The following is a personality profile of Paul Krugman based on his work.
Paul Krugman is shrewd, inner-directed and can be perceived as indirect.
He is unconcerned with art, he is less concerned with artistic or creative activities than most people who participated in our surveys. He is intermittent as well: he has a hard time sticking with difficult tasks for a long period of time. But, Paul Krugman is also imaginative: he has a wild imagination.
More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for modernity.
He is relatively unconcerned with both tradition and taking pleasure in life. He cares more about making his own path than following what others have done. And he prefers activities with a purpose greater than just personal enjoyment.
