I doubt they have one for you.

I don't have a clue, hang on Google how many types of personalities are there? ...................................
Blimey there's some rubbish in those answers (But then what would I expect from Google) I'm going for this answer though as it looks the most likely going by the study.
Quote:
A B C D
A: Type A personalities are competitive, high achievers and have a high sense of time urgency. As a result of these combined traits Type A's are always found to be busy working on their own projects. Type A's felt insecure at one point of their lives and so they decided to fight the insecurity by changing their lives and making achievements as fast as they can.
B: Type B's are the opposite of type A's. They are relaxed, laid back and not easily stressed. While type B can be achievers too still they won't be as competitive as Type A's. Tybe b can delay work and do it in the last moment, some of them can turn into procrastinators which is something that a type A can never do.
C: Type C personalities love details and can spend a lot of time trying to find out how things work and this makes them very suitable for technical jobs. Type C are not assertive at all and they always suppress their own desires even if there is something that they dislike. The lack of assertiveness results in tremendous stress and sometimes in depression. Type Cs are very vulnerable to depression compared to type A and type B.
D: D stands for distressed, Type D's have a negative outlook towards life and are pessimistic. A small event that is not even noticed by type B can ruin type D's day. Type D might become socially withdrawn as a result of fear of rejection even if they like to be around people. Type D's are famous for suppressing their emotions and this makes them the most vulnerable type to depression.
