Question

With reference to "Hippocrates" type Theory of Personality, mention any one kind of humour?

One Line Answer

Solution

Melancholic humor

Explanation:

Hippocrates' theory of personality defines four sorts of humour, each correlating to a different temperament. Melancholic humor is a type of humour that involves introspection, sensitivity, and a predisposition towards sorrow or depression. Melancholic persons are analytical, detail-oriented, and creative, yet may experience mood swings and pessimism. This form of humour is connected with excessive black bile.
