I guess for reference, here’s a slightly more complete version of the personality taxonomy:
Normative: Happy, social, emotionally expressive. Respects authority and expects others to do so too.
Anxious: Afraid of speaking up, of breaking the rules, and of getting noticed. Tries to be alone as a result. Doesn’t trust that others mean well.
Wild: Parties, swears, and is emotionally unstable. Breaks rules and supports others (… in doing the same?)
Avoidant: Contrarian, intellectual, and secretive. Likes to be alone and doesn’t respect rules or cleanliness.
In practice people would be combinations of these archetypes, rather than purely being one of them. In some versions, the Normative type split into three:
Jockish: Parties and avoids intellectual topics.
Steadfast: Conservative yet patient and supportive.
Perfectionistic: Gets upset over other people’s mistakes and tries to take control as a result.
This would make it as fully expressive as the Big Five.
… but there was some mathematical trouble in getting it to be replicable and “nice” if I included 6 profiles, so I’m expecting to be stuck at 4 types unless I discover some new mathematical tricks.
