Students’ Cognitive Ability in View of the Personality Type of Hippocrates Galenus

The personality type proposed by Hippocrates and Galenus has become a topic of discussion in the world of education. While it cannot be considered an accurate and valid measure of a student's cognitive ability, understanding personality type can help teachers or parents understand student learning styles and support learning more effectively and efficiently. Each student has a learning style that is different from one another. and understanding personality types can help identify student strengths and weaknesses and provide learning methods that fit student learning styles. This article discusses the personality types of Hippocrates and Galenus and their influence on students' cognitive abilities. This article also suggests that understanding personality type is only one of the factors that influence students' cognitive abilities, and effective learning strategies must consider other factors such as students' interests and motivation, learning objectives, and learning contexts. This article recommends several references about student personality types and cognitive abilities that can be used as teaching materials for teachers or parents.

Ensemble Learning Approach for Identifying Personality Traits based on Individuals' Behavior

Understanding human personality is essential for natural and social engagement. Arises a significant connection between users' personalities and their behavior. Our primary goal is to identify and classify individuals' personality traits based on their behaviors. Understanding personality types can help better understand preferences and potential differences between them. This study uses users' answers based on the questionnaire on personality to automatically identify the personality type based on behaviors. After pre-processing the data, we researched many classification techniques for automated recognition, including Naive Bayes, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Multilayer Perception (MLP), Random Forest, Logistic, and Decision Tree using a 10-fold cross-validation method. The second observational study combined all the algorithms using an Ensemble Learning algorithm, where by Vote algorithm. Accuracy, precision, recall, f-measure, and error values have been used to measure the systems' performance. According to the comparison analysis, SVM outperforms (85.8%) the other five personality trait detection algorithms. But after combing the five algorithms which contain the highest accuracy by Ensemble Learning algorithm obtained the highest performance (90.5%) than the SVM algorithm and obtained the highest recall, f-measure, and precision values, and the lowest error rates. It demonstrates that an ensemble learning approach that incorporates multiple distinct algorithms may yield greater accuracy than any one of its individual algorithms separately. Our findings are helpful for understanding how to manage and make a relationship with humans by predicting their personality earlier.

Understanding Personality Types and Multiple Intelligences of Hospitality and Tourism Management Graduating Students: Inputs to Skills Enhancement and Employability

The personality types and multiple intelligences of 108 randomly selected hospitality and tourism management graduating students from Wesleyan University Philippines were explored in this descriptive-correlational study. The findings revealed that the respondents were at the appropriate age to begin their professional careers. They were more relaxed, patient, and easy-going individuals. Bodily-kinesthetic, intrapersonal, and interpersonal intelligence were their top three intelligences, implying that they could excel as performers, salespeople, authors, skilled employees, and leaders. When they work in a firm that values collaboration and teamwork, they will perform better. Their personality types have nothing to do with their multiple intelligences.

Understanding the relevance of human rights in healthcare and nursing practice.

While the NHS aims to respect the human rights of every individual, it also has a wider social duty to promote equality in the services it provides. This means that the rights of individual patients are not absolute, because the aim of the NHS is to improve the overall health and well-being of the nation. For example, certain treatments may be withheld from individuals because of the excessive cost to the NHS, or concerns about its clinical effectiveness. This article explains the origins of human rights and their function, and examines the relationship between nursing care and human rights.

Understanding and applying personality types in healthcare communication

Understanding personality types can assist nurses in enhancing their understanding of themselves and their colleagues, which in turn can support effective communication. This article outlines the principles of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) - a personality inventory that aims to improve the understanding of psychological types - and details the characteristics of the MBTI's 16 different personality types. The article explores how these 16 personality types can influence communication within healthcare teams and between healthcare professionals. It also discusses how these personality types affect styles of nurse leadership and how an understanding of personality types can improve nurses' communication with patients.

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Integrated Intervention Program in Improving on Quality of Life and Personality Type in Heart Disease Patients

Background: Non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the main cause of death worldwide. Besides, major risk factors such as age, gender, race, and modifiable or psychological risk factors have a significant role in the incidence of CVDs. This study established an integrated intervention program based on psychological risk factors for Iranian cardiovascular patients, and tried to validate its effectiveness in improving quality of life and personality type. Objectives: Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of integrated intervention program in type D personality and quality of life among the cardiovascular patients. Methods: In an experimental randomized controlled trial, a total of 60 patients (29 - 42 years old, 67% males and 33% females, and all married) were assigned randomly either to the experimental (30 patients) or the control group (30 patients). The patients in the experimental group participated in the intervention program for one month. The content of the integrated intervention program included understanding the role of psychological factors on cardiovascular diseases, understanding personality types, understanding hardiness and resiliency, healthy heart lifestyle, thoughts and behavior, understanding coping styles and emotion regulation, understanding spirituality and personal growth, understanding social support, and learning relaxation techniques. Quality of life and personality type in two groups were measured through WHOQOL and type D personality questionnaire before and after the intervention. All analyses were conducted using SPSS version 20. Results: The patients in the experimental group had significantly more quality of life (P < 0.001) and less type D personality traits (P < 0.001), which support the effectiveness of the cardiac integrated intervention program. Conclusions: The results from meta-analyses indicated the role of psychological risk factors in the development of CVDs. The findings of the current study suggested that cardiac integrated intervention program increases the quality of life and reduces the type D personality traits in cardiovascular patients. Furthermore, it is recommended that cardiac care professionals use this effective treatment to improve the recovery of cardiac patients.

Understanding personality type: What do type dynamics tell us about life stages and stress reactions?

In the eighth article of her series, Anita Houghton explains how preferences interact and develop over time In the first article of this series it was claimed that the beauty of psychological type is that it provides a simple framework to describe ways in which people differ, while allowing room for great depth and complexity within it. In this article we start to explore the complexity that is type dynamics. The dynamic nature of type means that for each type there is a hierarchy of preferences and these develop at different stages of our lives. Type dynamics are also important in understanding how different types respond to stress. The two central letters of a type denote the functions - for example, S and T are the functions of the type ESTJ. One of these functions is dominant (in bold), and operates in either the extravert or the introvert mode, depending on that type's preference,1 and the other letter denotes the second, auxiliary function. If the dominant function is extraverted, the auxiliary function will be introverted, and vice versa, thus providing balance and support for the dominant. In the type ESTJ, the dominant function is extraverted T, whereas the auxiliary is introverted S. There is then a tertiary function, which is the opposite of the auxiliary function (so if the auxiliary function is sensing, the tertiary function will be intuition), and finally, there is an inferior function, which is the opposite of the dominant function (see box 1 for example). ### Box 1: Example of dynamics - ESTJ Dominant function Extraverted thinking What this type does best Auxilliary function … RETURN TO TEXT

Understanding personality type: How do you like to take in information? Sensing and intuition

In the third article of her series, Anita Houghton explains the two different ways in which people take in information and how both kinds of information processing can complement each other Some years ago I did an MSc, and the course was taught by a variety of lecturers, two of whom stick out in my memory. The reason I remember these two in particular is that they divided the group so sharply into those that liked one and those that liked the other. The first of these, let's call him David, lectured us on the subject of health economics, and his lectures would start with a title and then take that theme excitedly from one topic to another, pulling in one theory here, another theory there, and ending up with, well, a group of theories, and a group of facts, and some haphazard links between the two. At the end of these lectures, most us would have a piece of paper with the title at the top, a half written sentence, and absolutely nothing else. The other lecturer, Susan, taught medical sociology. She would take a subject, and then deliver a perfect list of what we needed to know. At the end of these lectures we would have an excellent set of notes, easy to read, easy to learn, and easy to reproduce. One group of students loved David's lectures. They were slightly disappointed to have buy books to supplement them, but that was easily offset by the sheer exhilaration of hearing him talk, the boundless theories, the different ways of looking at them, and the endless potential for new ideas and possibilities. The other group were bewildered and exasperated by …

Black Belt Types

AbstractAn essential component of the Six Sigma approach to business improvement, is the training of employees for the role of process improvement specialist. These people usually have the words ‘Black Belt’ in their job title. Their role varies from company to company, but it invariably involves extensive use of statistical techniques. We suggest that some of the time devoted to statistics training could usefully be spent considering the human dynamics of improvement projects. More specifically we explore the benefits for Black Belts of understanding personality types. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley &amp; Sons, Ltd.
