The Frieling test is a psycho-diagnostic test for personality research, developed in 1947 by a German psychoanalyst and artist, Ph.D. Heinrich Frieling (German: Dr. Heinrich Frieling). The test is an analysis of a person’s internal aspirations, boundaries and horizons of the unconscious and the specifics of perception of the world around him based on the “Color Mirror” technique.

History

edit

Heinrich Frieling is an artist and scientist from Bavaria who initially studied the influence of color on interior design and product packaging.[1] After the success of the Luscher test, he released his test, taking as a theoretical basis the ideas of Johann Goethe on the psychological meaning of color, as well as his model of the so-called color wheel or the “six-pointed Goethe star”. Frieling also applied the ideas of experimental psychology of Wilhelm Wundt about the typology of color incentives, the work of Vasily Kandinsky in the field of color semantics and in the context of the influence of color combinations on the human psyche. As for diagnostics, in his model, Frieling uses the Karl Jung typology, which caused some criticism because of the non-clinical basis - this is its main difference from the known typologies of that period.

Later, in 1949, Heinrich Frieling opened the Institute of Color Psychology in Marquartstein (Upper Bavaria, Germany).
