Integrating Cognitive Architecture with Personality Patterns Abstract Most theories of intelligence and personality describe either how humans think or how they differ—but rarely both in a unified framework. This article proposes an integration of a functional cognitive model (Input – Processing – Output) with Jungian and post-Jungian personality theories (including Myers–Briggs and Volko Personality Patterns) into a coherent theory of human thinking and experiencing. The key insight is that cognition and personality operate on different explanatory levels—and only their integration yields a complete picture. 1. The Fragmentation Problem in Theories of Mind Modern psychology suffers from a structural split: Cognitive theories explain mechanisms (memory, reasoning, processing speed) Personality theories explain preferences (styles, attitudes, dispositions) Psychometrics measures fragments of both, often without theoretical unity As a result, we know: how fast ...

Abstract Traditional intelligence testing focuses almost exclusively on internal cognitive processing. Yet in real intellectual life—science, philosophy, leadership, and increasingly artificial intelligence—what ultimately matters is not merely having understanding, but expressing it. This article argues that intelligence assessment systematically neglects output quality and proposes a new complementary construct: the Externalization Quotient (EOQ) . 1. The Hidden Assumption Behind IQ Tests Modern intelligence tests are built on an implicit assumption: Intelligence is something that happens inside the mind. Input (perception, memory) and processing (reasoning, abstraction) are carefully operationalized and measured. Output—language, explanation, communication—is treated as a contaminant variable rather than an object of study. This design choice made sense historically. Psychometrics aimed to be: language-minimal culture-fair objectively scorable Expression, by...
