Jen: I initially thought the same as you guys, keep it for actual
psych diagnosis, psychological theory, etc., but started wondering
if it would be too narrow. Like I read a post with a really good
analysis of Hermione, but no formal terminology, and debated where
to put it.
If no one objects, though, I'll go with Ginger/Potioncat and stick
the bulk of the posts in characterizaltion, leaving only the more
formalized posts for psych assessment.

Jen, doing it for a living and certain hers is on the edge.
