Frequently asked questions

What are the four temperaments?

Sanguine (talkative and lively), choleric (decisive and a leader), melancholic (deep and detail-oriented) and phlegmatic (calm and conciliatory). The classification comes from ancient Greek medicine, from Hippocrates and Galen.

Can I have more than one temperament?

Yes. Almost everyone has a main temperament and a secondary one, and the result shows both. The combination usually describes a person better than a single type.

Are the temperaments science?

No. The theory of the four humors was abandoned by medicine. Today the temperaments are used as a simple language for self-knowledge, not as a diagnosis.
