Cognitive Type Theory

[Sandoval]

This forum needs a good uproar.

and I am "officially" welcoming you.

Well... ok! Here goes.



I'd like to introduce you to the new model on the block, it's called "Cognitive Type" and is a slowly budding one... with the hopes of entirely revamping the existing typology culture by addressing all the existing problems of repeatability and unfalsifiability. It also aims to be the first model to empirically verify the existence of types, and establish it as part of science.

The theory was officially published as a 350 page paperback/eBook a few months ago, but over half of the book has been made available online at: http://cognitivetype.com/

There's a walkthrough of the theory's basics at: cognitivetype.com/theory/

• Judgment & Perception (Theory)
• Abstract & Concrete Perception (Theory)
• Logical & Ethical Judgment (Theory)
• Proactivity & Reactivity (Theory)
• Proactive Perception (Pe) & Reactive Perception (Pi)
• The Ne/Si & Se/Ni Oscillations (Theory)
• The Fe/Ti & Te/Fi Oscillations (Theory)

And a full visual signals walkthrough can be found here:
