Types versions you've gotten by inuitive impressions should fit good to theory of types and intertype relations. If you typed many people and correleation with theory is generally bad (ethics are best in mathematics, most duals give you aversion, etc), then types are wrong and you need improve your abbilities. Basic theory of Socionics works not bad, so the problem is in wrong types mostly.
As types examples you may use lists in my signature.
But without clear knowing of your own type it's doubtful to type others by intuitive method good. To understand IR correctly is doubtfuly too. So it's harder for you to use this method, even having my examples. It's important for you to get clear version of your own type, preferably wich fits intertype theory with my examples of types and people in your life wich you typed yourself (give them tests, if you can).
