explorer builder director negotiator She's written books, too.
Four personality types Fisher distinguishes between four personality types each of which she associates with a body chemical.[8] The corresponding Platonic term - as Fisher identified the types herself - and the resulting corresponding Keirsey temperament (according to the speculation of some readers, not Fisher herself) can be seen in parentheses. However, Fisher's system allows for 12 combinations, not 16 types like Keirsey, meaning that there cannot be a perfect correspondence between them: * explorer (artistic, Artisan temperament, orange) - dopamine * negotiator (intuitive, Idealist temperament, blue) - estrogen * director (reasoning, Rational temperament, green) - testosterone * builder (sensible, Guardian temperament, gold) - serotonin.
