formed and created by outside influences. They believe that the

Origins of Personality Types : A 5 page paper discussing
specific questions of whether personality is learned or is a
condition of birth, as psychologist Carl Jung postulated early in
the century. There are several areas in which behaviorists and
Jungians view personality in similar fashion, but the one
underlying difference between them ensures that they will
remain separate. Whether personality is learned or is innate still
has to be empirically proven, but anecdotal evidence is
weighted in favor of those following Carl Jung's theories.
