I understood Socionics like this:
I've heard about socionics a long time after i've noticed that there must be different functions in peoples heads appearing over and over again in often different, sometimes same mix.
They're like mathematic formulas, acting like a filter, or even a structure where you can press reality through and appending to the formular different versions of reality arrives. Reality is about informations what your sins are able to explore and whats in your mind already.
But its not like a door like the hypothalamus wich is filtering whats is necessary, it feel like it happens after that and the functions telling you how to handle its given information.
Its also the cause of why you like or dislike *elemtary* things (like going out).
If you think about why you think like youre thingking you'll end up at the essentials of socionics.
They're reality building functions and are expressed in peoples face, movement, thoughts and more. They're *forming* people.
Thats also why people of the same type look similar and the type would never change (type based the person itself could change often in life, like "going where").
Socionic is also able to explain relationships between different reality building functions.
Like if [X = a - b] would be a function of person X and [Y = - a + b] would be a function of person Y they will complement each other [a - b = - a + b] to 0 what can be interpreted as a relationship between them.
am i right?
