This workshop focuses on psychological type development in three age segments. We examine the differences between immaturity and immature development. Discussions focus on identifying the level of self-control and function management expected at each level. Learning how to manage self and learning to recognize developmental levels in others is explored, as well as strategies to encourage development and adjust for developmental differences.
Objectives: Participants will...
1. Look at type development for three age spans.
2. Discuss skill expectations for each age group as it relates to type development.
3. Distinguish immaturity from immature development.
4. Identify strategies for accommodating type developmental levels in communications and interactions
Dr. Elizabeth Murphy is a consulting psychologist and staff development trainer for schools across the U.S. She is best known for the Murphy Meisgeier Type Indicator for Children

Tuesday, November 16, 5:30 – 8:00 pm

Did you hear the one about the Extraverted Intuitive’s exercise program?
He goes to the sporting goods store, has a great chat with the sales person, buys all the gear, goes to the gym, joins the club, has a great meeting with the personal trainer, makes a connection with everyone in the club. Unfortunately, he can’t understand why he hasn’t lowered his blood pressure! Or the one about the Introvert who joins the health club but never goes because they only offer “group” exercise classes? There is a story for every type preference on what moves us to move . . . or not!
This workshop will explore how the body is a tool for type development. Using the elements from a variety of movement forms, participants will discover how the types respond, what intrigues or repels them, and what to do about it. Participation in the program is open to all levels of fitness. Some movement will be demonstrated and guided (movement is optional). Participants should wear comfortable clothing and bring a towel or mat.
Dori Wilson is a certified Nia technique instructor (Nia is a mind, body, spirit fusion fitness program) and
Dawn Scott-Raxter is a Life Coach.

The Developing Child: Using Jungian Type to Understand Children
by Elizabeth Murphy
1992, Consulting Psychologists Press, Inc.
ISBN 0-89106-060-X
Is doing homework in front of the TV good or bad? Is the answer the same for all children? Does self-esteem develop differently for thinking preference children than it does for feeling preference children?
Speaking to your heart and mind, Elizabeth Murphy guides you through the framework of the sixteen psychological types to a valley of understanding. Paths abound for developing positive, practical, workable strategies to foster the growth and development of the special children in our lives. Based on years of personal experiences as a licensed school psychologist and a mother of two, Ms Murphy directs us through the maze of normal personality differences. She conscientiously and consistently increases our awareness of the family relationship between parent and child and the school relationship between teacher and student.
Dr. Murphy decries any "simple formulae” but I think I found her formula
in
these 148 pages:
Sensitizing + awareness (16 types) + respect/honor +
encouragement/affirmation = improved adult/child relationships > enhanced
child development.
Her vivid descriptions of complex processes are artfully woven throughout the thirteen chapters, and specific references to each attitude and function are carefully detailed. Addressing the concept of type, Dr. Murphy easily adapts multifaceted ideas for understanding a child. She likens personality development to that of a seed that brings forth a stem, then leaves, then a bud, then a beautiful blossom--perhaps a sunflower.
Children’s success is increased if they and the adults around them become aware of and understand their natural approach, its strengths and what is needed to access those strengths. For example, Dr. Murphy reminds us that "Taking in the World" is the processing of information. She questions: Is the child reorganizing information into holistic/global patterns (Intuitive), or building conclusions based on a sequential organization of information lending itself to a memory chain (Sensing)? But Dr. Murphy does not leave us with just heightened awareness. She carefully directs us to the different kinds of practical help needed for jump-starting an assignment and for successfully completing a task. Children need different kinds of help depending upon how they process information. Albeit each child may come to the same conclusion based on the information they process, nevertheless, their paths to get there are different.
Ideas flower. Strategies both for Home and School Applications flow throughout the book. Raising questions, Dr. Murphy gently guides us to answers and to a new/renewed respect for the variety of human experience and perceptions.

Editor’s note: The reason why Sensing and Intuition are two ends of one scale on the
MBTI® is because they are diametrically opposed to one another. To the Sensate the Intuitive has his or her head the clouds with their grandiose ideas. To the Intuitive, the Sensate is a ‘stick in the mud’ with their attention to detail. The following vignette is a good example. It is an
MBTI® take off of “Who’s on First?” by that famous team of Abbott and Costello.
COSTELLO CALLS TO BUY A COMPUTER FROM ABBOTT . . .
Abbott: Super Duper computer store. May I help you?
Costello: Thanks. I’m setting up an office in my den and I'm thinking about buying a computer.
Abbott: Mac?
Costello: No, the name's Lou.
Abbott: Your computer?
Costello: I don't own a computer. I want to buy one.
Abbott: Mac?
Costello: I told you, my name's Lou.
Abbott: What about Windows?
Costello: Why? Will it get stuffy in here?
Abbott: Do you want a computer with Windows?
Costello: I don't know. What will I see when I look in the windows?
Abbot: Wallpaper.
Costello: Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.
Abbot: Software for Windows?
Costello: No. On the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What have you got?
Abbott: Office.
Costello: Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything?
Abbott: I just did.
Costello: You just did what?
Abbott: Recommend something.
Costello: You recommended something?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: For my office?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: OK, what did you recommend for my office?
Abbott: Office.
Costello: Yes, for my office!
Abbott: I recommend Office with Windows.
Costello: I already have an office with windows! OK. Let’s just say I'm sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal. What do I need?
Abbott: Word.
Costello: What word?
Abbott: Word in Office.
Costello: The only word in office is office.
Abbott: The Word in Office for Windows.
Costello: Which word in office for windows?
Abbott: The Word you get when you click the blue "W".
COSTELLO FINALLY GETS HIS COMPUTER BUT NOW THERE ARE OTHER QUESTIONS:
Abbott: Super Duper Computer Store, may I help you.
Costello: Can I watch movies on the Internet?
Abbott: Yes, you want Real One.
Costello: Maybe a real one, maybe a cartoon. What I watch is none of your business. Just tell me what I need!
Abbott: Real One.
Costello: f it's a long movie I also want to see reel 2, 3 & 4. Can I watch them?
Abbott: Of course.
Costello: Great! With what?
Abbott: Real One.
Costello: OK, I'm at my computer and I want to watch a movie. What do I do?
Abbott: You click the blue "1".
Costello: I click the blue one what?
Abbott: The blue "1".
Costello: Is that different from the blue w?
Abbott: The blue "1" is Real One and the blue "W" is Word.
Costello: What word?
Abbott: The Word in Office for Windows.
Costello: But there are three words in "office for windows"!
Abbott: No, just one. But it's the most popular Word in the world.
Costello: It is?
Abbott: Yes, but to be fair, there aren't many other Words left. It pretty much wiped out all the other Words out there.
Costello: And that word is real one?
Abbott: Real One has nothing to do with Word. Real One isn't even part of Office.
Costello: STOP! Don't start that again. What about financial bookkeeping? You have anything I can track my money with?
Abbott: Money.
Costello: That's right. What do you have?
Abbott: Money.
Costello: I need money to track my money?
Abbott: It comes bundled with your computer.
Costello: What's bundled with my computer?
Abbott: Money.
Costello: Money comes with my computer?
Abbott: Yes and at no extra charge.
Costello: I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much?
Abbott: One copy.
Costello: Isn't it illegal to copy money?
Abbott: Microsoft gave us a license to copy money.
Costello: They can give you a license to copy money?
Abbott: Why not? THEY OWN IT!
A FEW DAYS LATER
Abbott: Super Duper computer store. May I help you?
Costello: How do I turn my computer off?
Abbott: Click on "START.” |
