapy. My approach is hermeneutical. By surveying more than is usual in what is defined as Jung's personality theory I reveal a far wider scope to his ideas on personality than is generally appreciated. I discuss criteria for evaluating theories of personality and develop a broader set of subjective and objective criteria that reveal the relevance and value of Jung's theory. I argue that Jung restores the sense of unity of personality and brings a transcendent angle, broadening the scope of personality theory. In part I, I examine the place of religion in Jung's theory. I consider the close connection between Jung's work on alchemy and his key concepts: individuation and the self. I explore the links between Jung's use of active imagination in Liber Novus (Jung's Red Book) and his typology, and examine the function of Jung's concept of the archetypes in the formative and transformative processes of personality development. The second part focuses on evaluation. I critically review the presentation of Jung's theory in textbooks of personality from the 193 Os onwards and identify significant flaws in the representation of his life and theoretical ideas. I discuss their impact on Jung's reputation in the psychological professions. Finally, I apply my criteria to re-evaluating Jung's personality theory with particular focus on consciousness and the unconscious, and archetypes. I suggest possible directions for a programme of further evaluation and research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though Jung's main researches have centred on the subject of individuation as an adult ideal he has a unique contribution to make to the psychology of childhood. Jung repeatedly underlined the importance of the psychology of parents and teachers in a child's development and he emphasized that an unsatisfactory psychological relationship between parents may be an important cause of disorders in childhood. He maintained that all real education of children needs teachers who not only know how to learn but who can also develop their own personalities. Jung devotes a large part of the book to expounding his views on these important subjects. There is also an outline of the theory of child development, a delightful snapshot from the life of a girl called Anna and her parents, and a stimulating discussion of marriage as a psychological relationship. Finally there is a chapter on child development and individuation.
