The Eight Function Model and Archetypes

Dr. John Beebe discusses the eight function model and how it relates to archetypes. The eight function types consist of extroverted thinking, introverted thinking, extroverted feeling, introverted feeling, introverted sensation, extroverted sensation, extroverted intuition, and introverted intuition. Each function can manifest in either an extroverted or introverted aspect. Beebe adds the concept of archetypes, which represent positions in the psyche where the types can appear. This model allows for a thorough understanding of how different functions and archetypes can shape and influence consciousness.
