Talk:Jungian cognitive functions

[edit] Some post-cleanup thoughts

This article is not about "cognitive functions", but rather about personality and what is termed "cognitive style". Cognitive functions refer to concepts in cognitive psychology or cognitive neuroscience. I suggest that this article is renamed to a title that reflects its actual content.

This could probably do with more discussion by someone who actually understands of what the whole business about the attitude of the tertiary actually means, and how you get from the "dichotomies" to intro/extra-verted versions of the four basic cognitive functions, since all four of them are included in just half of the dichotomies.
The title should really be singular by WP:MOS, but cognitive function (correctly, in my view) redirects to cognition, so I'm not sure whether that needs fixing.
I really don't like the sloppy use of "energy" in these sorts of things. It's a very well defined physical concept.
What do all the ?s in the Jung table mean? Did he just assert that auxiliary and inferior functions existed, but didn't go into detail?
