The Keirsey Temperament Awards for 2013
Keirsey Temperament Awards 2011
Keirsey Temperament Awards 2012
Each year an individual is awarded from each of the Four Temperaments: Artisan, Guardian, Idealist, and Rational. And we acknowledge this year’s passing of well known individuals who exhibited their Keirsey Temperament, In Memoriam.
The awards are given to individuals who are usually “famous” and have significantly impacted the world, as to illustrate and highlight the Four Temperaments. Keirsey Temperament Theory maintains all four Temperaments play important roles in society and we need all kinds of people to use their developed natural talents, to do the best at what they do best.
The selection is difficult, for sometimes Temperament is hidden because we are looking at these individuals from a far. Usually I don’t know the individuals personally, and only through the media am I familiar with these people. I am the judge and jury, with the suggestions from those are interested in Keirsey Temperament.

Roger Ebert actually took the test and tweeted about it. His result of ENFP is believable to me.

Really! Do you have a reference? Of course, that is Myers-Briggs terminology, but I could believe it. Hard to get things right from afar. Shows as a Provider, however, both Champions and Providers are Collaborators. Idealists and Guardians are both Complying with Norms. Wonder which “test” he took. Both KTS-II and MBTI are approximately 80% correct.
