edit: Changing his typing to LIE-Ni so/sp 7w8. All the we-us-our group-orientation pronouns in his speech turned out to be primary social instinct and not Fe.


After watching two of his interviews in Russian he sounds like Ni-EIE to me. What is interesting from those interviews is that he almost never refers to himself in 1st person but will consistently uses "we", "us" or "our" as in "our economy", "our society", "our plan", "we have decided that" etc. It is as if he feels himself to be perfectly integrated with whatever social networks that surround him. His descriptions of himself are rather dispassionate. During the interview he next to never corrects the interviewer on his line of reasoning but instead slides into descriptive mode to demonstrate his own point of view. On a few occasions he describes incorporating his own systems into practice. Often will describe how something works and delineate on-going processes. Sounds aristocratic, dynamic, extraverted, Fe+Ti, Ni-creative to me i.e. EIE.

I'm probably going to get accused of trolling or troublemaking for this post, but you have got to be kidding me. Are you seriously using his choice of pronouns as proof that this man is a certain type? Perhaps he just didn't want to be seen as a pretentious idiot when referring to the society and economy of his nation by making it belong to him. Which is what the use of "my" in this case would have denoted.

I'm leaning for ISTj now.

I want to hear your typing for him and your reasoning. Try it out.

In russian socionics forums he is most commonly typed as LIE. But also as LSE, SLE, ILI and IEI.

[The Ineffable]

yes, please

Sorry for not answering so far. I was intending to find some examples I met along the time to compare, one of them was a comedian who was posted here by someone but damn I can't remember his name. Because I don't currently have the time/inspiration to make a concise explanation that can be understood by others (widely known details and descriptions), I delayed this indefinitely. It would be useless to say that he is the identical of an ex LIE workmate of mine .

If I have to chose between these then definitely LIE
