    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    Default What's Your Phone Background? (Instinct Theory)

    Plain black. Like my soul. Mostly to save energy and because background images are distracting as hell its hard to read the text behind them and I hate user customisations. Like it’s that way for a reason.


    Edit: Am sx first.

    That is a beautiful pic imo.
    The Barnum or Forer effect is the tendency for people to judge that general, universally valid statements about personality are actually specific descriptions of their own personalities. A "universally valid" statement is one that is true of everyone—or, more likely, nearly everyone. It is not known why people tend to make such misjudgments, but the effect has been experimentally reproduced.

    The psychologist Paul Meehl named this fallacy "the P.T. Barnum effect" because Barnum built his circus and dime museum on the principle of having something for everyone. It is also called "the Forer effect" after its discoverer, the psychologist Bertram R. Forer, who modestly dubbed it "the fallacy of personal validation".

    Welp, my phone background is no longer my boyfriend, sadly. As much as I love seeing his face, it wasn't working out functionality wise because I couldn't see the text on some widgets. Now it's a boring, almost plain black background with neon app icons. At least I can read my deadline countdowns and such, though.

    I joined the "most people you know" category the other day. Now it's a pic of my brother and I goofing around that my aunt took while I was back in the States this Christmas. I feel like that's a special case though. We've always been really close and hadn't seen each other in 2 years. It's not normally like me to use pics of people

    Social because you're focused on real-life interactions instead of constantly staring at your phone, which would emblazon your phone background in your mind.

    (Kidding of course. I don't think there's any correlation to be found here—NTR.)

    i was joking too, your reply made me laugh tho.
    But you're kinda right, I don't focus on screens much, currently playing with my cat between two words.

    Yeah I know.

    I find this one significant because I drew a very similar image one time when I was 20. I was in art class and we were asked to draw whatever random shapes came from our hands. It was called automatic drawing or something. This was before I knew about Jung so I've always seen it as likely to be a coincidence, but maybe a flirtation with the collective unconscious if that actually exists.

    I also just think that all of Jung's illustrations are some of the most beautiful art I've ever seen.

    So, I have checked. It's the face of a character I like, staring right at who ever is on the other side of the screen.

    Tho my lock screen is something like roses, I find it less personal and people tend to expect that kind of things from me.
    Wait, is it? I'm not sure anymore.
    10 seconds' all I need to forget, dear lord. I'm sure it's nature related at least.

    Quotes don't count. Does that apply to someone here? Do mixed versions occur? As in, Sx/So has one person or sometimes a group? What is your background like?

    You can post it if you want to. Maybe this can help giving very fast clues about a person's stacking with an unusual/trivial method!


    Observations that led to the theory (you can skip this unless you want some detailed examples):

    I monitored my own pictures and it's usually one person indeed, often just the face. Sometimes it's a statue as well. I had some wallpaper with birds but there was a quote on it (about how one needs music to survive, kinda SX). Some SP stuff I had was lotus blossoms and a sky picture. What I noticed was that I never had any group scenery, more than 2 people = nil report

    Mom's background is almost always nature-related including her paintings, here and there a person, she's SP/SX.

    My SO/SX friend has group pics plastered all over his backgrounds and default pictures on every device. I checked his facebook for fun, his profile picture shows a gigantic disco mob (SO) and him with 4 close friends (SX) on the header I compared that to mine, which has a painting of a supposedly "mysterious" woman (SX) as the profile picture and pouring rain (SP) as the header, I just realized I market myself as E4 SX/SP

     




    My phone background is the default background. If I chose a new background for it, it probably wouldn't have people. The only reason why I would ever put someone's face on there was if I really loved them.

    I match the description for 6 Sp, but have Sx/Sp-like characteristics.

    Edit: The kind of imagery I would likely have as a background would probably be either nature oriented or dark. Think intense.

    Edit 2: A potential type of image that I might use on a phone is attached.

    My phone backgrounds are usually of nature, either real-life photos or drawings of such. Last month tho, I had as my background a drawing of a young girl looking out into a snowy landscape because a guy sent it to me and told me that the girl's vibes were the same as mine.

    So far, I think I'm SP/SO
