Recently I stumbled upon this research paper that I found to be quite interesting. It's about the words that people with a certain personality type tend to use when they use social media like Facebook. Especially the word clouds caught my eye in how staggering the difference can be.

Now this study is based on the Big Five, which distinguishes Openness, Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism and Agreeableness, but do you think that we could also relate this to cognitive types? Are certain cognitive functions leading to an increase in certain kinds of words that people use?
