Cognitive Style Diagnostic Methodologies

I had an interesting thought that the process of building and using various diagnostic methodologies in Socionics is related to the four Cognitive Styles (obviously types can use more styles than just their own but they will tend to use their own):


Causal Determinist (ILE, LSI, SEE, EII):
-coming up with clear, unifying, deterministic mechanisms underlying the personal and systematic types: functional positions, elements to fill the positions and all of the mutually consistent dichotomies built up from them
-methodically tracking internal compliance between the disparate positions and elements when diagnosing, categorically rejecting anything inconsistent with the hierarchy


Dialectical Algorithmic (SEI, EIE, ILI, LSE):
-feeling out the contradictions between people and systems and formulating them into various associations of oppositional dichotomies: type dichotomies, functional dichotomies, elemental dichotomies, subtype dichotomies, etc.
-monitoring the behavior, fluctuation, and reliability of these dichotomies to optimally reformulate the associations and to formulate associative predictions for people and systems


Holographic Panoramic (LII, SLE, ESI, IEE):
-congealing global non-overlapping structures that separate the stable communicative locations of different people and systems relative to one another: small groups, contrasting subsystems
-separating out the behavior of a person based on which characteristic small groups or subsystems remain hierarchically stable, and teasing out the different subsystems from the most global factors to the most local


Vortical Synergetic (ESE, IEI, LIE, SLI):
-noticing the emergent, fluctuating aspects of people and systems and trying out a variety of lifelike descriptions and ideas to characterize them: type descriptions, semantic descriptions, sensual patterns, experimental results, etc.
-matching dynamic descriptions onto people and systems by association and trial and error, monitoring the effectiveness and realism of the results

SHS Subtypes Reference 2022

Another more advanced article on subtypes that has been published, not meant as a replacement for this article but which further supplements it:  https://varlawend.blogspot.com/2024/07/advanced-shs-subtype-theory-and-practice.html?m=1 … Previously I wrote an article on Dual Subtypes which spurred a lot of thought, but it is out of date and our conception of Complex Subtypes has grown a lot since then. There is a lot of material about this which is private and even more in-depth than what I will share here, but I want to share the basics so that people can build on it as they please and in a more up-to-date way. ... First, some basic subtype descriptions, just for the sake of reminder: Dominant subtype: Terminating, Contacting, Connecting -Formula: PF(E) -Role: Ambitious Hastening Leader -Temperament: Linear-Assertive The dominant subtype is distinguished by the following behaviors in the group: -set to compete -often recognized by others as a leader -sets clear goals and is well f...

Psychosophy Clubs and Sextas

Four types, combined by common strong and weak functions form a club . Representatives of one club, as a rule, have common interests, a similar life position and often occupation. In communication, we can subconsciously feel the representative of our club, we are drawn to it. In this case, you should pay particular attention to the fact that the club is not a quadra, and if the values ​​of the club partner’s quadra do not match yours (pseudophilia or half-pseudophilia relations), then with prolonged communication or friendships / love relationships there may be serious misunderstanding, for example, in the case of ELFV and LEVF. In any case, the club always has a place for joint activities, especially self-expression of strong functions and their useful and adequate criticism of these actions. EF Club Strong Emotion and Physics, Weak Will and Logic Representatives: Pushkin (EFVL), Bukharin (EFLV), Borgia (FELV), Dumas (FEVL) Motto: "Masters of seduction" The mos...
