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 warm quality, she is very ... bambi - puppy dog eyes.

To contrast an LSE 1 and a SEI 6 some clips of the show Gilmore Girls. Paris Gellar is a LSE social E1. Rory is a SEI self-preservational E6. Some LSE E1 are 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 remarks in the show about Rory 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 even can get along with Paris. She just has this 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.

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 give them a more high charged quality. 1 are often called as perfectionist in profiles. In
this article they propose 3 types of perfectionists. Self- oriented, self prescribed and other – oriented.



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 preservational 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. Reactivity – deep down 1 can resent the authority figure, when they feel they get pushed too much, they can start to act 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 machavillian 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 E1 is Terrence Fletcher, the bald guy in Whiplash. I type him as LSE sexual 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 they 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 extreme examples to make the distinctions and differences clearer
I agree with ST compentency testing, most evident in the extroverts.
