✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Carl Jung classified personality in his analytical psychology based on the direction of energy (introversion and extroversion) along with four core psychological functions:
- Thinking: Logical evaluation and understanding.
- Feeling: Subjective valuation of emotional experiences.
- Sensation: Perception of reality through the physical senses.
- Intuition: Perception beyond consciousness or immediate physical reality.
These four functions combine with the two attitudes (introversion and extroversion) to form Jung's primary personality types.
