“16-type psychology (≒MBTI)“"and"”Enneagram“This is a personality assessment, and in psychology, it's called "typology."
Typology is
Daijirin Third Edition
From individual eventsWe will extract several similarities and represent and describe them using typical typologies.A methodological approach that attempts to examine the essence and structure of a group of phenomena by analyzing them. It is particularly found in psychology, cultural anthropology, linguistics, and biology. Also known as typology.
- (MBTI) is the type that suits you best, in other words,Find your "Best Fit Type"We will do so (Quoted from the MBTI Association website and written by the author)Sei Honda (Narukin/Narukin)、Twitter・Facebook(Modified)
- The Enneagram categorizes people's personalities into nine types (personality typology). Typology is,Similar personalities can be categorized into several types.It attempts to comprehensively understand a person's entire personality. (Quoted from the Japan Enneagram Association website)
Typology discards individuality.
In other words,“"Typology" is a field of study that classifies people into types and then discards any individuality that falls outside of those classifications.You could also say that. For example, the MBTI, which is a "typology," forces you to be classified into one of 16 types. The Enneagram classifies people into 9 types.
In other words,MBTI onceENTP typeIf we classify you as such (unless there is a subsequent type change), we will treat you as an ENTP.Discard other individualitiesThe same applies to the Enneagram.one timeType 6If you are classified as such, unless there is a change, we will treat you as a Type 6.Ignore other individual characteristicsYes, that's what I would do. In the example I just gave, it's because that's the type that best fits according to the MBTI or Enneagram type classification.
As you read about ENTPs, you'll likely find yourself thinking, "That applies to me," or "That's exactly me."This is natural because you're choosing options that fit your type (this is the difference between this and blood type or birthday fortune-telling).。
However, as I read the explanation, I realized that I fit the description of an ENTP,There are a few slight differences.You might think, "But..."I'll deliberately ignore that part (the part that falls outside the ENTP framework).Yes, we will deliberately ignore your individuality that falls outside the box.
What's so good about it?You might have thought that.
This is natural for anyone interested in the mind or their own identity.Because you are "you and no one else" in the world.
Even if you classify someone into a million categories, it's impossible to truly represent them.That's because there are 7 billion people, and each one is different, so we have to classify them into 7 billion categories. Furthermore, if we think about it more deeply,Typological theory is constrained by the fact that people must be represented in "words," making it impossible to fully express a person's individuality.is.

Methodology for utilizing typology
So why,Is there any appeal to typology that discards individuality that doesn't fit within the mold?
it is"Because there are benefits to making the most of the parts that are most similar."is."To learn about the successes and failures of seniors who are similar to me, and to use that knowledge effectively to improve my own life."That's right.
Similarities between typology and body type diagnosis
Discarding individual personality traits isWe can also use a physical analogy.
Let's say your weight is 110 kilograms.Let's say you undergo a "body type diagnosis" and are classified into a "body type category."This means forcibly categorizing someone as "obese" and ignoring other physical characteristics.That is. In other words,There, you exist only as an "obese person." Even though you are classified as obese, and your height and facial hair are different,is.
For example, let's say another senior acquaintance of mine was also classified as "obese." However,You weigh 110 kg while your senior weighs 130 kg, so even though you're both "obese," there are some differences.surelyYou also have a protruding belly, just like your senior, but while you have thick, splendid hair, your senior has thinning hair, so they might dislike being categorized as "obese."
What is the significance of undergoing a body type analysis (personality analysis)?
Nevertheless, there is still value in getting a body type analysis and utilizing its services.
first,You can recognize the difference between yourself and others by undeniably being "obese."Furthermore,You can also avoid the mistakes of your seniors.(If successful, we can pursue it.)
For example, let's say that the senior colleague mentioned earlier ate too much pizza, accumulated too much fat in the blood vessels of his heart, and died from a myocardial infarction (heart disease).
Let's say you also love eating pizza and greasy food.
Now,Is there anything I can learn from a senior colleague who is also classified as "overweight" and shares the same "tastes (preferences)"?
that's right,You can start reducing the amount of pizza you eat right now.
Conversely, if you are tall, and an acquaintance of yours is also tall and has succeeded as a model, then it's safe to say that you also have a high chance of succeeding as a model. It might be a good idea to contact a modeling agency.
The significance of typology
Thus,Classifying similar individuals into "frameworks, categories, and types" allows us to learn about the patterned successes and failures of those who came before us, which is of great significance. This enables us to anticipate and address typical success and failure patterns.You will understand that knowing many patterns similar to your own and increasing your coping mechanisms can be extremely helpful in improving your life.
That is the significance of studying typology, and it is also the reason why I, Narkin, created this website.I sincerely hope this site will serve as a valuable guide for your learning, and also as a guide for myself.
