Prometheus Unbound 
Reblogged this on aasci.
Interesting, although I’m always a little skeptical of these kind of theories. Often it turns out that is just a matter of speculation. It’s like the personality theory behind the Myers Briggs Type Indicator, one of the most used inventories in the world with more than a million Americans taking it every year. That test actually fails to validate the underlying theory. Same goes for multiple intelligence, which was developed by Howard Gardner. Turns out there isn’t even a test for these supposed intelligences.
That said, the ideas behind MBTI and multiple intelligence as well as emotional style are interesting. But they need to be viewed with a critical eye since they are designed as commercial products first and foremost.
