Do you prefer one over the other?
My sister and are both ethical subtypes (INFP/INFJ) and we prefer the sensory subtypes. We get along great with them, but the logical types bore us and make us feel uneasy.
I was looking over the subtype descriptions and the overall vibe of the sensory subtype goes better with the ethical subtype. They both even move fairly quickly unlike the logical/intuitive subtypes that have slower movements.
NiceOriginally Posted by Hugo
. So would that mean that Robin Williams would be the intuative subtype for ENTP and Curt Schilling would be the logical subtype?
I have my own theory on it all which i have posted elsewhere on this forum and which i believe smilingeyes quoted but didn't source(i haven't read about this idea elsewhere, although it seems obvious enought to be valid). It seems logical, so im sure others have thought this way as well. I'm no expert but it works for me and i think its just more concise than the above example.
In this world there are producers, and there are consumers. Analogy: the people that make the video games, and the people that play them.
Now a "producer" is going to be more developed in the area of their creative function, so a producing INTj will be more "out there" or perhaps even "mystical". where as a consuming INTj, although it may seemingly contradict my above analogy, is going to be more inclined to do studies, work in a lab, etc... (this is just a guess)
So, if you're spending more of the time and energy you occupy "producing" you will begin to manifest qualities which are related to your creative function. Like a creative ENTp, although extraverted, will be more inclined to have deep inner reflections. They will also probably take more time in ethical matters as well. So a creative sub-type implies more powerful creativity, an accepting, or "consuming" sub-type implies more applied practicality. This corresponds with distance aspects, so it is most definitely valid.
In intertype theory, as Hugo pretty much said, and I agree with, a creative subtype will more likely be better suited with a dual that has a creative subtype. The "life rhythms" are adapted better.
Yeah, the creative subtype sounds like me. I also have a friend who is a creative subtype ISFP. We get along well and these realtionships are VERY good to have.
Oops...that was a mistake. I was thinking of one particular case, but each situation is different...so I would have to agree that sensory goes with intuitive. And I know of several dual couples with this pairing.
Waddlesworth:
I think what you are saying was previously said (in a similar way) on Ganin's website at Socionics.com.
The following is taken from socionics.com:
Imagine you are a potter. You need to prepare some clay first and then you can start shaping it up. The dominant and the auxiliary functions work in similar way. The dominant function prepares the "clay" while the auxiliary function shapes it up. So the type of "clay" your dominant function processes, determines the type of your Information Metabolism (IM). ESTJ is the type of IM and it will always have dominant Te. An ESTP will always have dominant Se. The auxiliary function takes the "clay" from the dominant function and makes it into a form. ESTJ will shape Te into Si, ESTP will make Ti out of Se. You can prefer the preparation process, in this case you prefer your dominant function. You can prefer the forming process, in this case you prefer your auxiliary function. You can have no preference for any process, in this case you have the preparation and the forming balanced. So if some ESTJ prefers Sensing over Thinking, he or she prefers the auxiliary function, which is involved in the shaping process. In other words such ESTJ will be quite creative with his or her Si, but this will not change his or her type of IM, which will still be ESTJ. This may however make this ESTJ to adopt some of ISTP's style of behaviour.
I never saw that. That's actually an interesting way of seeing this.
Is it correct that you previously thought that you might be ISTp, not ESTp?
Could it be that you are an ISTp with a Logical subtype - in such a case the Logical subtype is extraverted since the second function of a ISTP is extraverted thinking. However in an ESTp the second function is introverted thinking, so an ESTp with logical subtype has an introrverted subtype.
An ISTp with extroverted subtype closely resembles an ESTj. An ESTp with introverted subtype closely resembles an ISTj.
Perhaps you are ISTp with sensory subtype.
Please tell me your thoughts.
Herzblut:
Which world do you like better: the physical world or the intellectual world?
Please tell me why you chose the logical subtype over the sensory subtype?
I know I'm an INTj, yet these two seem equally like me. Are there some simple questions you can ask to better get at my subtype?
Laura
INTj
Robesp'er (INTJ)
Analyst is initial (intuitive)
(planning - from the Eng. conceptor)
Analyst - good scientist -konqeptualist, primary attention gives to the global issues, the generator of ideas. For it are more important promising achievements than the result of the current moment. It is held it is softly, correctly, careful in the contacts. Outwardly frequently astenichen, more than attention gives to the exterior view, the health.
Analyst is terminal (logical)
(systematizing - from the Eng. systemizer)
Is concrete and regulated, organizer in the science, he does not entrust to the too removed ideas. Scholar, but only in its narrow region. In the behavior - it is dry, restrained, it can be authoritarian. It does not love discussions and frictions in the association, it is held on the distant psychological distance. Strict adherent of reasonable systems. It bears a strict clothing, it is attempted to be in grow prettier to physical form.
So basically there are 4 subtypes ... sensory, logical, intuitive, and ethical?
I need to understand this ... it is still a very new concept for me ...
The following is taken from socionics.com:
Imagine you are a potter. You need to prepare some clay first and then you can start shaping it up. The dominant and the auxiliary functions work in similar way. The dominant function prepares the "clay" while the auxiliary function shapes it up. So the type of "clay" your dominant function processes, determines the type of your Information Metabolism (IM). ESTJ is the type of IM and it will always have dominant Te. An ESTP will always have dominant Se. The auxiliary function takes the "clay" from the dominant function and makes it into a form. ESTJ will shape Te into Si, ESTP will make Ti out of Se. You can prefer the preparation process, in this case you prefer your dominant function. You can prefer the forming process, in this case you prefer your auxiliary function. You can have no preference for any process, in this case you have the preparation and the forming balanced. So if some ESTJ prefers Sensing over Thinking, he or she prefers the auxiliary function, which is involved in the shaping process. In other words such ESTJ will be quite creative with his or her Si, but this will not change his or her type of IM, which will still be ESTJ. This may however make this ESTJ to adopt some of ISTP's style of behaviour.
There are two subtypes for each type. It depends what your first two functions are.
So if you are ENTp you could be intuitive subtype (from extraverted intuition) or logical subtype (from introverted intuition). It is possible to be split between the two subtypes as well for any type.
For ISFp they could be ethical subtype or sensory subtype.
Also there is perfect duality and imperfect duality. Perfect duality is when the correct subtypes match with each other. So a rational subtype is matched well with a rational subtype and an irrational subtype is matched well with an irrational subtype.
