Is there a correlation between the Big Five and Socionic type?

It corresponds. If you go to MBTI forums and chat with people who score as as you'll find they have static logic (this is already taking into account that roughly 20-25% of them are mis-typed, just like on this board).

The theories don't correspond. They have nothing to do with each other. Introvert Rationals typing PiJe and Introvert Irrationals typing JiPe means jack squat because MBTI does not recognize the Static/Dynamic dichotomy.

MBTT does not consider functions as static/dynamic, there is a whole different window typology and types are being viewed from than in Socionics.


To paint a picture:
There is a soda machine in the U.S. that takes U.S. dollars. A guy has paper money from another country that can fit in the US dollar slot. The guy slides it in and it's half-received by the machine, but then gets rejected because his paper money and the US Dollar are made of different substances even though they seem the same on the surface.

The U.S. Dollar is Static/Dynamic, the foreign paper money is P(e)/J(e).


It doesn't matter what types people get typed as. A person is always what they are. The fact that Socionics calls that person Static, or MBTI calls them JePi is irrelevant. If you know the structure of MBTI you would see that it cannot logically coexist with Socionics, especially in where Rationality/Irrationality is concerned. Either one of them is wrong & one is right, or they are both wrong.

Either one of them is wrong & one is right, or they are both wrong.

Specifically, right and wrong depends on the requirements/expectations of its use...which varies between individuals. Maybe it would help if you both first made that clear, instead of flexing your egos to what you prescribe to be right or wrong.
