16. Katherine Briggs & Isabel Myers
Isabel Briggs Myers (October 18, 1897 – May 5, 1980)[1][2] was an American psychological theorist. She was co-creator, with her mother, of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI).
She was home-schooled by her mother (Katharine Cook Briggs, January 3, 1875 – 1968)[3] and went on to earn a bachelor's degree in political science from Swarthmore College. In 1918 she married Clarence Myers.
Katharine Briggs read Carl Jung's book, Psychological Types and recommended it to Isabel Myers; the mother and daughter then formulated the MBTI together. Later in life, Myers collaborated with Mary McCaulley to conduct tests of her research and of the MBTI.
When World War II began, Isabel Myers sought a way to help by finding a means for people to understand rather than destroy each other. In addition, she noticed many people taking jobs out of patriotism, but hating the tasks that went against their grain instead of using their gifts. She decided it was time to put Jung's ideas about type to practical use. A type indicator was needed. My father, Lyman J. Briggs, was a research physicist. At the time that we actually got to making the Type Indicator he was the Director of the Bureau of Standards in Washington. Research was what he cared about most, and so I grew up thinking that the greatest fun in the world was to find out something that nobody knew yet, and maybe you could dig it out.

17. Carl Jung - Swiss Psychiatrist 1875-1961
“Differences among people are not random.
They form patterns – types.”
Psychological Types, 1921
Carl Gustav Jung (/jʊŋ/; Swiss German pronunciation: [ˈkarl ˈɡʊstaf jʊŋ]; 26 July 1875 – 6 June 1961) was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology. His work has been influential not only in psychiatry but also in philosophy, anthropology, archaeology, literature, religious studies, quantum mechanics and psychobiology as well as neuroscience.

Carl Jung (1875–1961) was a Swiss psychiatrist, an influential thinker and the founder of Analytical Psychology.
Jung considered the process of individuation necessary for a person to become whole. This is a psychological process of integrating the opposites including the conscious with the unconscious while still maintaining their relative autonomy.[2] Its aim is wholeness through the integration of unconscious forces and motivations underlying human behavior.
Many pioneering psychological concepts were originally proposed by Jung, including the Archetype, the Collective Unconscious, the Complex, and synchronicity.
A popular psychometric instrument, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), has been principally developed from Jung's theories.
Analytical psychology (or Jungian psychology) is the school of psychology originating from the ideas of Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung.
