Immanuel Kant's Contribution to Temperament Theory
In the 18th century, philosopher Immanuel Kant expanded on Galen's temperament theory. He concurred with the idea that every individual fits into one of four distinct, non-overlapping temperament categories. Kant's main contribution was the creation of a detailed list of traits to describe the personality of a person corresponding to each of the four temperaments.
