I listened to a podcast featuring two young ladies who were talking about sports. One was SEI-Si, the other was SEI-Fe. They were friends, very close in age and upbringing and it was a decent opportunity to read the difference between how these two subtypes communicate.
The Si-subtype was focused on information. Whether it was through her familiar more Si usage or her unconscious Ne fascination, her focus and her delight was on information
The Fe subtype was focused on analysis. It wasn't the data itself but breaking down the data and, perhaps, being decisive (in a way) regarding it. Whether using her Fe emotionality to clarify her point or her unconscious Ti function to truly understand, her focus was on the decisive step of analysis.
Obviously, these two SEIs are irrationally dominant but it was interesting to read how subtype (whether rational or irrational) can influence the psych of identical types.
Rational & irrational are rather apt words. Has anyone else here had an opportunity to observe different subtypes of an identical type communicate? And, if so, what is your opinion about it?
