Paradox Theory is an application to psychology of Yin-Yang Theory, which Carl Jung extensively studied when developing his own theories. The ancient Chinese body of knowledge known as Yin-Yang Theory was one of the first systems to provide a framework of conceptual opposites. The Harrison Paradox Theory extends that principle to include complementary and paradoxical forces and applies it to specific traits. Harrison Paradox Theory includes a series of principles that can be applied to the individual psyche as well as to organizational dynamics.

The term paradox is used because complementary traits often appear to be contradictory but, in fact, they are not. An example of a paradox used in the Harrison Assessment system is diplomacy and frankness. While these traits may initially appear to be in opposition to each other, they are both favorable (and arguably necessary) traits for success.
