    My guess: self preservational 6 (phobic) / IEE – SEI area (leaning more towards SEI) Edit: sp/so

    I watched and read some interviews. It was a close call, but I decided for sp 6 and against 1 as a core type. Emma Watson has a very warm and bubbly quality. I personally don‘t find her high charged or stiff. I looked through
    her pictures and if you concentrate on her eyes, you see, that they have a very warm quality, she is very ... bambi like - puppy dog eyes.

    To contrast a LSE 1 and a SEI 6, some clips from the show Gilmore Girls. Paris Gellar is a LSE 1 so/sp. Rory is a SEI 6 sp/so. Other- oriented LSE 1s can be hardcore competency testers. E.g.
    this scene. Some of them also talk like a freight train, talking you down, spewing whatever they have prepared to say out in staccato tone. Like in this scene. There is a more verbal abusive tone with them, when they get into this mode. It doesn’t have to be all the time, but they can whip it out effortlessly. I don’t sense this quality in Emma at all. Like that she could be that hardcore tester, bordering on verbal abusive.

    Rory on the other hand is the perfectionistic phobic 6. ‚teachers pet‘ not acting against authority. She has the bambi quality. Paris even makes remarks in the show about Rory's puppy dog eyes. She has this non threatening aura, and people don’t turn against her. Complete opposite of Paris. It’s an inherent quality in Rory. That’s why she can even get along with Paris. She just has a non threatening, warm aura. Emma is the same for me. She is just not channeling a lot of the energy, that I connect with 1s. Look at these pictures of
    Emmas graduation from Brown and of Rory Gilmore. For me they both channel the same energy (note: using the photos, because I think Alexis Bledel, the actress, who plays Rory, is also an sp 6).

    Now to make clear what I see as 1 Energy. 1 have an anger block and by extension an emotion block. Because the energy of the anger is not flowing out, it builds up and accumulates inside. That gives them a more high charged quality. 1s are often called as 'the perfectionist' in profiles. In
    this article they propose 3 types of perfectionists. Self oriented, self prescribed and other – oriented.

    Self-oriented perfectionists set exceedingly high standards for themselves and strive to meet them. By contrast, socially prescribed perfectionists feel the high standards they wish to meet have been set by others; this type of perfectionist believes acceptance by others is conditional upon meeting such standards. [...] Yet, one final style of perfectionism also exists: those who are other-oriented, as the name indicates, expect others to be perfect and they become critical when others fail to meet such expectations.
    Now I tried to match up these with the some examples and instincts.**

    I type Nina Sayers (Black Swan) and Andrew Nyman (Whiplash) as self
    – preservation/sexual 1s for example. Self preservational instincts makes them more self oriented, directing most of the high charged energy onto themselves. Both films show how self - preservational 1s can act out, when they are stuck in a really unhealthy mindset. 1 are ideal oriented types. But people are not perfect. Both characters start to take their perceived failure out on themselves. Giving them a self destructive and reactive streak (1s connection to 4). They slip into an extremely unhealthy 4 state. Re. Reactivity – deep down 1 can resent the authority figure deeply, when they feel they get pushed too much, they can start to lash out. [x] (last 30 sec). They can also become indulgent (drinking, food) or indulge in escapism (drugs, partying) – connection to 7. So unhealthy 1 can start to live out unhealthy states of 4 and 7.

    [1] end scenes of both films.
    [x] (esp. last 5 min), [x]. Look at their faces. absolutely tense, the high charged energy (amplified because of the blocking and controlling beforehand) is really palpable now, they start to let loose, sublimate the energy into action, it‘s building, building, accumulating and then BAM, they reach the peak, their moment, the short glimpse of their perfection – and then they get absolute relaxed. You see how they took it out on themselves, in order to reach whatever they deem as perfect.

    Example of an machiavellian and other oriented perfectionist is Amy (Gone Girl). I typed her as a sexual
    1. They bleed this high charged energy out into the intimate area, and direct it onto their partners or another intimate relation. Post here: [x]. Another example of an other oriented 1 is Terrence Fletcher, the bald guy in Whiplash. I type him as LSE sexual/social 1. Look at this clip. He is, like Paris, a hardcore competency tester. In another scene he calls out someone different for not playing correctly. He asked the guy, if he thinks, he is out of tune and that guy is so afraid, that he says yes. Fletcher throws him out, and tells the other people in the room, that that guy wasn’t out of tune, but if he doesn’t know the difference, he deserves to be thrown out – hardcore competency tester. This trait is really evident in ST 1s.

    * these were all rather extreme examples to make the distinctions and differences clearer

    ** note: I didn't mean to draw a strict correlation, so or sx 1 -> not necessarily an other oriented perfectionist, also perfectionist -> not necessarily E1.
