By using wave-mechanics to "split" the functions into their component aspects. We end up with a table of sixteen attributes. Aspects of the psyche are determined by the negative or positive value of these attributes.

Attribute + -
X1 Intuition Sensing
X2 Logic Ethics
X3 Statics Dynamics
X4 Extroversion Introversion
X5 = X1*X2 Democracy Aristocracy
X6 = X1*X3 Judiciousness Resoluteness
X7 = X2*X3 Cheerfulness Gravity
X-7 = X1*X4 Carelessness Foresight
X-6 = X2*X4 Compliance Obstinacy
X-5 = X3*X4 Irationality Rationality
X-4 = X1*X2*X3 taciturn narrative
X-3 = X1*X2*X4 Positivism Negativism
X-2 = X1*X3*X4 Tactics Strategy
X-1 = X2*X3*X4 Constructibility emotivnost
X0 = X1*X2*X3*X4 Process (the right ring) Result (the left ring)


Notice there are sixteen attributes in the same way that there are sixteen personality types. Between attributes there are the same fifteen styles of communication as exhist between personalities in the socion. Some pairs conflict, energy transmission between them is difficult to impossible, and both attributes will suffer. Some pairs lie in duality and will support and increase the strengths of eachother. For still others there is illusion or instruction, one attribute increases at the expense of the other.

By using wave mechanics again these sixteen attributes can be converted to whatever type scale you apply. Since attributes exhist dynamically to eachother personality type shifts to fit the situation. That's where we get sub-types and type masks.

There is no such thing as absolute type because as we go through life and face different situations our jungian functions drift in strength producing sub-types. On a moment to moment basis we must interract with different parts of our enviornment or society and take on masks to facilitate communication. or to protect ourselves. Taking on a mask requies alot of energy to maintain, just how much depends on how far the mask is from your natural personality. Once the moment is over the psyche removes the mask, going back to the type-subtype that is natural.

As in physics there is relativity in personality. A disordered personality to one person is ordered to another.

This links to a translation of a book in Russian by Eugeny Efremov. In it he lays out the quantam-mechanics of the personality. For those who are interrested in the structure and inner workings of the psyche it's a must read.

The web-translation isn't the best, but I'm working on a better one and will post it if anyone wants...

What really grabbed me was the way that quantam mechanics, the psyche, and society all are structured in the same way.
