Subtypes

Dominant subtype (D) - Contacting, Terminating, Connecting. This subtype tends to be linear in its energy output. Dominating in the sphere of primary needs generates a group role of the motivator. General characteristic of dominance: pronounced goal-directedness with predominance of terminal action over reflection.

Creative subtype (C) - Contacting, Initiating, Ignoring. The behavior of creatives is directed toward finding new ideas, opportunities, and abilities, active response, contact with the irritant. Counterattack. They are maneuvering and dragging out the game with the opponent. The main characteristic of a creative person is paradoxical thinking and unconventional behavior, which allow to solve problems of special complexity, not subject to the usual, previously working methods.

Normalizing subtype (N) - Distancing, Terminating, Ignoring. Representatives are drawn to systematization and structuring of information, and strengthening of Fi makes them follow norms and rules, certain established ethics. They perceive very painfully when these rules and norms are violated. Passive reaction, avoiding the stimulus. Retreat. A person who fulfills the role of a norming participant in a group. A normalizing person brings stability with them.

Harmonizing subtype (H) - Distancing, Initiating, Connecting. This subtype differs from the norming subtype in that it easily reacts to interference in its world. His task is to eliminate conflicts and harmonize relations with others. Start tasks easily but quickly lose interest and often switch tasks. They frequently don't complete tasks. The harmonizer is designed to provide feedback in a communicative system.

Accepting subtype corresponds to accentuation of “accepting” functions 1, 3, 5, 7;

Producing subtype corresponds to accentuation of “producing” functions 2, 4, 6, 8;

Contact subtype corresponds to strengthening of contact functions 2, 3, 5, 8.

Inert subtype corresponds to strengthening of inert functions 1, 4, 6, 7.

Terminating (or terminal) subtype refers to streightening of the first, “program” function.

Initiating (or initial) subtype refers to strengthening of the second, “creative” function.

Strengthening of function

Strengthening of function E (Emotions) forms demonstrative-artistic behavior. Corresponds to primary dominance - through emotional pressure, ability to inspire or frighten. Primary dominance in animals is associated with bright coloration, screams, expressive facial expressions and gestures.

Strengthening of the P (Practice) function forms a stuck behavior. This mode of dominance is secondary. These are business leaders who are persistent and persistent in getting their way.

Strengthening of the F (Force) function forms excitable behavior. This is interpreted as primary, instinctive creativity. It gives a non-standard quick solution in an extreme, critical for survival situation.

Strengthening of function I (Innovations) forms affective-labile behavior. This is a secondary creativity associated with intellectual fantasy, non-standard ideas aimed not at getting out of a deadlocked situation, but at solving problems of the future.

Strengtheningof the R (Relationships) function yields anxious behavior. This is primary norming, not requiring formal fixation of rules, based on tradition.

Strengthening of function L (Logic) leads to the formation of formal-pedantic behavior. It is secondary by the nature of satisfaction of general group needs. It is based on regulations, instructions, official laws.

Strengthening of the S (Sense) function leads to the formation of astheno-neurotic behavior. This is a primary, vital harmonization associated with the value of bodily comfort.

Strengthening of the T (Time) function leads to the formation of detached and self-immersed behavior, up to autism. This is harmonization of the secondary, spiritual and mental plan.

Subtype Notation

One's subtype is generally added following the person's type; e.g., ESE-Fe. Although the "Fe" notation does not, by itself, state whether the person has a base or creative subtype, this can be deduced by referencing the type's Model A, e.g., in the ESE-Fe example, because ESEs have Fe in their base function, an ESE-Fe denotes a base subtype (and "ESE-Si" would denote a creative subtype). Numerical notation denotes the strength of the subtype, e.g., ESE-2Fe. The range is set between 0 and 3:

0: no discernible subtype

1: weak subtype

2: moderate subtype

3: strong subtype

Romance Styles

Aggressor - the aggressor needs a zone of influence, striving for domineering. Aggressor inclinate to take the initiative in approaching the object of his interest and being “relentless”. The aggressor is an active selfish role. It includes the desire for control and dominance. Such people actively protect their interests, behave assertively and expansively, strive to control the situation. At the same time, they are afraid to show weakness, perceiving it as their vulnerability. Aggressor is an “expansive” role: seeks to conquer the other person, defends against encroachment. Aggressor behaves actively in communication, makes the first step, voices clear proposals. He likes to feel control over the process of rapprochement. (LSI SLE ESI SEE)

Victim - tend to adjust to their partner, expecting them to give instructions, admonishments, rebukes. They play the victim, which then demonstrates subordination, and then tries to escape from control. They are innate provocateurs. Victims tend to provoke people: they want only strong people around them. Victim is a passive altruistic role. It is characterized by expectation and the desire to be won over. People in this role may express their feelings and needs, but they do so in a passive manner, not demanding active action from their partner. They expect that he himself will make a step towards, take the initiative and thereby win the disposition and trust. This person wants to feel “their” or “yours”, to feel that someone will stand up for them, that someone is behind them.Victim gets close rather passively, waiting for and responding to initiative from the other person. (EIE IEI LIE ILI)

Caring - soft, inclined to patronize, protect, support a partner. Strives to be more experienced in everyday affairs, but does not aspire to power. Prone to assume that partner needs their support and help in everyday daily matters, Interest is kept up if their partner is welcoming of their care and attention. Caring - an active altruistic role.

The caring one takes a lively part in the partner's life, gets involved in meeting other people's needs while hiding his or her own. Caring is demonstratively caring for the needs of others (giving treats, clothing, etc.) (SEI ESE SLI LSE)

Childlike - people who have childhood in their hearts, display childlike qualities - spontaneity, curiosity, fantasizing. Often choose the role of an inexperienced partner. Try attracting partner’s interest with fun and interesting conversation and discussion, proposals, humor, ethical and mental exploration, and quirky statements. Appreciate partners who are attentive to their needs. Childlike - passive egoistic role. It is characterized by a focus on their own needs and desire to receive attention from a partner. People in this role are able to attract care and interest, but have difficulty understanding and satisfying other people's needs. This person craves attention and participation, likes to demonstrate their interests and hobbies, expects approval and praise, and also sincere interest in their development. He/she wants to “demonstrate himself/herself”, show his/her essence, attract attention with something interesting, may brag or complain about his/her problems. (ILE LII IEE EII)

Fears of psychosexual types

Active types fear the feeling of powerlessness, dependence, when they cannot influence the situation. Thus, Agr.-Car. fears the uncontrollability of the world around him, when he cannot influence what is happening, while Car.-Agr. fears that he will owe someone and that he himself will be forced to some actions.

Passive types are afraid of excessive responsibility, that they will not be helped in a difficult situation, that there will be no one to rely on. Thus, for Ch.-Vic. it is scary to be responsible for others, to have excessive authority, whereas for Vic.-Ch. - that no one will take responsibility for him in case of anything, that there will be no indifferent person around.

The greatest fear of altruistic types is not to be good enough for others, to be alone because of this. Thus, Vik.-Car. fears not to fulfill his duty or obligations, to be an unworthy person, while Car.-Vik. fears to be capricious, clingy and demanding, fears that others will reject him because of this.

And lastly egoistic types fear suppression of desires, impossibility to realize them. Thus, an Agr.-Ch. fears that other people will not give him what he wants (attention, resources, etc.), while an Ch.-Agr. fears that others will prevent him from expressing his individuality and will hinder him in his affairs.

Forms of thinking

Holographic (Result-static-negativity) - LIE SLE ESI IEE

Left progression (main conclusion first, then details), negativism (tendency to reach several conclusions rather than one), statism (fragmentation of thoughts independent of time). How static holographists achieve good clarity of thought, how negativists periodically turn the object of thought the opposite way, and how involutionists leapfrog a change of perspective - an angle of consideration or criterion of judgment. By mentally superimposing several projections of the same object, holographers achieve a volumetric effect. Holographic thinking has a characteristic skeleton-snatching, “X-ray” character. It cuts off details and nuances without regret. It gives a general, very curtailed idea of the subject.

Analytical (Process-statics-positivism) - ILE LSI SEE EII

As statists they are steady and clear in their thinking, as evolutionists they think processually, without skipping details and intermediate links, and as positivists they strictly go to one, the only true solution. The cause-effect intelligence is known by the synonymous names formal-logical, or deterministic thinking. A natural model of cause-and-effect thinking is a representation of information in the form of a blueprint or realistic drawing.

Vortex (Result-dynamics-positivism) - ESE IEI LIE SLI

As the synergetic speakers think fluidly, with overflows of one thought into another, as the positivists go to one point of attraction, as the involutionists often turn back, jump to the previous level, which curtails the flow of their thoughts like a vortex or a cloud changing its shape. The characteristic “whirlwind” means self-organizing, moving like a whirlwind. In fact, it proceeds as a rapid selection of options, their testing and subsequent elimination of those that do not yield results. It is based on trial and error - progress towards the goal through trial and error.

Dialectical (Process-dynamics-negativism) - SEI EIE ILI LSE

Algorithmic style of thought - negativism (thinking in the category of difference), dynamism (constant movement of the subject of thought over time), right progression (details first, then main conclusion). As dynamics these types are good at synthesizing holistic images, as deductive thinkers they increasingly complicate them, and as negativists they work well with contradictions and paradoxes. It is the most flexible and sophisticated thinking. It can easily switch to the opposite direction and is prognosticative.
