Socionics Crash Course
Hi everyone
I have been very busy this past year, and have put together a 12-lecture course which should take people all the way from a beginner level of understanding Socionics, to an advanced grasp of the theory and the ability to type others in different situations, and to even quality as an accredited WSS Socionist if that is something you wish to do.
Check out my video explaining more about the various modules .

> advanced grasp of the theory
many Augustinavichiute ideas are doubtful and baseless. some contradict to Jung's types basics and general terms
instead of critical thinking and excluding from usage - people copy them
by some magic such unreasonable approach should lead them to better "abbility to type others"
> accredited WSS Socionist
it's good to get typing match with someone >50% , for the start
the theory is not enough
needs practical test with examples. 10 or more. by video and other of them. better examples of people who don't know types theory, as in other case they'll filter own words to fit some type
My work has been to go through Augusta's work with a fine-toothed comb, straightening out definitions to make sense and work in reality, while filling in any conceptual gaps.Originally Posted by Sol
The course is full of video examples of the types in order to get more practical experience in identifying them.

The most useful Socionics activity on today can be to organise sites and groups/clubs for IRL communications with the aim to help people do pairs with taking into account Jung types. To understand types and IR on examples. To improve something in themselves.
Among problems is typing accuracy which mb ~40%. If you know someone for long and in club exist conditions to show own strong functions - then the accuracy may become higher. Also people could to know better each other there.
To teach the theory books are enough.
Decent part of types theory is basic only. Definition of 8 functions + a variant of extended interpretation, 4 dichotomies, strong and valued functions, IR.
For practice are useful examples and communications.
Also people may do activity and tasks to develop weak regions.
May be done days when everyones does something for concrete function of 4, for one of 8 functions variants. This would help people to understand own types, to compare themselves with otherones in tasks.
Can be done general tasks, where anyone gets a part related to one of functions, despite strong or weak function it's supposed for him.
Socionics is not just Jung types. It's about complementing types, IR, duality for pairs. This may catch the interest to it to most.
It's not perspectively to compete with MBTI where it's known already good - on telling about types, occupations. But it's what you do and seems most in Socionics.
Duality - it's what should be taken as main. To meet people for possible friendship or pairs.
When it's a pair - how to make it good or better, when you've chosen someone with duality (preferably) type. How to establish optimum conditions to get "good" from duality relations in a pair. Technics to join minds in a compassion, for example. To help people to establish deeper love state in a pair.
Also, duality is not only possibility to easier get emotionally good and more stable relations. It's also a way to study from each other where you have weakness - to improve yourself in weak regions, where dual is an expert for this (as has those regions strong). To get wider world perception and do wiser decisions, to arise general efficiency.
This process may help to reduce neurotic traits (Jung supposed types predispose to neuroticism) - to improve feeling of own energy, change own emotions to more positive side, to feel more assured, etc.
Where Jung thought to do this on yourself or with a special therapist. Socionics offers personal expert - your duality pair.
To study types, identify types can be done mostly in parallel to other activity, as side result.
People come to get fun, to solve tasks, social games, mb cooperate for something useful, do different activities related to functions. During this understand what types they have, notice someone for possible pairs. May check databases and to invite someone for club activity.
Those who have chosen pairs (not obligately romance - at least for doing duality tasks, though other sex would be prefered and this may develop) - do something additionally. Those pairs for duality activity may be made with different people in other days. May be offered something to do in other IR - to compare and understand the difference.
There are groups for self-development trainings, for different kinds of entertainment (Jung functions offer 4 kinds at least), meetings to find possible pairs - it's all can be united with Socionics.
For such activity are good people with psychology, teacher, kids camp leader and alike education and practice. People who know how to deal with other people for fun and usefulness. Mb also students of related specialities.
For organisers of this would be good to have duality pairs which helps to lead such club. As an example. And as a help.
It's not in Internet. Living communications. Internet may have secondary part.
MBTI has no such. No one seems has. To mix so much by one theory approach. With the theory which can be explained by psychology.
Your videos have been great

Dual type(as per tcaudilllg)
Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?
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

There is another IEE on other side of la Manche which has Socionics related channel.
If you'll unite then such geo situation may allow to establish world domination.
He also thinks own type as alpha T, so anyway you should notice a higher abbility for cooperations.
You have English language as native and he has Russian language the same. This would allow to produce info for more of people by using both languages / translations.
Similar types and interests may give a useful mix for both.
