| 520 | |a The psychological type of 1032 students of Dhammakāya meditation at Buddhist centres in the UK and US was surveyed using the 50-question Francis Psychological Type Scales and compared with their respective normative populations. Meditators' psychological type generally showed significantly higher proportions of INFJ (5-8x higher), INTJ (6-8x higher), IN (2-3½x higher), NJ (3-5x higher), NF (2x higher) and N (2x higher). Although these meditators did not self-identify as Buddhist, they showed psychological type profiles similar to UK and US convert Buddhist attendants of temples and meditation centres. Further analysis of meditators opting specifically for the Dhammakāya method of meditation showed a tendency towards dominant sensing (Dt.S) and the ISFJ type, indicating the predisposition for visualization (that is the hallmark of this method). Based on this evidence, the paper proposes a possible mechanism for individuation through meditation practice that differs between introverts and extraverts. | ||
