G-man typed me ILE with two DCNH subtypes - normalizing and harmonzing. He has an interesting reasoning style that I think shows HP cognition quite well. Kinda like a mental form of this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensegrity
Cool, first peripheral quadra member. Identification with H-P cog is what helped nail my self-typing originally.

I had identified most with harmonizing. I'm kind of confused about how a pair of dichotomies can produce two results, but I remember reading an article several years ago where gulenko is talking about sort of the quirks of his underlying ideas about psychology where he says he essentially thinks personality is a fractal, so this isn't necessarily inconsistent with that.

Daddy Gulenky has made probably $2k from this forum now.
I think Ne egos (and many other statics) are usually among the surest self typers. Dunno why. They have only few doubts as everyone should and keep them alive.

Question for those who have already been typed/received their additional questions. Did Viktor share his first hypothesis about your type with you? Can't wait to receive that e-mail, but I guess I wont have it until next week, which seems like ages away from here... :-)
I think I'm most likely EII but if I get IEE that would make sense to me, too. Especially depending on the subtype influencing me either way. There are parts of both descriptions that resonate but EII is most accurate to me overall. IEI or EIE would seem wrong to me. Se use scares me off from people, I literally leave when people start using it lmao. Temperament-wise I would definitely say I'm more Ij than anything else, too.
He didn't! Drove me nuts, I was kind of hoping he would lol. I know it's taking longer because he's busier right now, and they did warn me about that before I paid. From watching other people's videos and comparing them to the questions I got, I thiiiink maybe I know what type he's narrowing me down to?

IEI-C!! You know how I said earlier it would seem wrong to me? He actually asked for my permission to use my 2nd video in demonstrations because I'm such a good representative of this type hahahaha.
Apparently I get less mood swings because my subtype gives me an elevated mood. He also said my closest friend, who I'd always thought was an LIE, represents the aspects of a dual relationship.
I got a bad grade in socionics! I failed my self-typing hahahaha! (honestly, I'm actually going to go back and reread the articles and see what the hell I missed if I'm such an obvious IEI.)
~we're just out here havin a good time~
I am aware that everyone does this differently. But I have to say that when I typed myself I didn't rely on any article or specific understanding of socionics to type myself. I met some duals, supervisors etc. and I realized that this is a natural phenomenon. It's the naturalness of it that caught my attention. So it was mostly about actual reality. It was only later I began to understand the theory.
A true sense-perception certainly exists, but it always looks as though objects were not so much forcing their way into the subject in their own right as that the subject were seeing things quite differently, or saw quite other things than the rest of mankind. As a matter of fact, the subject perceives the same things as everybody else, only, he never stops at the purely objective effect, but concerns himself with the subjective perception released by the objective stimulus.

Yeah...I'd like to formally rescind everybody I've ever typed in an anecdote for now and just go read the book already hahah.
I haven't, I was feeling shy lol. But if my videos are gonna be used in demonstrations, anyways...screw it I'll throw some of the report and the videos into a "type me" thread hahaha!
You were on to me this whole time!![]()
~we're just out here havin a good time~
Yeah I started picking at it and reading some descriptions here and there but...ehhh it's a very dry book lmao
& yes! It makes up for getting quadra, temperment...the other stuff being off.At least I got the right IME & dimensions! So I wasn't off enough to get an ST type or something hahaha. & I can explain the strong Ne with creative subtype so that makes sense.
Oh yeah & I posted my vids in a separate thread so I don't clog up this one too much :3
~we're just out here havin a good time~
lol everytime I start reading it I feel it’s stuff I’ve read before. I think I read a lot of stuff from the book off the website. I’m sure not all.
I will watch them. I have a toddler that loves my phone so
it'll have to be later
I never shared the videos I sent to G on here. I’ve posted vids on the forum before but don’t feel like being evaluated by the whole forum right now (haven’t been in the mood) when I just wanted to be typed by G. And I talk about my personal life. But if anyone wants to see them out of curiosity, I would send them in a message...just FYI to whoever... figured I might as well put the offer up since I’ve seen others share![]()
It might be a good idea for you to go through Gulenko's articles and book about these types and relate them to how he typed you, while ignoring the other socionics things. Gulenko's descriptions don't always match up with others, and while this is typical for socionics as a whole, a lot of the things that he sees in LSIs are things that I had thought would be Delta Te after going through various other sources.
Yeah I agree.
Alot of the stuff I relate to in more classical model A socionics could be gamma NT, while in G's system and writings I get the sense that this gamma NT stuff I relate to isn't particularly relevant to type. Indeed, alot depends on which traits one considers relevant to type, and different schools of socionics are really slightly different typology systems.
What good is a book that does not even transport us beyond all books?

what a farse
I noticed that too! Especially for the type descriptions, a lot of it must've already been translated well enough online since it all seemed so familiar. I think the most interesting parts were the subtype descriptions, and those were the only things I'd never been able to find outside of the book.
& Don't feel pressured to share just cause I did it! I was just curious about what other people would think since it was so different from what I expected, and since he was so confident in what I got. It would be totally up to you![]()
~we're just out here havin a good time~
Definitelyhonestly until lately, last few months, I only felt like I very vaguely got DCNH. Admittedly never looked that far into it. So this has been a learning experience! felt like I’ve learned more about socionics in the last few months than in the last 6 years
it’s like it all just started clicking for me.
oh no, don’t worry. I don’t feel pressured. I had been thinking of offering to send curious people my typing videos anyway. you posting yours was extremely helpful to my learning experience in all this and just spurred me to put the offer out there. The questions you were asked on your second video were different than mine, but a few were the same. I just didn’t want to start a thread to be typed. Been there, done that here several times![]()
