Where do personality types come from for the DiSC profile?
The DiSC instrument from Wiley Publishing is based on the work of William Marston first described in 1928 in his book Emotions of Normal People. Marston believed that by understanding how our "normal" emotional responses adapt to the demands of of people, situations, and societal expectation, we could evolve into better- integrated people who were more independent and able to realize true happiness in our work lives and personal lives. What Marston characterized as emotional responses or "primary emotions" are known today as Dominance (D), Influence (i), Steadiness (S) and Conscientiousness (C).
