Since the early 1900's, when the Psychology of the ancient Greeks was cast aside as too difficult for intellectuals to study, and they instead bought into the delusional ideas of B.F. Skinner, and his "behaviorism", the personality of Man became more and more a series of enumerated symptoms, grouped together and then labeled as some "type" of personality.
To those limited to intellectualism [which means little or no access to the faculty of intuition] "thinking" about symptoms helps them imagine that such thinking means something. All it means is that all possible human behavior can be grouped into categories. This does not, of course, tell us the "reason" a person has the particular set of behavioral symptoms that resemble others with the same symptoms. But for those whose only access to life is via physical phenomena and intellectualism, thinking "about" things helps pass the time.
The reason a person has a particular personality is that such a personality best fulfills the needs of that person relative to the http://about-psychology.com/karma.html Karma that person designed for this life. Both the persons MIND http://about-psychology.com/MIND.html and the http://about-psychology.com/apapsyche.htmlApapsyche of the person work together to create a personality and a Psychology that will best serve the Fate Karma of that person for this life.
The majority of a persons personality "are" Esoteric, and incapable of being discovered or perceived by ones brain or physical senses. But, of course there will always be those who are unable to study the Esoteric dimensions of Man, and for them "thinking" about the behavioral of Man will remain an interesting thing to do.
