The Godfather of Socionics/MBTI personal thoughts on typology systems:
I'm just curious if this influences your belief in Socionics in any way, shape or form?“…the opinion has gotten about that my method…consists in fitting [people] into this system and giving them corresponding ‘advice.’ This regrettable misunderstanding completely ignores the fact that this kind of classification is nothing but a childish parlour game…My typology is far rather a critical apparatus serving to sort out and organize the welter of empirical material, but not in any sense to stick labels on people at first sight.” C.G. Jung, Psychological Types
