Sociotypograph - determine your type by selecting 3-4 Reinin traits

I got LSE.

I really was sure about being Tactical > Strategic. I think I do tend to make decisions based on the current state of things and abandon other decisions because they are no longer appropriate to the current state. It's often difficult for me to have an unchanging goal in sight. It's much easier to adjust the goal to something else mid-way I think. (Unless I'm playing chess which I'm not really any good at, but I've noticed it's hard for me to abandon my plan even if some things are happening that I should be paying attention to instead. I just want my plan to be carried out so I can get the "checkmate" feeling.)

And I really did think Yielding > Obstinate. I wish it were more difficult to change my mind. I think I naturally tend towards compromise.

And I thought Emotive > Constructive. I think that I'm actually quite emotionally reactive in my mind at least. I think that the feeling of something can bombard me and that I may start adjusting to it or seeing it over anything else. I think this can occur on a subtle cognitive level.

And then I picked Reasonable > Decisive. I do find it hard to function on the spot without external motivation. I am typically pretty indecisive.

I'm really not LSE though. I could understand SLI, but not LSE.

if this is what tactical means then i'm definitely tactical. i picked it at first and then i got confused and unclicked. i hate how all the little pieces of wording in all these different descriptions throws me off.

Can become 'emotionally hooked', and can have a strong reaction to a particular part or section regardless of their feelings towards the entirety.

this post is pointless and confusion-breeding. i think you're some Ni base ftr. just thinking out loud from seeing your post.

reinin dichotomies are hard!

I absolutely do not get some of the descriptions on that test... but the wiki descriptions inspire an urge to smack something.

Are you accusing my post of being pointless and confusion-breeding??? If you were, I would be flabbergasted to be sure.

Hmm. Regarding the Emotivist descriptions I think that both actually work for me to mean something similar. The one on the test suggests first perceiving the emotional implication of something (it need not be of the whole thing, it could simply be a reaction to one thing that ignores the entire broader picture) over the larger meaning. I could see someone who tends to do this also tending to perceive first the emotion behind someone's point while their own mood somewhat adjusts to it, rather than actually hearing the point which may not align with the perceived emotions. So inside one might throw an emo fit over one little point without evaluating the entire subject or even taking the time to. I really do see myself in some ways as being prone to this. I think I do it in a less emo way while still doing it. It's easy and perhaps intellectually lazy to zero in one thing (never mind if it's relevant) and have a reaction to it. I really think that I can tend to do this at times and I see it as a flaw. For instance you could say I did this in Aqua's Dead Cat Artist thread.

Anyway I think the description on the test and the one you quoted seem to kind of be getting at the same thing.

I've never really been able to apply the Reinin dichotomies and I don't really think they're going to be terribly useful in the end or even that they line up neatly to Model A. But this doesn't seem to stop me from posting. Sniff.
