What Temperament Are You? by eugy45(m): 10:59am On Apr 18, 2015
First we have to knw wah a Temperament is:

-Temperament
In psychology temperament refers to those aspects of an individual's personality, such as introversion or extroversion, that are often regarded as innate rather than learned.

The four temperament types:

-Sanguine
The sanguine temperament is traditionally associated with air. People with this
temperament tend to be lively, sociable, carefree,
TALKative, and pleasure-seeking. They may be
warm-hearted and optimistic. They can make
new friends easily, be imaginative and artistic, and often have many ideas. They can be flighty and changeable; thus sanguine personalities may struggle with following tasks all the way through and be chronically late or forgetful. Pedagogically, they can be best reached through
awakening their love for a subject and admiration of people.

-Choleric
The choleric temperament is traditionally
associated with fire. People with this temperament tend to be egocentric and
extroverted. They may be excitable, impulsive,
and restless, with reserves of aggression, energy, or passion, and try to instill that in others.
They tend to be task-oriented people and are
focused on getting a job done efficiently; their
motto is usually "do it now." They can be
ambitious, strong-willed and like to be in charge.
They can show leadership, are good at planning, and are often practical and solution-oriented. They appreciate receiving respect and esteem for their work.
Pedagogically, they can be best reached through
mutual respect and appropriate challenges that recognize their capacities.

-Melancholic
The melancholic temperament is traditionally
associated with the element of earth. People with
this temperament may appear serious, introverted, cautious or even suspicious. They can become pre-occupied with the tragedy and cruelty in the world and are susceptible to depression and moodiness. They may be focused
and conscientious. They often prefer to do things
themselves, both to meet their own standards and because they are not inherently sociable. Pedagogically, they can be best met by
awakening their sympathy for others and the suffering of the world.

-Phelgmatic
The phlegmatic temperament is traditionally
associated with water. People with this
temperament may be inward and private,
thoughtful, reasonable, calm, patient, caring, and
tolerant. They tend to have a rich inner life, seek
a quiet, peaceful atmosphere, and be content with themselves. They tend to be steadfast,
consistent in their habits, and thus steady and faithful friends. Pedagogically, their interest is often awakened by experiencing others' interest in a subject. People of this temperament may appear
somewhat ponderous or clumsy. Their speech tends to be slow or appear hesitant.

So which are You??

Are they sure its complete? They should research again, there maybe other temperaments or a combination of two or more. Cos I can't seem to place mine among the 4. Maybe I'm wrong!

Re: What Temperament Are You? by Nobody: 6:22pm On Apr 18, 2015
This method of classifying temperaments/personalities is a fallacy in itself.

Carl Jung/Myers briggs method of classification is the accurate and generally accepted method.
Re: What Temperament Are You? by Nobody: 6:51pm On Apr 18, 2015
I am all of the above depending on the situation, circumstance, mood etc.

I can hardly be boxed down to a personality type. It's always been like this ever since early in grade school when I started taking these personality profile tests. Results always show I am a mixed nut. grin grin. Psychologists tell me that it's rare, but it happens.

I am proud multi-personality; I switch 'em up, mix 'em up, shake 'em up....as the occasion dictates.

*PS: for those who think multi personality disorder; it is NOT a disorder* It becomes a disorder when it interfere with functioning as a person.

I don't exactly buy into the temperament classification. Too narrow... Too restricted.
Re: What Temperament Are You? by Olami90: 7:07pm On Apr 18, 2015
Melancholy(80%)-Choleric(20%).
Combination of two - Melchol
