Definitions of the Cognitive Functions or Elements
I took it upon myself to separate the cognitive functions into sets of characteristics for analysis.
This is entirely from my perspective. I might be doing it wrong, so feel free to tell me.
Se includes perception of a hierarchy and status, physical ability, motivation/drive, acquisition of practical data, good reflexes,
Ni includes deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning, predicting things based upon previous knowledge, analysis by gut, deep thought, having an epiphany, doubting ideas,
Si includes memory, following traditional values, detection of internal wellness, attention to one's internal wellness, sticking to norms,
Fi includes internal feelings, analysis by vibe, valuing interconnectiveness, intense emotions, feeling good or bad about something, liking disliking an object, following ethical standards,
Fe includes the ability to change or diffuse the emotional situation, having more malleable emotions, valuing shared emotional states, influencing someone else's emotions,
Te includes valuing efficiency, giving detailed lists of orders, acquisition of factual data to be prepared, dealing with the steps,
Ti includes valuing correctness, seeing logical connection, questioning things, self reliance, creating logical constructs, defiance of order, understanding logical constructs, following logical standards,
Ne includes idea generation, spacing out, recognize patterns, come to new beginnings, focusing on the end, sticking with ideas, reconciling competing ideas, connecting previously unrelated ideas,
Stuff that is not an element or function includes physical features, memory, topics of interest (hobbies),
I am willing to edit and add to or take out of the list any suggestions. Generally, the rule is if it is the same as something else, it should not be added, and if it is already added, it should be taken out. I am also willing to split these characteristics into two different characteristics, but I'll defer that to the forums.
