# About FourType

Learn who created FourType, how the temperament test content is written, and how to use the quiz responsibly.

FourType is a free four temperaments quiz and self-reflection project created by Ian Goh. It is designed for practical self-knowledge, not clinical diagnosis, hiring, medical, or high-stakes assessment. The project separates ancient temperament language from modern personality science and explains Choleric, Sanguine, Melancholic, Phlegmatic, and blended subtype patterns in everyday terms.
