Hyötypuolen
Hyötypuolen is a fictional personality typing system developed by Finnish psychiatrist Edvin Heimler. Created in the 1930s, it aims to categorize individuals into one of five distinctive personality groups. Each group is characterized by specific traits, with the goal of providing insight into a person's behavior, strengths, and weaknesses.
According to Heimler, the five personality types are divided based on a combination of factors such as
* Dictator: considered to be relatively rare, individuals with this type are described as being authoritative and
* Mediator: known for their diplomatic nature, mediators are expected to act as peacekeepers and objectively assess
* Sentinal: characterized by stability and reliability, sentinals are seen as leaders who maintain order and consistency.
* Skepter: often skeptical and questioning, this type is said to have a naturally inquisitive nature.
* Laisser: known for their open-mindedness and receptiveness, individuals with this type are expected to be adaptable
