Socionics is a theory of information processing and personality type, distinguished by its information model of the psyche, called Model A, and a model of interpersonal relations. It incorporates Carl Jung's work on Psychological Types with Antoni Kępiński's theory of information metabolism. Socionics is a modification of Jung's personality type theory that uses eight psychic functions. These functions process information at varying levels of competency and interact with the corresponding function in other individuals, giving rise to predictable reactions and impressions—a theory of intertype relations.
Socionics was developed in the 1970s and '80s, primarily by the Lithuanian researcher Aušra Augustinavičiūtė, an economist, sociologist, and dean of the Vilnius Pedagogical University's department of family science. A. Augustinavičiūtė has later shortened her last name from "Augustinavichiute" to "Augusta" to make it easier to spell for foreigners. The name "socionics" is derived from the word "society", because A. Augusta believed that each personality type has a distinct purpose in society, which can be described and explained by socionics. Augusta created symbols to represent the functions described by Carl Jung and — together with a circle of fellow researchers/hobbyists — eventually created what is known as the "socionic model of the psyche" — a description of the psyche where each of the 8 information elements has its place in each person's psyche.
The central idea of socionics is that information is intuitively divisible into eight categories, called information aspects or information elements, which a person's psyche processes using eight psychological functions. Each sociotype has a different correspondence between functions and information elements, which results in different ways of perceiving, processing, and producing information. This in turn results in distinct thinking patterns, values, and responses to arguments, all of which are encompassed within socionic type. Socionics' theory of intertype relations is based on the interaction of these functions between types.
This is an old topic, I know. But I noticed the same with friends and myself. Exemple EIEs behaving like LSIs, which is mostly common in Males imo.
Mairon Today, 05:38 PMDr.G is a very respectable man and has greatly contributed to socionics almost since its very inception.
SHS is just different than Model
Jung has plenty of negative stuff in his type descriptions. For example: In his Ni description he said that this type mistakes his intuitions for reality,
Tallmo Today, 05:23 PMThis is basically enneagram, lol. Enneagram is all unhealthiness, yet people still manage to misidentify their types... I think it's mainly an ego problem

Negative Descriptions
The kind of descriptions people want are not really TIMs/sociotypes descriptions which can be very short and that would be okay. No, what people want
