Do you believe your type changes during your life?

Any of your functions can grow stronger in nuance and sophistication. Your base and creative undergo a tremendous amount of development as you age and self-actualize. Your superid becomes less awkward and clunky. Even your superego can undergo transformation as you learn to follow a script of how and when to use it.


^ That's already built into the theory without needing to invoke type changes.

@xerx sure, but what influence does that have on intertypes? Do you think people can change quadra and change values? How would you classify disease processes like depression and schizophrenia, especially given that these things have remission states?

- no influence.
- quadra values aren't real.
- no relationship to socionics.
