Jung's Personality

  • Personality is divided into extroversion and introversion.
  • Recognized four basic functions: thinking, feeling, sensing, and intuiting.
  • These functions, combined with attitudes, create eight personality types.

Levels of the Psyche

  • Composed of a conscious and unconscious mind.
  • The unconscious is further divided into the personal and collective unconscious.
  • The personal unconscious contains suppressed memories, thoughts, and feelings.
  • The collective unconscious contains universal, inborn models of people, behaviors, or personalities that affect human behavior; archetypes.

Archetypes

  • Universal, inborn models of people, behaviors, or personalities.
  • Four famous archetypes: Persona (the side of personality we show to others), Shadow (the dark side of personality), Anima/Animus (feminine/masculine side of men/women) and Self (the unified consciousness and unconsciousness of an individual).
  • Examples of archetypes: Great Mother, Wise Old Man, Hero

The Self

  • The Self represents fulfillment, completion, or perfection.
  • The most comprehensive of all the archetypes, uniting the others.
  • Symbol is the mandala.

Dynamics of Personality

  • Causality and Teleology: Present events are motivated by goals in the future, as well as by past experiences.
  • Progression and Regression: Outside world adaptation involves backward flow of psychic energy, and inner world adaptation involves forward flow.

Psychological Types

  • Attitudes: readiness of the psyche to act or react to a situation. Often come in pairs, one conscious and the other unconscious. Introverts focus on inner reflection; Extraverts engage with the outer world.
  • Functions: Cognitive mental processes relevant regardless of situation. Combining attitudes and functions creates 8 types of orientations. Thinking, feeling, sensation, and intuition are the four key functions.

Jung's Methods of Investigation

  • Word Association Test: Subjects respond to words with the first word that comes to mind to uncover unconscious feelings.
  • Dream Analysis: Jungian interpretation uncovers themes from the personal and collective unconscious, aiding self-realization.

  • Arises from needs(basic needs and zonal needs), and anxiety. Needs can include biological ones like hunger as well as basic needs for psychological safety and security.
  • Anxiety: a disjunctive tension, requiring no specific action for relief. considered a very disruptive factor in healthy interpersonal relationships; more detrimental to a person than tension without feeling of anxiety.
