Cognitive Function Brain Map

This visualization draws on EEG mapping research showing that while every person uses all regions of the brain, we don’t use them with the same patterns or priorities. Each personality type has a preferred neural flow state, a characteristic way the brain engages its cognitive functions. Jung’s model describes the hierarchy behind this pattern, and the “stack” reflects the order in which your brain naturally relies on these processes.

Current neuroscience supports the idea that your core cognitive architecture (your Type) is relatively stable. It represents how your brain is wired to process information. What can change is how effectively you use the rest of that architecture. Over time, you can strengthen underused functions, build new neural pathways, and shift from a narrow, specialized pattern to a more balanced and flexible one. Growth isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about expanding your access to the mind you already have.

This model is not a medical or diagnostic tool. Its purpose is to bridge Jung’s cognitive theory with modern EEG findings and present these ideas in a way you can see and interact with. Mapping each function to a brain region is a simplified representation that makes internal processes easier to understand.

If you want to go deeper into how these functions operate in the brain, explore the simulation above. Each selection highlights the region most associated with that cognitive process, allowing you to see the neural pattern behind the theory.
