If you look into a textbook of psychology, then among other descriptions of the psychophysiological characteristics of a person, you can find such a thing as temperament. This feature depends on the type nervous system personality and is considered the basis of the character of each individual.
Currently, people use the terminology and classification once proposed by Hippocrates, which allows them to describe the species inherent in specific person. And along with other types, choleric is considered the most "bright". Let's figure out who a choleric is, what features make up the character of a choleric and what behaviors are typical for him.
Wondering what is the definition of the term " choleric temperament”(choleric temperament type), it is worth returning to the distant past. The fact is that Hippocrates (as mentioned earlier) became the founder of the theory of different types character, each of which includes a certain set of qualities.
The word "choleric" comes from the ancient Greek "chole" (χολή), which means "bile" or "yellow bile". Hippocrates associated this designation with the vital fluid that is present in the human body. In turn, the following relations are typical for other types:
- Phlegmatic - lymph (from the word "phlegm").
- Melancholic - black bile (from the words "melena" and "chole").
- - blood ("sangvi").
What qualities of a choleric person will help to recognize him in a crowd
Let's return to the basic terminology and classification in search of an answer to the question: "Who is a choleric?" In psychology, there are two different concepts proposed by K.G. Jung and allowing to divide all people according to personality types into two main groups: extrovert and. These are completely different and at the same time absolutely opposite psychotypes.
For example, an extrovert is a person whose behavior model is aimed at his environment and interaction with people in it. At the same time, an introvert is a person who acts by rushing inward. Based on this classification, we can say that choleric is a concept in psychology applicable to an extrovert, a person whose behavior patterns are oriented to the external environment.
But, given the type of nervous system of such a person, he can be called an extrovert with an unstable / unbalanced emotional background. However, this type is strong people that have an active life position and love to be the center of attention. Although, as practice shows, in some cases, choleric people act as introverts with experience in self-control.
The choleric, whose personality type description does not allow him to be considered a very cheerful person, has the following character traits:
- Decisiveness (determination).
- Courage.
- Perseverance.
- Purposefulness.
- Inconsistency.
- Willingness to take risks (even unjustified ones).
- Striving to be a leader in everything.
- Passion for controversy.
- Thirst for new knowledge, discoveries.
In addition to the qualities described above, choleric people stand out thanks to others. For example, such a person may experience frequent mood swings, which can be observed daily by people from the immediate environment. In addition to this, a choleric person is a restless and even hyperactive person, sociable, impulsive, unrestrained, passionate, violently reacting to different situations.
According to Hippocrates, the fact that “chole” (yellow bile) predominates in the body of such a person affects his behavior. This means that choleric people are often hysterical and aggressive, able to throw out all their negativity and discontent.
The development of temperament at different age stages
Since temperament is often an innate quality of each individual, trends in its development are noticeable from the very early age. So, a choleric child is usually subject to frequent mood swings, which are already observed in him “from the cradle”. Such children are characterized by intolerance to loneliness, which is manifested in the desire to constantly be in the arms of adults or to be in their society.
Choleric children do not sleep well at night. This can be explained by the predominance of excitatory processes over inhibition processes in the nervous system. In addition, such children are emotional and very vividly express desires to satisfy any of their needs. Such manifestations include such typical choleric features as crying, tantrums, screams, whims.
But, speaking of children who, by the type of their temperament, are choleric, one cannot fail to say that they are responsive to affection and are able to appreciate kindness, love, and care. They are very inquisitive and active, which sometimes bothers their parents. Other features of the choleric in childhood are sociability, the ability to easily and simply "get involved" in the game with adults, a stormy expression of joy, the ability to sincerely love.
Among their peers, matured choleric people stand out for their aspiration, propensity for leadership and craving for new knowledge. Parents of such a child, who from childhood is characterized by impulsiveness and increased emotionality, should use individual methods of education in order to instill in him from childhood the skill of self-regulation, self-control. Otherwise, the shortcomings of such a psychotype can gradually become a property of the individual. This, in turn, can be expressed in manifestations of aggression, inappropriate rudeness and inability to complete the work begun.
A matured choleric (characteristic of a man) is often a personality striving for dominance, which can become a despot in the family, because it will require unquestioning obedience and fulfillment of its requirements from all its members, this personality is inherent. At the same time, a choleric man is a person who can become a breadwinner and a stone wall for a woman, reliable support and support for parents, as well as a loving and caring father for his children.
In turn, a choleric woman is a strong, strong-willed personality, characterized by a penchant for leadership, a desire for independence and a willingness to take risks. For this woman, household chores are not a priority, because she is not interested in the monotony of gray everyday life. She strives to conquer new heights, to conquer the world.
What type of temperament is suitable for pairing with such a woman? In order for her to direct her energy in the right direction, next to her must be a phlegmatic man who can withstand the stormy and hyperactive rhythm of his chosen one's life.
Advantages and disadvantages of the psychotype
Like any other type of temperament, choleric has its pros and cons. Choleric can be characterized by only a few words that can only represent a general psychological picture.
In fact, the choleric has a lot of advantages. The energy bubbling in him will allow him to give all the best on the way to his goal, and the ability to plunge headlong into favorite hobby help you choose the right one life path. Other advantages of the choleric type of temperament include:
- Innate sense of leadership.
- High stress tolerance.
- The ability to capture the attention of the public, to convince and lead people.

At the same time, choleric people have several disadvantages. The disadvantages of this temperament include:
- Excessive aggressiveness, which, in the absence of self-control skills, can turn into a force that destroys a person’s life.
- Short temper.
- Ambition.
- Stubbornness.
- A little patience.
- Irritability, which makes communication and friendship with such people very burdensome.
If there is a choleric person in your environment (and this will not be difficult to notice, knowing the description of the main features of his character), try to show more tolerance towards him. Such people, although prone to mood swings and irritability, know how to be responsive, grateful, attentive, caring and loving. Author: Elena Suvorova
This is the brightest of temperaments - choleric people never remain in the shadows, they are very active. life force splashes over the edge, they violently experience any emotions - anger, joy, unhappiness, delight. A lot of action and little thought, but full dedication and dedication.
Main feature choleric - energy. If a person of this temperament has a goal, he immediately proceeds to achieve it, and it is almost impossible to stop him. While the melancholic thinks about a plan of action, and tells what he will do, the choleric manages to achieve what was planned and looks out for new tasks.
Choleric child
The first "victim" of the imperious choleric becomes his mother, whom the baby completely subjugates. The peanut can cry for hours, be naughty and angry until he gets what he wants. Cholerics have an innate need for a dominant position, sooner or later they, as a rule, manage to take command positions, in “particularly successful” cases they become domestic dictators and tyrants. The child refuses to obey his parents and forces him to play on his terms. But at the same time, a little choleric is joyful and agile, accepting gifts with delight, loving with all his heart, with infectious laughter and sparkling eyes. The attention of the whole family is focused on him, firstly, because the fidget cannot be left unattended, and secondly, he radiates energy and joy, which is very attractive.
Choleric at work
People of this warehouse have innate leadership qualities. They clearly see the goal, captivate everyone with their idea, and strive for dominance in all situations. This set of qualities allows choleric people to become good leaders. Explicit leadership qualities inherent in almost all choleric people:
- A clear vision of the goal and the ability to clearly state the tasks.
- Sincere and emotional manner of communication.
- The ability to quickly navigate the situation.
- Ability to motivate subordinates, control their actions.
- Tendency to manipulate people.
Many world politicians belong to this psychotype, but in order to achieve such heights, a choleric person needs to learn how to control bursts of energy. With excellent strategic abilities, choleric people often lack a sense of tact.
IN critical situations people of this temperament take responsibility without hesitation, and people usually follow them, even if they understand that the path ahead is not easy. Cholerics are not familiar with compromises and doubts, considering them the lot of weak and insecure people. Qualities that often turn away from a choleric leader:
- Overconfidence.
- Heightened self-esteem.
- Rejection of other people's opinions.
- Unreasonable demands.
Over time and with experience, the choleric learns to curb his indefatigable temper and becomes a charismatic and authoritative leader.
The nature of the choleric
It is impossible to imagine a moping or indifferent choleric person. He always knows what he is striving for and tirelessly moves towards the goal. If you see that a customer in a store begins to straighten a crookedly hanging mirror or a restaurant visitor rubs cutlery to a shine while waiting for an order, you should know that this is a choleric person. These people do not know peace.
Cholerics sharply do not accept manifestations of injustice, so they actively participate in charity events, rescue operations, protect animals and birds, speak at rallies and picket government agencies. Any battlefield is the best habitat for a choleric, here he feels at home and can throw out an inexhaustible charge of energy.
The speed of choleric reactions is the highest, so they do not understand how others can not understand the essence of the problem for so long and not take action. He himself without hesitation gets down to business, often brushing aside conventions and losing like-minded people. The choleric person often comes to the top alone, because those who started the ascent with him could not stand the tension and pace. The choleric is absolutely sure that he can act as efficiently as possible if no one interferes with him. But for advancement, it is not enough just to see the goal and not see the obstacles, you also need to organize coordinated actions of the whole team. If a person of this type understands in time that it is necessary to take into account not only his desires and possibilities, loneliness will not threaten him.
Working with people, the choleric leader distributes responsibilities quite accurately, but none of the team has a single chance to be on the highest foot - he will take on the most important part of the work and receive all the laurels. Obstacles do not stop the choleric, but incite him and make him obsessed with achieving the goal. Representatives of other types of temperament behave under such conditions in a completely different way: balanced sanguine people leave an impossible task, do not take on its solution, but are looking for an opportunity to bypass difficult moments.
Sanguine and melancholy people usually have friends. The first needs an audience, and the second needs support. Choleric, on the other hand, does not need anyone - he is busy looking for a goal and achieving it. He is completely independent of other people's opinions and does not need understanding and support. He agrees to work in a team only if he can be the first.
How to coexist with a choleric person?
To withstand close contact with an explosive and despotic choleric is not for everyone. But, knowing the features of his difficult disposition, you can adapt to him and recharge with his energy.
- Cholerics are highly active - they quickly get to work. At the same time, they are direct and persistent.

Sensitively reacting to changes in the surrounding situation, it has an internal locator tuned to the target. Such a person will most often express his opinion if he is sure that he is right. This is a very useful quality. Others may speak out against him. They are outraged by the peremptory tone and harsh manners of the choleric. But having humbled their own, they will appreciate this gift of the choleric - to feel where the dog is buried. This is a very valuable feature.

The melody of his life rings free as he sees purpose and perspective as a thirty-piece Scottish brass band plays for him.
