Exploring the differences in his temperament from two other pioneers of depth psychology, Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler, the Swiss psychiatrist C. G. Jung developed his personality types theory as a flexible, four-function two-attitude model of introversion and extraversion. The basis for the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, it is still widely used for assessing individual type orientation. The MBTI is prominent in couples and family therapy, vocational counseling, coaching, and organizational development. In psychoanalysis and psychotherapy, psychological types assessment is a key to interpreting dream figures, recognizing complexes, integrating projections, and the dynamics of transference and counter-transference.
