Easiest way to tell them apart is through intertypes: is LSE your "activator"? do LSIs feel like "conflit" types"? does ESE feel like "benefactor" in communication? Obstinate/yielding differences also tend to stand out - IEEs as "obstinate" types tend to be protective and formative of their interests and opinions, while IEIs simply get curious, and will dive into and readily share their interests with others: http://wikisocion.org/en/index.php?t...haracteristics
I am pretty protective of what I believe in but at the same time I've learned that often it's just easier to agree with people so I tend to do that as well; it's easier than arguing and I have a lot of views that conflict with other peoples'. Those could always change though
