Unless Gulenko retracted or revised his theory, he approached it from the POV of both dichotomies and functions (Holographic Panoramic Ne)

Connecting / Ignoring "is the subtype refinement of the classical dichotomy static/dynamic."
Terminating / Initiating "is a concretization of the dichotomy rationality/irrationality"

"Strengthening the linear-assertive functions , whatever position this pair occupies within the framework of the sociomodel, forms a dominant subtype (D)."
"Strengthening the receptive-adaptive functions engenders a harmonizing subtype (H)."


(I don't speak Russian or have Gulenko's book, so maybe he changed it)


I agree terminating fits how you describe yourself. I'm not sure your idea of connecting is accurate if you pick and choose Borisova instead of Gulenko. DCNH is already fringe socionics, now we're even further out into someone else's interpretation of DCNH.

Contact / Distant is basically social vs reclusive; MBTI extroversion / MBTI introversion.



Terminal / Initial is something like what MBTI wants J / P to mean.





Implicit relation between dynamic and connecting

Yeah I didn't really buy into that Borisova claim, it doesn't seem likely that these dichotomies would be completely decoupled from Reinin, for example.

Google also found this interesting post on DCNH: https://www.reddit.com/r/mbti/commen...ubtype_system/

Even more food for thought, and links to Gulenko's articles (google translate works):

I did the little pen and paper test (this was actually linked before on another thread here), and got SLE, with 3/5 for initiating and 2/5 for terminating. Exactly the same as I got in the web-based test, actually. So there maybe wasn't anything wrong with that test after all, @ergot

The descriptions afterwards imply that Initiating is the creative subtype (SLE-Ti) and Terminating is the inert subtype (SLE-Se).

In the list of descriptions from the first link, C seems more fitting than N. Underlined things I like about them for myself:

Dominant:
Uses Te and Fe outside of their basic roles for their type. This subtype has the highest similarity with it's base type description because of the emphasis on the dominant function. This is the most ambitious and driven subtype often taking on leadership roles and the lest comfortable with following orders if they don't align with their existing goals. They like structure because it help them efficiently achieve their goals but they don't have the patience to figure out all the details. As a result they are surprisingly good at following the Normalizing's subtype demands and instructions. They are the most self motivating but often they are unsuccessful in meeting their ambitions because of their inflexible nature and lack of patience for details.

The Dominant subtype relies on it's dominant function even more then it's usual for a type inserting it in to every aspect of their life. Their ambitious goals also revolve around this function and the wish to get some sort of social recognition for their skill an effort in the domain of their dominant. Because of the emphasis on the dominant function weaker functions are often ignored by this type leading to a rather rigid and limited approach to problem-solving.


Normalizer:

Uses Ti and Fi outside of their basic roles for their type. Highest priority is order and structure in the personal space. What that structure is applied to depends on the type, for example Fe doms will show a Ji like obsession with rules and consistency in social relations while an Si dom is more like to be highly particular about their physical space. However even Normalizers with vulnerable Si will have strong preferences for how theyr things are arranged. It's important to note that the "order" might not look like anything to an outside observer but move one thing out of place and you'll quickly find out you're dealing with a Normalizing subtype. They rarely show ambition or initiative but are energized when presented with clear goals and objectives. Normalizers will almost always practice what they preach implementing in their lives the same order they demand of others. This along with their focus on their counterbalancing weaker functions makes them the most adaptive and self-reliant type.

The Normalizing subtype emphases it's role function (the shadow of the inferior) even though it's uncomfortable. They tend to resent people who make them assume use their Role however ("Why do I have to do everything? If people just did thing the RIGHT way this wouldn't happen?").


Harmonizing:
Uses Ni and Si outside of their basic roles for their type. On first examination the Harmonizing subtype seems to have non of his type usual social imperfections instead giving of a vibe of soft a appropriate "social appropriateness". They are easily made uncomfortable by social conflict and will act in a self sacrificial manner to restore harmony. Their nature can be mistaken for being an Fe users by those who believe Fe = selflessness. A Harmonizing ESTJ, for example will always be around to get a friend out of trouble or help them figure out their life (Adam Braverman from "Parenthood. Harmonizers combine social grace with subtlety being able to lead a social situation to a desired outcome without alienating others.
The Harmonizing subtype is more willing to use their vulnerable function (the shadow of the tertiary) then any other subtype. This is often done in a self-sacrificial manner in the service of others.



Creative:
Uses Ne and Se outside of their basic roles for their type. Most flexible subtype so most of the time they are the least similar to their type description. They show similarities with their mirror type (INTP with ENTP for example). They usually put a lot of effort towards their hobbies or other creative activities. Their projects are treated as something personal and they show lite interest towards publicizing or sharing the results of their work with others. They prefer to start new personal projects rather than cooperate and maintain the work of others. If having to maintain something started by another person they will try to remake and improve the original. When something hinders them personally they simply renounce it, ignoring it and distancing themselves from it. Because of the focus on personal actualization this type often struggles with adapting to societies or the groups expectations.

The Creative subtype uses their Auxialry function then any other subtype using it as much as the dominant most of the time. This is done in the service of their own personal projects and interests.

It's also interesting that this post says:
The subtypes represent a continuum. A person can have any position along the edges of the diamond (so you could be somewhere between Creative and Dominant). One of the subtypes will usually be more prominent however. As subtypes are an adaptation to certain social environments they change during a person's life. A regular person will go through at least two subtypes in their lifetime but a lot more changes than that are possible.

Something in-between C and N could make sense as I've from the start identified with both of these subtypes. C fits best out of this post's descriptions. Analyzing the three DCNH dichotomies it seems like falling in between for contact/distance and terminating/initiating but pretty clearly into ignoring (which is the shared dichotomy for N and C).
