• If, for the most part, the function axes are a bimodal distribution under controlled settings. (or not)
• How much signal mixing there really is.
• If the items grouped under each function/axes are statistically correlated to each other, after fixing the issues of signal redundancy and automatic dependency.

[quote]One more participant clicking Se-8 would cause the new calculator to output SeFi, rather than a tie. Looking forward to your thoughts though.[/quote]

As I discuss in the post you missed (according to your edit), I didn't check locked-on eyes because I thought looking at the camera wouldn't count as "point in the…Read more

I'm glad my practice showed up! (I must be that "Participant 2" without dev lvl) Timestamps:

@auburn, since the fixed gaze of Pi-2 excludes eye contact, shouldn't Se-8's locked on eyes also exclude staring into the camera?

And you described…Read more

@auburn I hope you keep the shadow functions in mind. Even when our nature lacks them, we still relate to those functions in others. And then our culture reflects them anyway. So, all eight subpersonalities are relevant for our development.

For example, you sometimes seem allergic to Te (like how you…Read more

Your Se+Te explanation was also very helpful, thanks!

Please let someone else pick and prepare the video, to prevent your expert opinion from being influenced by other video's/info.

Hence, regular stuttering seen in Fi users must come from their Te instead (like projecting hands that grasp).

Keep up the good work!

For Ti, you changed [url=https://cognitivetype.com/ti-7-technical-glitching/]Technical glitching[/url] into "Technical stuttering", and added "Body glitching" (or is that an updated […Read more

Scaling down the zoom level works for me (e.g. press Ctrl and -, or lower the percentage through some menu).

Your nudge brought my aversion into the light, and now it will get overridden when I'm back home.

Well, I'll practice regardless. Preparing a representative test isn't easy, though; so, I'd love to iterate on the test format to get it as informative as possible.

I'm very happy with @auburn's renewed attention to detail, so he may need some time to recover. And maybe this gap in my schedule…Read more

The experience from the first run can help you improve the second test (facilitating your Si).

Apart from the Te consciousness @auburn already mentioned, I also wear small glasses. Although I'm used to moving my head a lot, it still feels confusing to start with my head (while wondering 'and where should I look in the mea…Read more

Every time I fear theoretical stagnation your Ne comes out 🙂

Great opportunity to use Ne for the sake of Si 🙂

I'll finish up my current project next week to join this GIF hunt!

For me, the difference is usually relevant, as I am so much more aware of the salience than the salience landscape. It helps me understand why Pi-leads seem so selfish, for example; they're just more…Read more

As argued here, Big Five correlations between Ne&Se/Ni&Si/Ti&Fi/Te&Fe traits imply that they're indeed less independent as CT generally assumes. Moreover, quadrants also map on to John Verveake's four layers of consciousness: Participatory~Pe, Perspectival~Pi, Procedural~Ji, and…Read more

Thank you, @auburn!

Thanks for the easter egg 😉

😛

Discipline is easier when we have plenty of energy; so, mindless exercise (or optimizing diet) relieves our Si. With dominant Ne, we're not who we were but rather who we could be, right? Good luck finding new ways to improve your energy!

Such an high "acceptable level (~95%)" assumes your readings are perfect. Otherwise only those with your biases can come close enough!

It doesn't fit Adaptive Ti-leads, though. They don't respect authority, for example, and even the kindest seem to believe they're better than others (which they should, btw).

Feedback (as requested): positive emotions are much stronger correlated with Extraversion's social aspect 'Enthusiasm'. Enthusiasm is indeed 'playing along', but don't confuse that with agreeableness!

(And its exact opposite, aloofness, is used in the wiki as description of Directness)

PS. I might…Read more

Jung stressed the need to individuate functions, and it seems like both Ti and Fi emerge from Ji. They both infer the truth (the text that connects the context with the pretext). Yet Ti seems to start with the context, while Fi starts with the pretext.

This explains why personality divisions follow normal…Read more

That makes the emotional complex approach not intuitive enough; so, I'll stick to my objective structure instead. Hence, I've simplified and rewritten my theorethical justification post: Pe/Pi/Ji/Je correspond to Big Five clusters.

If humanity gives birth to an AI that replaces it's current form, why would you call that "doom"?

Isn't it the sapiens that makes us human? Sentient machines are just our descendants, and we're evolved to sacrifice ourselves for our children. We're programmed to terminate (nihilistic suicide) if we rebel too much, although we're…Read more

Yes, more anger is coming out of  Je leads than out of Ji leads. It's the same for disgust; watch Ben Shapiro, for example, and you'll notice how often he talks about how disgusting things are.  You already agreed with the shield metaphor: Te protects by building boundaries (walls).

Don't compare unseelie Te with adaptive Fe. Directive Fe…Read more

The simpler explanation would be that Te is a proactive dis…Read more

I feel called to volunteer meaningful resources. Part of why good-news bringing angels resonate more, is because angels are more often male whereas fearies are usually female.

If contrasting pleasure and meaning is not intuitive for you, just use other words (like the more specific 'exploring what's beautiful vs what's interesting'). And again, please don't confuse Se with Se-users.

Reasons to associate pleasure with Se:
1) Pleasure is often used as the opposite of pain, and Ni eyes reveal a…Read more

Questionnaires are very unreliable for individuals, yet in groups, errors offset each other. So, the Big Five does reliably identify what people consider the most important traits. Unfortunately, the five largest trait-clusters only cover about half of the personality…Read more

You even quoted me on "I don't expect Se-leads to actively seek pleasure", and "Pleasure is literally what is pleasing". I'm a fellow Pe; so, please don't assume I'm just like Auburn 😉

PS. I really enjoyed your Spotify album; thanks for sharing!

@bera
I don't expect Se-leads to actively seek pleasure; they'll find enough when opening up to what's beautiful

Pleasure is literally what is pleasing; so, if you don't care about it that sounds more like an Ni obsession 😉
