The cognitive, personality and interest profiles of homogeneous classes formed with reference to the Jung Personality Questionnaire. The principal aim of the study was to determine whether individuals can be classified into natural classes according to the dimensions of the Jung Personality Questionnaire (JPQ), viz. introversionextraversion, feeling-thinking, intuition-sensing and perception-judging. Five clusters were obtained by means of a cluster analysis. Multivariate analysis of variance revealed statistically significant differences between the obtained clusters in terms of the mean vectors of scores from the Senior Aptitude Test (SAT), the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16-PF) and the 19 Field Interest Inventory (19-FII). One-way analysis of variance was used to test the differences amongst the five clusters in terms of the above mentioned mean scores. Statistically significant results were obtained. Opsomming Die hoofdoel van die studie was om die teorie van Jung te gebruik ten einde vas te stel of persone in natuurlike klasse ingedeel kan word aan die hand van die vier bipolere persoonlikheidsdimensies van die Jung- persoonlikheidsvraelys (JPV), naamlik introversie- ekstraversie, gevoel-denke, intuisie-waarneming en persepsiebeoordeling. Deur middel van bondelontleding is vyf bondels verkry en met behulp van meerveranderlike variansieontleding is vasgestel dat die bondels statistics beduidend van mekaar verskil ten opsigte van die vektore van gemiddeldes van die Senior Aanlegtoets (SAT), die Sestien-persoonlikheidsfaktorvraelys (16-PF), en die Negentienveld-belangstellingsvraelys (19-VBV). Die verskille tussen bondels ten opsigte van die bogemelde tellings, is deur middel van eenrigting-variansieontleding ondersoek en statistics beduidende resultate is verkry.
