🎓About the methodology
Hogwarts house sorting has become a cultural phenomenon far beyond the books and films. Psychologists note that the four houses correspond remarkably well to fundamental temperaments and personality types. Gryffindor values courage and determination, Ravenclaw prizes intellect and creativity, Hufflepuff cherishes fairness and loyalty, and Slytherin rewards resourcefulness and ambition. This typology has been reflected in real research: Caron Beaver's work at the University of Exeter demonstrated correlations between house preference and Big Five personality traits.
