Typically, those unfortunate individuals suffering from a fatal disease, once it has been deemed
incurable, reach a stage in which they are expected to die in a matter of weeks - or even days.
Medically speaking, it is then in such patients' best interests to be allowed to die (passive
euthanasia).
Often the dying patient's circumstances are such that it is more a question of whether or not to
treat a secondary infection - not simply maintaining the medical support being given for the
underlying illness. Many medical practitioners would agree with passive euthanasia whenever
one of their patient's illness becomes so acute that the patient is in constant pain. The moral
question of whether it is right or wrong could then be said to based upon the patient's quality of
life which is likely to remain very poor. Many law courts would also agree. Hence, most
countries allow competent adults to refuse to receive medical treatment. This is not the same as
active euthanasia; in which. Many British doctors have been convicted of attempted murder.
Certain people - such as practitioners of the Jehovah Witness faith - may well refuse serious
medical treatment, such as a blood transfer, on religious grounds. In legal terms any medical
treatment of a patient against their will is treated as a physical violation. In summary, a
competent person should be allowed to refuse to receive life-saving treatment.

Carl Jung's 1921 theory of psychological types describe the links between human
consciousness and human experience. He attempts firstly to define the psychic functions and
structures that everyone has in common with everyone else. Secondly, he describes how his
four psychic functions (sensing, thinking, feeling and intuition) came to be such a core part of
human personality in his book Psychological Types.
Jung considered that the human brain provides everyone with the same psychological
infrastructure. However, everyone has their own personal way of interpreting external events,
perceiving internal feelings/thoughts (and how best to respond). This is what is commonly
meant by the term psychological, or personality, type.
