The driving needs are important in the APS, because as has been noted above, various behaviors in a particular temperament can be similar to one or more other temperaments, but they are actually undertaken for different reasons. This is key to understanding temperament. Simple emoticons of the five temperaments: Sanguine top right , Choleric bottom right , Melancholy bottom left , and Phlegmatic centre , with the new temperament top left and Phlegmatic blends inbetween.
The four-temperament model had 12 mixtures of the four temperaments, such as Mel-Chlor, San-Mel, etc. The order of temperaments in these pairs was based on which temperament was the " dominant " one. This new model has two types of "blends": across the three areas of inclusion, control and affection, and within each of those areas.
So a "San-Mel" in the older system would be someone dominantly Sanguine, but with some Melancholy traits. There are usually no specific criterion given, as to in what respect they are one temperament or the other; it just states that they have the traits of both.
The new system, however, handily tells us where the different temperamental traits lie: namely, the three "areas of need"! Or they could be any other combination of two to one. The new system does not use designations like "San-Mel"; but rather "Sanguine-Melancholy-Sanguine"; listing all three in the order of Inclusion, Control and Affection.
Within one of those areas however, there are only eight blends of the Phlegmatic temperament with the other four. These blends lie between adjacent temperaments, mid-range vertically or horizontally. The order of the temperaments in these pairs is not determined by "dominance" of one, but rather according to "expressed" and "wanted" behavior, respectively. A Phlegmatic Melancholy in Inclusion, for instance, expresses himself as a Phlegmatic but wants the same as a Melancholy.
This person is moderately more sociable than a pure Melancholy, but otherwise does not have much of a real need for interaction. A Melancholy Phlegmatic expresses himself as a Melancholy but wants the same as a Phlegmatic. This person has a moderate need for interaction, but is still not very expressive of it. These types of blends are different from the older system's "Phleg-Mel" and "Mel-Phleg", though those two blends may be a Phlegmatic blend in one or more of the three areas of the five-temperament theory.
These are the most driven forms of the temperaments. Since Phlegmatic is directly in the middle, it has no Compulsive variation, since it is by nature the opposite of Compulsive.
The presence of only two factors in the FIRO-B and Arno systems do not necessarily mean that they are missing elements of behavior picked up in analyses with more factors. Since the two factors of E and W are repeated in the three areas of Inclusion, Control and Affection which the others lack, this is technically a six factor model! The difference between all of these instruments is in the way the various elements of personality and behavior are broken down and measured.

These talented people have greatly benefited humanity and have made most of the world's major medical inventions and discoveries.
Despite their abilities, MelPhleg, like the rest of us, have weaknesses. Unless controlled by God, you are easily discouraged and develop a very negative thought pattern.
However, once you realize that it is a sin to develop a spirit of criticism and learn to rejoice, your whole outlook on life can be transformed. A calm person is generally capable of anger and hostility because of a vengeful tendency. MelPhlegs are especially vulnerable to fear, anxiety, and negative self-image.
Both are likely to be attentive to their children. Both are eager to help others. Their only difference is that the Phlegmatic tends to be more compassionate to the individuals, while the Melancholic concentrates on the idea of supporting the community as a whole. On the negative side, the emotionally contained Melancholic may feel uneasy about the intense passion of the emotional Phlegmatic. Once the Phlegmatic realizes that the Melancholic is not as romantic as they first may have hoped, they might get disappointed.
Another potential source of conflict is that Phlegmatic people, in general, do not respect the authority without questioning it first. In contrast, Melancholic people believe that they and others should always behave according to the proper conduct, preserving the customs and traditions of family and society.
