I haven't said that it is. The hypothesis is that being a "night owl" or being a "morning bird" is related to J/P. And we already know that this "bird" phenomenon is biological in nature. It has been studied by sleep scientists.Originally Posted by niffweed17
If the correlation is correct, it would be a very helpful and strong indication of someone's type.Originally Posted by niffweed17
No, there are only two options: night owl or morning bird. Which you are can be determined in a sleep laboratory if not by other means.Originally Posted by niffweed17
Just as I would expect.Originally Posted by niffweed17
If you have typed him correctly -- both his socionic type and his "sleep group" -- he would be a treat to the validity of the general pattern.Originally Posted by niffweed17
Of course it is not a solid theory. It is not even a theory, it is a hypothesis. Popper would have called the thesis "bold", since it is so easy to falsify, which is exactly what a good scientific hypothesis should be. And we should not try to confirm it, we should try to falsify it. If we don't succeed in falsifying it might become more and more corroborated and eventually be accepted as a member in the group of hypotheses we hold as true based on our current understanding of things.Originally Posted by niffweed17
