What do these signs mean—, , etc.? Why cannot socionists use symbols Ne, Ni etc. as in MBTI? Just because they have somewhat different meaning. Socionics and MBTI, each in its own way, have slightly modified the original Jung's description of his 8 psychological types. For this reason, (Ne) is not exactly the same as Ne in MBTI.
Just one example: in MBTI, Se (extraverted sensing) is associated with life pleasures, excitement etc. By contrast, the socionic function (extraverted sensing) is first and foremost associated with control and expansion of personal space (which sometimes can manifest in excessive aagression, but often also manifests in a capability of managing lots of people and things).
For this reason, we consider comparison between MBTI types and socionic types by functions to be rather useless than useful.

They've always correlated this to MBTI, as well as Big 5, they're pretty much the same thing, I have yet to see them able to correlate this to Socionics.

Yeah, well R/S is pretty good for I/E. The other correlations are too weak imo. I would list what I think they are, in terms of Socionics, but there's not really a point.

Here's the Big 5 --> Socionics/MBTI correlation.
Extroversion = Extroversion
Openness = Intuitive
Agreeableness = Feeling
Conscientiousness = Judging
Neuroticism = Unhealthy (on the type-independent healthy/unhealthy spectrum)
Someone who scores high on Extroversion Openness Agreeableness Conscientiousness and Neuroticism is therefore tested as an unhealthy ENFj.
When I find how the SLOAN type works I'll list that too.
EDIT:
SLOAN - Big 5 - MBTI/Socionics
Social - Extroversion - Extroversion
Limbic - Neuroticism - Unhealthy
Orderliness - Conscientiousness - Judging
Accommodating - Agreeableness - Feeling
Non-curious - Un-Openness - Sensing
Someone who scores SLOAN on the SLOAN is therefore tested as an unhealthy ESFj.
SLOAN - Big 5 - MBTI/Socionics
Reserved - Introversion - Introversion
Calm - Un-Neuroticism - Healthy
Unstructured - Un-Conscientiousness - Perceiving
Egocentric - Un-Agreeableness - Thinking

Someone who scores RCUEI on the SLOAN is therefore tested as a healthy INTp.

I disagree about crispy's assertion. F definitely correlates to agreeableness when compared to T.
Not 100% of course, but it's there. Even for beta NFs, but probably to a lesser degree. IME, all beta NFs have been quite agreeable. I think it might be all those self-absorbed e3 EIEs and e4w3 IEIs who are messing things up.

Let's compare how you interpret dichotomies to how I do:
Your interpretation of Agreeable/Unagreeable
Agreeable:ESFp ISFj ENFp INFj ESTj ISTp ESFj ISFp
Results: All of delta, and all SF's
Unagreeable: INTp ENTj ENTp INTj ENFj ESTp ISTj ENFj
Results: All of beta, and all NT's
My interpretation of Agreeable/Unagreeable
Agreeable: ESFj ISFp ENFj INFp ESFp ISFj ENFp INFj
Results: All F types
Unagreeable: ENTp INTj ESTp ISTj ENTj INTp ESTj ISTp
Results: All T types
Now that they are back to back; what makes more sense?
Is there a reason for you senselessly complicating what should be simple definitions of dichotomies?
If you want to be characterized as Unagreeable, you are NOT a feeling type. Learn the theory please.

I agree with Crispy's correlations.
I'm RCOAI.

The j comes from Organized > Unstructured.

Ya I'm near the border between the two as well. J/P is the most common inaccuracy on tests.
ILI (FINAL ANSWER)
Pondering whether you might be Unagreeable would not dictate it so. But if you know exactly what they mean by Agreeableness and confidently choose to be known as Unagreeable, it reveals much about which side of the spectrum you're on.
It doesn't apply to those new to big 5, but Aleksei has been studying this for a long time (or so he says). He should know what the dichotomies mean by now.

That correlation is as I've said. The greater truth is that the phenomenon(s) that the Big 5 describes are the same as the ones discovered for socionics (the four main dichotomies). They didn't give enough credit to their findings when the attached the word "medium" to the correlation. I assure you they were wrong. You will discover this too only after much study.
Since the Big 5 is (if only somewhat) accepted in the scientific community, it is the closest bridge socionics can cross into the scientific realm.
ILI (FINAL ANSWER)
No, I believe you scored ENTp on a big 5 test. If after extensive study of both socionics and big 5 you believe you still must be SXUEI without relying on a test, then it is most likely you are indeed either ENTp or severely misled.

If there is no correlation, please explain to me what is NOT LII about that paragraph.
ILI (FINAL ANSWER)
Also, your correlations break down, since Neuroticism and Extraversion are not fully orthogonal: there's a tendency towards low N in high E, and vice-versa. And saying that Openness is N is saying all Sensors are closed-minded, and also by implication are dimwits, since there is, again, a correlation between intelligence and Openness. [EDIT: nvm, have read up on Openness, but it does raise a different problem. Read below.]
Also, I would like to know where you got your definitions of the dichotomies from. My understanding, as per Rick's site, is that the dichotomies are where you focus your attention (with the exception of J/P), not "are you more X than the rest of the populace with opposing trait Y".
EDIT
The problem is this: "Each factor consists of a cluster of more specific traits that correlate together." When mapping one system to another, those clusters of traits never line up perfectly. In fact, just looking at Openness alone, the trait of "narrow range of interests" sounds like Socionics Introversion, meaning your one Big Five factor, that is (supposedly) orthogonal to the other five factors does not map to a single dichotomy in Socionics. That is a problem.
This is the reason why correlations are always going to be loose, and why I am highly skeptical of your correlations, considering how "neat" they are. (And a funny bit of trivia for your consideration... in geography, when someone draws a straight line on a map, it's called messy geography.)
Anyway, I have a headache, so I'm not really going to bother with a complete critique of your Established Truth there, but as I said, I am extremely skeptical; perhaps by virtue of very much breaking your theory there myself.

It all ties back to what brought all these personality theories around in the first place. None of these were invented; they are a collection of observed phenomenon, originally described in detail by Jung and expanded, for better or for worse, by everyone else. I can tie it all together so easily because they all have the same reference point. You can be skeptical. It took me about a year of reading to get to this point, and I won't be surprised if it takes others similar amounts of time to understand why. I still struggle to see why so many people want things to be complicated and enigmatic. The simple answers are in plain sight, taunting you.
EDIT: If any of you haven't tried yet, read the SLOAN type description that would match your current socionics self-type according to my previous lists (reading both the healthy and unhealthy ones helps), and see if it doesn't describe you better than whatever SLOAN type you tested as before. The most common mistake is tests and bad test questions, and that is most likely the case here. Notice how almost all the misses were only off by one letter.
EDIT2:
You are describing the trend of unhealthy introverts in an extroverted world.
Also this isn't geography; it's mathematics.

Fair enough. xc|u|an and xc|u|ai both describe me equally well.
Extroversion results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity.
Orderliness results were low which suggests you are overly flexible, random, scattered, and fun seeking at the expense too often of structure, reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment.
Emotional Stability results were moderately high which suggests you are relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic.
Accommodation results were medium which suggests you are moderately kind natured, trusting, and helpful while still maintaining your own interests.
Inquisitiveness results were moderately high which suggests you are intellectual, curious, imaginative but possibly not very practical.
Your Global5/SLOAN type is SCUAI
IEE-Ne
So Gilly's not a Feeling type then?
Don't be silly. You appear to believe that people are exact type templates, which even a cursory evaluation of human personality proves false, especially considering type theory has no basis in neurology to begin with -- it's all rooted on bullshit mysticism. Human beings are far more complex than this.
Incidentally, I'm actually almost borderline on Agreeable/Egocentric (my proper SLOAN+ score is sLue|I|). Most Beta NFs I've found are more egocentric than myself.
