Please provide IEI DCNH subtype descriptions
I would like some assistance with figuring out my DCNH subtype.
It would be very helpful if people could provide descriptions of each DCNH subtype for IEIs, or how to spot each subtype in IEIs. Any other helpful DCNH information is appreciated as well.
Thanks!
Dominant Subtype
Lyrist — Mocker
Prototypes: Those who mock the shortcomings of an existing system
Distinguished by impulsivity, this subtype is prompt in her actions. She
suddenly initiates work, then gets distracted by something else, though
after a while she returns to her task. She’s internally restless
and inconsistent in her desires. She can have sudden mood swings —
from laughter to tears and vice versa. Passionately arguing her ideas, she
takes advice only when she’s calm and then follows it only until her next
emotional outburst.
She loves to talk about a variety of unusual events or emerging
developments. Sensing danger, her anxious mood spreads. At the same
time, she doesn’t lose faith in winning. She may even reassure the
discouraged, giving them an emotional boost. She closely associates moral
anguish with physical suffering.
She never backs down when faced with sudden aggression or tension. In
extreme situations, she inspires admiration or surprises others with her
fearlessness in the face of danger. She never gives in to forceful pressure
and is able to stand her ground.
She has tendencies towards practicality and thriftiness, but a regular
working rhythm is something she cannot sustain for a prolonged time.
Sometimes wasteful and uneconomical, under a rush of emotions, she may
indulge in superfluous purchases. She looks down upon people who are
miserly or greedy with small things.
She is often ironic and sarcastic, and even prefers to present unpleasant
things jokingly, with a smile. Quite in need of praise and encouragement,
she is sensitive when her work is criticized but also takes offense if her
efforts go unnoticed. She seeks to lead in personal relationships.
Creative Subtype
Lyrist — Excited
Prototype: Admirer of rare phenomena or unusual behaviors able to
reflect and direct their feelings into creative products
This subtype is emotional, charming, and sociable. She easily and
naturally makes contact with people, although it is difficult for her to keep
herself constantly in high spirits. Her gifts are spontaneity,
sincerity, and cordiality. Figuratively, and with subtle humor, she talks
about her experiences and what she has seen. She knows how to lighten the
mood around her, discussing unusual situations and stories.
She does not tolerate routine and monotony well, and she dislikes
stereotypical expectations and strict rules. She cannot submit to
regulations and instructions and is prone to impromptu and improvised
actions. She chooses an opportune moment to suddenly attract attention.
She willingly gives compliments, especially to those considered
authorities. Her requests are laid out in such a manner that makes it
difficult to refuse.
Well-versed in the feelings and moods of people, she is able to find an
individual approach for each person. Using her ability to inspire
confidence, she forges useful contacts to achieve her goals and finds the
most appropriate players available. It happens that successes occur in
those instances where she is motivated by a strong desire and favorable
circumstances.
She permits an “artistic” mess in her apartment or workplace. She
hardly considers economical and sober approaches to her affairs, yet in
extreme situations she can be quite adventurous.
She is graceful and gentle in motion and strives to express herself
through clothes, but she won’t cross the line separating originality from
vulgarity. She demonstrates sophistication in her specific manner of
communication, from which she draws the attention of others.
Normalizing Subtype
Lyrist — Reconciler
Prototype: A mediator between parties on the same team with
conflicting interests
Sensitive and attentive to people, she is able to maintain friendly
relations. She can be relied upon. She exhibits a tolerant attitude to other
people’s shortcomings and weaknesses. She finds it difficult to
create or deal with conflict. In disputes, her focus is not on differences
but rather on unifying points, aiming to reconcile. She hopes that her
kindness and dedication will eventually be rewarded.
She is fairly apprehensive and is prone to doubt and fluctuations when
making important decisions; therefore, she’s in need of moral and physical
support. She needs to be involved in matters with clear objectives in front
of her. She completes assignments responsibly. She respects strong,
influential people who confidently explain their position and give specific
instructions. In work, she tends to lose a sense of reality, and is distracted
by trifles she never has time to complete within a set period due to more
important things.
Owing to distractions, she sometimes forgets to fulfill promises, but is
then eager to make amends. For the sake of maintaining good relationships
with family and fulfilling the requirements of her position, she tries to
develop business skills and carry out family responsibilities. She is quite
organized and thorough in everyday life.
She will not impose her own feelings if they are not reciprocated;
however, relationships that have run their course aren’t severed
immediately, as she becomes accustomed to people. She is able to wait
patiently, coaxing them to start all over again. She may endure severe
hardships for the sake of her ideals or present feelings.
Harmonizing Subtype
Lyrist — Dreamer
Prototypes: Naive optimistic dreamers, such as Manilov of Dead Souls
by Ukrainian playwright Nikolai Gogol
The harmonizing subtype is soft and considerate. She has a soulful,
poetic personality, and at heart is a dreamer and romanticist. She possesses
a sophisticated view of the world and is willing to share her views and
concerns with others. She seeks understanding, empathy and support.
8. Intuitive Ethical Introvert (IEI): The Lyric Poet
Light, reconciling, hopeful about the future, while disorganized
General Description
IEI is a romantic dreamer and visionary. She is curious, and interested
in anything that is novel, unusual, or fascinating. She leaves an impression
with her unexpected, sometimes extravagant behavior and statements. She
has a refined sense of humor and knows how to comfort a person and
uplift their mood.
She is emotive and charming, and may smile even when she is saying
something unpleasant. She is insistent in her demands when she is strongly
motivated. She knows how to pick a good moment to approach a person
with her requests. She freely manages her own time and that of others.
IEI is attentive to her own appearance and that of others, and is aware of
how appearances influence people. If necessary, she dresses elegantly,
even exquisitely. In a demobilized state, she complains about her life and
hardships. She likes when she is looked after, when someone is attentive to
her worries. She finds it difficult to give up comforts that she has grown
accustomed to.
Without strong directives, she becomes disorganized and demobilized.
She cannot focus her attention on a task for lengthy periods of time. In
handling money, she is uneconomical and careless: she may spend a large
sum of money on something “for the heart and soul.” She may make
promises that she hasn’t considered thoroughly. She entertains herself to
drown out disturbing premonitions.
Appearance
The most characteristic feature, which makes it possible to assume with
certainty that a person belongs to this sociotype, is an elegant appearance.
IEI is very sensitive to harmony and balance. The feeling of composition
allows her to dress very exquisitely at times. She perfectly selects her
accessories and makeup, etc. She can be overly concerned and particular
about her appearance. This applies to both women and men. The second
feature relates to gait and figure. Figures of IEI can be both thin and quite
full, and the more developed the intuitive component, the more
pronounced the propensity to fullness. But regardless of the figure, IEI
owns her body well. The gait is often graceful, sometimes even artsy, with
pacing. A more emotional version of the IEI is easily recognizable by
vigorous gestures. The eyes are typically narrow, but the more intuitive
subtype’s eyes are wide and curious. During a conversation, sometimes she
has a tendency to look into the eyes of the interlocutor, and also take them
by the hand.
Detailed Description
In her behavior, the IEI is guided by her intuitive presentiments. Due to
this quality, she is capable of surviving in the most difficult situations. She
quickly distinguishes falsehood, hypocrisy, artifice, and degradation. She
often acts as if she has time to spare and puts off much until tomorrow.
She is inclined to optimism and believes in a bright future. Pictures and
visions that IEI creates in her mind are usually much more attractive to
her than everyday life proves to be. She can calm people down, instill hope
and inspire them by telling of coming changes for the better. In conversation, she dislikes
highlighting mistakes of the past.
IEI is well-versed in nuances and ways of emotional life. She is able to
discern when a person is in a good mood and will then turn to them with a
request; therefore, it can be difficult to turn her down. She graciously
responds to the humor in life. She tells jokes and anecdotes, acts in jest,
and prods those close to her, evoking positive emotions in different ways.
She responds to conflicts between people who are close to her with
sensitivity. She seeks reconciliation and readily agrees to compromise. She
will willingly sacrifice herself to settle conflicts. She is internally troubled
and experiences a lot, but hides her agitation and poor mood behind a soft
smile.
IEI invests time and effort to look after her appearance. She knows how
to dress in style and good taste. Her graceful, aesthetic movements are
pleasing to the eye. She is flexible and adaptable, and she does not impose
herself on anybody. Instead, she puts in the effort to adjust to the habits
and tastes of those around her. Sometimes she complains about her health,
poor care, or indifference; however, in extreme situations will pull herself
together and suppress her pains. In a comfortable environment around
familiar acquaintances, she gains confidence and strength. In such
situations she may even allow herself to issue orders.
IEI is not inclined to save up money or keep strict track of her finances.
She may spend substantial sums on aesthetically pleasing (from her point
of view) items that aren’t always useful. If she falls into financial
difficulties, she knows who to turn to for help or finds something that she
can sell. In long-term relationships, she does not forget to take into
account pragmatic considerations. She does not get along well with those
who force her to work at an unusual or uncomfortable pace and rhythm.
She hopes for leniency, indulgences, and “smoke breaks” at work.
She gets along with people who are sure of themselves, who are strong
and determined. However, she does not allow her relationships to turn into
despotism — in such cases, IEI will openly declare the
stupidity and primitiveness of blunt force. She has a good sense of
which kind of force to apply to achieve her goals. She resorts to forceful
methods only when she feels a physical threat to herself or her loved ones.
If she is in a constant state of discomfort, she begins to behave
provocatively, rudely, and aggressively; she does it to hide her soft nature.
In the absence of strong leadership, IEI becomes relaxed and disorganized
to the point of carelessness. It is easy to knock her off the right track, to
tempt her with something that promises a pleasant experience. She easily
acquires bad habits, and getting rid of them requires a lot of effort.
When there is no clarity and the situation is ambiguous, IEI’s mood
spoils; she feels lost and confused. Chaos, disorganization, and lack of
support plunge her into despair. She begins to act enthusiastically when
she is relying on a thoughtful, logical plan aligned with a clear end goal in
sight. She is in need of various designs, schemes, and methods. In extreme
situations, she becomes cool and unemotional. Her thoughts become
clearer, and she finds it easier to undertake informed decisions. She
dislikes strict, meticulous control. Constant, firm discipline is not for her.
Life values and ideals are one of IEI’s weak points. She feels very
worried if time passes, compromises and concessions become delayed, and
still no resolution has been found. She is intolerant of oppression, of the
leveling of her and others’ abilities. She lives by the principle of noninterference
in the internal world of the individual, though she can give
valuable advice on unraveling one’s abilities if she is asked about this. Of
her own abilities, the IEI is usually very critical and often underestimates
them. She is afraid of being incompetent, not useful, and unneeded;
therefore, she is in need of compliments and encouragement. She is good
at choosing the most promising ideas from available ones. She searches
for an occupation that would correspond to her ideal of service to others.
She supports her attitudes with actions. For those whom she loves, the
IEI can do a lot. She is adventurous and enterprising if
she feels she has the approval of others. She regularly performs her
duties only on a team with an established system of interpersonal
relations. She warns that personal enmity and discord will lead to the
collapse of the project. She tries to ensure that her professional
relationships are also accompanied by favorable informal ties. She
contributes to a group a harmonious beginning. When persuading people,
she manages relationships in a manner that seems most beneficial to her.
She successfully relates to her acquaintances and uses personal charm.
Manner of Communication
In interaction, a notable trait that allows us to reliably identity a person
belonging to this sociotype is an apprehensive, somewhat shy smile, which
appears when IEI feels agitated, or when the conversation subject turns to
her. She is curious about all that is unusual and original and is inclined to
chatter about all sorts of interesting trivialities. It’s difficult to focus her
attention on essential things. She may disrupt the general line of the
conversation by suddenly asking off-topic questions. She likes listening to
interesting or simply entertaining and funny stories and will also recall
funny episodes from her life. Sometimes in conversation she wavers,
becomes coquettish, and delays giving a final answer, but has already
decided on everything for herself. She is inclined to make empty promises
and always finds excuses to get out of her commitments such as: “I wanted
to, but could not,” “because of the circumstances,” etc. She likes to talk
about her impracticality, but despite this, she also can take up and finish
commercial and business projects fairly well. She is flexible and
resourceful; this helps her to keep her position for a long time. She’s not a
bad manager or leader due to the fact that she can usually pick reliable
associates. She persuades and calms people who are upset and confused,
telling them that not all is lost, that everything ahead is still to come, and
other encouragements in the same key.
Features of Behavior
Watching the IEI for some time, it is easy to notice a particular contrast
between her behavior in public or unfamiliar company and among
familiars, including at home. In public the IEI always behaves gently and
politely, not permitting herself any rudeness or disrespect. But in a circle
of close friends, she can sometimes behave uninhibitedly. She likes to fool
around, to create unusual situations. She stirs people up to evoke positive
emotions. At home she can be moody and capricious, stubbornly getting
her way. She may even put on tears and provoke scandals. These emotional
outbursts pass quickly, however, without hurting her very deeply. Her
emotions are very flexible, switching on and off consciously. In dealing
with money, she can be a spendthrift and cannot refuse herself anything,
even going into debt if her own means are not enough. She loves a
beautiful, lush life, and thus makes great demands. She is inclined to
marriages of convenience. She likes to be cared for, to be healed and
treated, for someone to listen to her complaints about her poor state of
health, suffering, etc. She accumulates complaints about herself so that
later when a good opportunity comes up, she can spill them out all at once.
I. Command Function +T — Temporal Intuition
In her behavior, she is guided by intuitive presentiments. Due to this
quality, IEI is able to survive in the most difficult situations, as she
quickly distinguishes artificiality, falsehood, hypocrisy, and degradation.
IEI freely disposes of her own and others’ time. She always acts as if she
has plenty of time to spare. Much is postponed for tomorrow, as she is a
great dreamer and has a lyrical nature. The paintings that her imagination
draws, vivid and bright, are much more attractive to her than everyday
life. She believes in a good future. She calms people and gives them hope
in phrases about quick changes for the better. She does not focus on the
mistakes of the past.
2. Realization Function —R — Relations Ethics
IEI reinforces her attitude with actions. For loved ones, she will do a lot.
She becomes enterprising if she feels she is gaining sympathy from others.
She reliably performs her present duties only in a team with an established
system of interpersonal relationships. She warns that personal enmity and
disagreement will lead to the collapse of the business. She does everything
she can to ensure that business relations are accompanied by favorable
informal ties. She introduces a harmonizing force into the work collective.
Capable of persuading people, she manages her relationships in such a way
that the business turns to its advantageous side. She successfully uses
acquaintances and personal charm.
3. Role Function +S — Comfort Sensation
Much effort is put into her appearance. She can dress elegantly and
tastefully. Graceful, she pleases the eye with aesthetic movements. IEI is
not intrusive and makes efforts to fit in with the habits and tastes of other
people. She is very agreeable, yet, she complains to people about health,
poor self-care, and indifference. Nevertheless, in extreme situations, she
collects and suppresses the pain. She acquires confidence and strength in a
comfortable environment with a familiar circle of acquaintances. In this
case, she allows herself to lead.
4. Triggering Function -L — Structural Logic
When a situation is unclear and ambiguous, it spoils her mood, and she
becomes confused. Chaos, lack of organization, and a lack of support cast
her into despair. She acts with enthusiasm when relying on a thoughtful,
logically adjusted plan with a clear ultimate goal. IEI appreciates schemes
and technologies created by others. In extreme situations, she becomes
cold-blooded: her brain works more clearly, making informed decisions
more easily. Her mood is ruined by micromanagement and petty control. A
constant firm discipline is not for her.
5. Demonstrative Function +E — Emotional Ethics
She is well-versed in the laws of the emotional lives of people. She is
able to make requests at the right time (when a person is in
a good mood), so it is difficult to refuse her. She reacts sensitively to the
funny things in life and she loves humor. She jokes, fools around, and
bothers people close to her, creating positive emotions in a variety of
ways. She is peaceful and cannot tolerate quarrels between people who are
close to her. She forgives easily and is willing to make sacrifices for the
sake of remedying a conflict. She is inwardly anxious. IEI experiences a
lot, but hides excitement and a bad mood behind a soft smile.
6. Dual Function -F — Force Sensation
IEI gets along with people who are strong, determined and selfconfident.
However, she will not allow this to come to despotism. She
openly declares the primitivity of dull power. She knows the amount of
force to exert to achieve her goals; however, she decides to use forceful
methods only when she feels a physical threat to herself or her relatives. If
she is constantly in uncomfortable situations, she begins to behave in an
emphatically rude and defiant manner. She does this in order to hide her
mild, victimized character. Without firm leadership, she is relaxed and can
lean toward disorder. She is easily knocked off of her path and can be
seduced by something that promises pleasant sensations. She develops bad
habits easily and abandons them only with the help of an external force.
7. Braking Function +P — Business Logic
She does not know how to save money or keep a strict accounting of her
finances. She spends her money on beautiful, but not necessarily useful
things. If she gets into financial difficulties, she knows who she can turn to
for help; she may sell some of her possessions if necessary. Long-term
relationships with her often include pragmatic calculations. Marriage of
convenience is more attractive to her than a union for love. Relationships
with those who make her work hard or work in a rhythm that is not
characteristic of her are bad. Instead, she hopes for indulgence,
forgiveness from bosses, and mini breaks during periods of hard work.
8.Controlling Function -I — Opportunity Intuition
IEI’s life values and ideals are one of her vulnerable points. She
becomes very worried if time passes and compromises and concessions
are delayed without finding a solution. She does not tolerate oppression or
the leveling of abilities, both her own or those of the people around her.
She lives by the principle of noninterference in the inner world of an
individual, though she could offer valuable advice on the disclosure of
abilities if allowed. She is very critical of her own abilities and often
understates them, yet she is afraid to remain mediocre and unnoticed. She
needs compliments and encouragement. She chooses the most promising
ideas among those available and is always looking for an occupation that
would correspond to her ideal of serving people.
Recommendations for Self-Improvement
Your forte is a developed intuitive perception that allows you to learn
from the mistakes of the past in order to ensure a better future. You
envision the future in optimistic terms. You are imaginative and romantic
in nature, and enjoy the beauty and art in life. Your creative nature does
not tolerate banality and mediocrity. You bring elements of elegance and
originality into anything you do.
You are well-versed in the attitudes of people and have a good sense of
humor, knowing how to use it to improve your own mood and the moods
of others. You possess a rich inner world of diverse impressions and
feelings, and you’re very dependent on the nuances of your own inner
states. You experience heightened, sublime emotions and tend to idealize
people. You introduce aspects of celebration and sublimity into your
surrounding world.
Your main problem is that you find it difficult to regularly perform
boring, everyday tasks of a purely material or pragmatic nature. You are
usually not economical with your finances and have difficulty with
housekeeping. You find it difficult to resist the temptation to purchase
beautiful things, the cost of which may be beyond your budget. Be
careful not to waste money on unnecessary trinkets: you are at risk of
suffering financially.
how more restraint in spending so as to not put yourself into a
humiliating position that requires you to find ways to pay off debts, even
selling your things. Don’t be tempted by your lofty visions and illusions of
an “easy” life while ignoring moral considerations and attempting to avoid
the daily grind. Let your sincere feelings guide you towards the right
choice when you have to select between the material and the immaterial
aspects of life.
Your other problem is that you are not inclined to hide your frustrations
and complaints from others; you may tire others with your complaining,
making them question the sincerity of your sentiments. Refrain from
making excessive demands of others or complaining about the lack of care
in your relationships. To gain the attention and goodwill of others, try to
temper some of the moodiness in your character.
Be more generous and show active support for people. Try to earn good
favor through diligence and hard work and by active participation in
common affairs. Refrain from giving empty promises. Do not spend your
free time in dreams, barren emotional conversations, or analyzing secret
anxieties. If you devote more of your time to real concrete activities, your
chances to succeed in life will increase significantly
LOL idk how I ever thought I was IEI.. I mean I prefer to tough it out and endure hardship and I ain't gonna spend resources "for the soul", too thrifty for that.
@shotgunfingers Is the end of the H description missing or is it just that short? anyway, thanks : )
Its that short.Originally Posted by chocolatte
I always get the feeling that Gulenko considers "H" to be an unhealthy state to get away from. I agree with that idea tbh. I have been working for a while on moving from H to C without even being conscious of what I'm doing for example.
He noted it in my report:
Subtype
What can we say about his subtype? - The most probable subtype in DCNH system is the fourth one, i.e. harmonizing (H).
This is evidenced, firstly, by his distantness (thoughtfulness, initial detachment, unwillingness to actively intervene in conflict situations) and, secondly, by the lesser orderliness of everyday life with a greater interest in change, rather than routine (initiality).
Distantness combined with initiality just gives a harmonizing subtype. But it becomes clear from the interview that the respondent has changed significantly over time. He develops the qualities of contactness - more emotionality and sociability, as well as ease going. If these efforts are supported, for example, by friends, family, etc., it is possible over time to move to a creative subtype.
I've been searching for these subtype descriptions for other types, could you share a source if you have it please?
I'll PM you
Do you have the SEI descriptions with subtypes? I don't have G:s book but I know SEI subtypes pretty well from real life. Would be nice to see what he says.
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.

My Pinterest
Dominant Subtype
Mediator — Distributor
Prototype: A convenient mediator helping people negotiate
SEI leads an active lifestyle, although physical activity takes away a lot
of strength. She is fond of nature and willingly takes on interesting
work with enthusiasm, hoping to achieve concrete results with low labor
input. She does not easily give up interests until she is satisfied. She
systematizes her efforts to overcome obstacles.
She desires to make the world better a place, so she thinks that
everything should be in a sensible order, built on the consideration of the
interests of each individual. SEI possesses skills in production,
distribution of goods, and advertisement. She understands people’s real
needs and knows her customers. She is able to become successful in
marketing.
She doesn’t take far-reaching initiatives, pursuing very specific shortrange
goals instead. SEI has a good sense for knowing whom to contact
and getting their business. Being attentive to situations, she may intervene
in other people’s conversations. During illness or bad moods she retreats
and lies down, waiting out the adversity. Setbacks with time tend to
become unworthy of her attention.
SEI passionately defends her ideas and beliefs. She describes events
with detail, color, and artistic, active gestures, thereby reinforcing her
words by telling a story. She never refuses to participate in comical events.
SEI confidently shows her feelings and takes initiative in dealing with the
opposite sex, but she can become pretty jealous of her chosen partner and
does not forgive betrayal. Her benefits or merits are emphasized when
given the appropriate opportunity.
Welcoming to her friends, she loves to have everything beautifully
cooked and served. She takes care of guests with high standards, so she
spends a lot of energy on holidays. Therefore she does this rarely. SEI is
adventurous in matters of comfort and relaxation, including activities
involving travel or sporting events. Trying to raise others’ vitality, she
pretends to resent their passivity and inactivity. If playful hints do not
work, she becomes stern with words in order to get her desired reaction.
SEI often becomes the soul of a small gathering that spends time
together, especially if there are many relatives and friends. She knows
howto cheer people up with humor, innuendos, and sometimes jokes; if
she sees someone starting to get angry, she clarifies what looks like a bad
joke to steer the conversation away from conflict.
Due to her sociability and talkative nature, she has many acquaintances,
but at heart she is happiest amongst close friends. SEI looks everywhere to
find information about recent developments, fashions and hobbies. Where
her emotions are, is where she tries to be.
Creative Subtype
Mediator — Composer
Prototype: Pluralists able to unite opposing parties
This subtype knows a lot about a variety of pleasures. She is able to
enjoy herself without leaving others behind. She is a lively and inquisitive
person who collects a variety of information and shares it willingly with
others. She loves debating with others, animating the conversation, but
handles aggressive people poorly. She can respond to rudeness with equal
rudeness, but then spends a long time away from such stress. She is
attentive to the mannerisms and behaviors of other people, assessing their
talents and abilities as well as their possible use.
SEI tries to avoid superiors, evading tedious business conversations.
Usually, she does not criticize herself, nor does she criticize those around
her. She is able to assert her independence while maintaining good
relationships with everyone. Generally surprised when someone takes
offense at her, she won’t make repeated attempts to get close to such a
person. She never tries to change people since she understands the futility
of such efforts. Rather, she opts to accept people as they are, integrating
different personalities within whatever interesting task she may be part of.
Sometimes overwhelmed by communication, she can become
considerably overexcited. As a result of this, she finds herself relying
on artificial methods of relaxation, such as drinking. She enjoys feasts,
not so much because of the food, but because of the interesting memories
and social conversations involved in such occasions.
SEI is never jealous or mistrustful. Sometimes it’s hard to know when
she is joking or serious. If she is let down, she may do the same in return.
She finds it hard to spend a lot of time at home relaxing, so she may go
hiking or try some bohemian activities. She is attracted to unusual people
with unique hobbies and seeks intellectual or creative parties where she
can talk informally with extraordinary people.
SEI has a pronounced wave-like activity pattern guided by emotional
impulse. She either puts all of her effort into something or sits it out,
excluding herself. Quickly regaining her strength is not easy. Afterwards,
she will wait for a new wave of inspiration, and so on until the next
downturn.
Good composers, SEI is able to combine various materials into a single
comprehensive product: for example, in coordinating the logistics, supply,
packaging and delivery of goods or the provision of complex services. The
same characteristic also applies to her ability to unite diverse people in
any practical activity, from choir singing to tourism trips. She is also
characterized by combining various professional characteristics or places
of work.
Normalizing Subtype
Mediator — Rallying
Prototype: A caring parent, the center of the family’s communication
Wherever she is, she is equally friendly and attentive. She is initially
wary with strangers, keeping a distance until trust is established in the
relationship. SEI avoids cold and arrogant people, preferring to create a
harmonious and relaxed atmosphere. When agitated, her speech often
becomes hurried and vague.
She takes responsibility for whatever she is assigned and easily gets
used to order. She copes well with routine chores when she feels they are
necessary. At times, in order to separate work from personal relationships,
she operates rigorously and strictly. She enjoys artsy things, mostly done
with her own hands. In her territory, she tries to have everything organized
properly. She strives for autonomy and self-sufficiency, only seeking help
in extreme cases.
SEI possesses the gift of calming and soothing those who oppose her.
She knows how to be a patient listener, although ironically, she isn’t for
the depressed or sorrowful. Often acting as a peacemaker, SEI persuades
people to compromise. It is not easy for her to deny requests, so she
behaves cautiously, occasionally alienating people; she is afraid of being
clung to by people who might abuse her caring nature. It is difficult for her
to understand what people expect from her. She tends to negotiate
important issues on an informal basis and won’t air her “dirty laundry” in
public.
She is very affectionate and needs close relationships with people whose
interests and needs fit with her life. She doesn’t quickly bond with new
people, but once she does, she is able to maintain strong relationships. She
greatly values those people who share her outlook on life. She loves it
when the family gets together spontaneously and when there is a common
topic of conversation. She appreciates when the young respect their elders.
SEI knows how to persuade someone into particular affairs, but doesn’t
always know what business is really profitable or promising. Therefore,
she becomes wary of deadlines, which she blames for failures. She hides
offenses, so as not to spoil an established relationship and is good at
understanding the nuances in others’ emotional states.
She comes to the aid of those in need of personal support, making her
well-suited to service and social sectors. She knows how to make
concessions and compromises and wants to make life peaceful and
enjoyable for all those close to her.
Harmonizing Subtype
Mediator — Resolver
Prototype: Aestheticist living by the rule of the golden mean
This is a person who know how to relax and indulge in the range of
sensations, possessing very sensitive tastes. Other people are treated
attentively and thoughtfully, especially her loved ones. This is her
speciality, though she does show obvious displeasure when she lose her
sense of peace. At such moments she can he quite indignant and harsh.
Normally she is always soft and charming in every way, preserving her
peace of mind and harmony with the surrounding world. SEI dislikes
drawing attention to her troubles and failures. When in need of assistance,
she resorts only to those close to her or to knowledgeable experts. By
nature, she is secretive and vulnerable, trying not to burden her friends
because she knows how unpleasant it is. She never demands attention if
she feels it is not warranted. However, she will respond to others’ calls for
help.
She loves nature and beauty in its natural manifestation, having a good
visual memory to paint from, as well as tastes and tactile sensations. SEI
acutely experiences situations minute-by-minute. She expresses her subtle
perception of the world in products made by her own hands. Everything
she does is done by the heart, with taste. She doesn’t dress in flashy attire
and isn’t into trends, preferring only clothes which are hers by style and
taste. She loves a variety of original jewelry and accessories, such as
watches that blend with her clothes. She pays a lot of attention to the
issues of eveiyday life. The best professions for her abilities are in areas
such as painting, decorating, designing, etc.
SEI won’t compete or force others to do anything against their will.
Therefore she is not interested in leadership careers. At times she may
give the impression of a passive or inert person. This is due to the fact that
she sees no point in needless fussing and wasting effort. Thanks to this
trait, she occasionally has a reputation as a talented bum, going through
life contemplatively and endlessly waiting.
Stuck in a rut subtype. Consistent with all 16 of H's. Probably in much higher need for mobilizing than others (as recipient not in terms of producing necessarily).

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
I didn't see anything like what you posted online anywhere!
heh IEIs sound like better duals to me than EIE. At least they won't fuss about spending too much on quality, prefer to fix problems than to flip out and start drama and have that creative Fe I seem to like+Ni which is never boring. Also not Si PolR, which is awesome. With EIEs I always get this sense that I'd have to leash then and keep them in line e_e.. annoying.

::feels activator-y vibes from this:: No homo. Er wait... I mean specifically no homo vibes to you but I mean I liked that.
My experience with most LSIs (well I have more experince with LSI females) is that they will kind of be very distrustful of me at first and be annoyed with me but then grow to really like me- so I think it is like duality in the sense it probably needs to grow over time. The psychology is compatible but it can be awkward knowing how to communicate with each other with the T and F thing.
I like LSI's cognitive empathy advice, because I'm much better at affective empathy & my cognitive empathy tends to be in the toilet. Also Gulekno says that IEI's don't like to pry into other people's thinking processes like that, and it's true to me. I can play Hannibal with people like that but it's weird and awkward for me. I am kind of too selfishly paying attention to my own thinking then really thinking about other people's logic. I'm more like 'ooh I can really feel this person's hate/love/jealousy/sadness/whatever.'
