[edit] Merge of Isabel Briggs Myers & Katharine Cook Briggs

There is no sign of notability on the mother (other than confusion with Katherine Mary Briggs) after 16 months. If evidence of sufficient notability to justify a separate article emerges, on can be created to replace the rdr that will be left after the merge.

[edit] Psychologist?

IMO, there is no question that (since it is for stub sorting purposes), she deserves a "psychologist stub" tag.

However, at Category:Psychologists we find

A psychologist is a practitioner of psychology. The American Psychological Association has issued a guideline that only those who hold a Ph.D. or Psy.D. degree in psychology or a closely related field should call themselves "psychologists."

(BTW IMO that overlooks the recognized 19th-century founders of the field, but that is before her time.) She seems to have made recognized contributions to the field, but that and a BA in poli sci makes you, well, a non-notable political scientist.

But IMO her bio does pertain to Category:Psychology
