Functions

Top vs bottom

The functions have a special hierarchical order - top ↑ and bottom ↓.

The 1nd and 2nd functions are on the top, the 3rd and 4th are on the bottom.

The 3rd function is internally ambivalent, being both weak and strong at the same time, or weak with a strong unrealised potential inside.

result vs process

"And after that there is another important feature of it: the division of functions into Result-oriented and Process-oriented."

"Result-oriented" (1 & 4) are the functions for which in self-expression the result is more important than the process.
They are by the very principle of their action, are internally alone, not inclined to find a partner, and when expressing themselves, they gravitate towards a monologue.

“Process-oriented” (2 & 3) functions tend to be the opposite and value the process more than the result.
They are, on the contrary to Result-oriented ones, are disposed to dialogue, love partnership and the widest possible interaction.

“If, say, a person prefers to realize his logical function in the form of a result obtained in the course of solitary armchair reflections, then we can confidently say that his Logic is Result-oriented (Descartes). If a person finds true satisfaction only in the process of communicating with others, then his Logic is clearly Process-oriented (Socrates).”

abbreviated characteristics

I decided to make a more accurate and logically consistent translation, since Google sucks. Zoom in if you're on mobile.
Also, keep in mind that the Third function is "superprocess-oriented" rather than just "process". Read: Third function
