neither do i - here's my trick:
i read the functions as follows:
TiFe: reflects upon information to explore the outside.
FiTe: super imposes information to express the inside.
SiNe: connects incoming information in one's collection.
NiSe: connecting incoming information within it's flow.
this allows me to split each function in two ways:
temperamental:
T: resolving stress from cognitive dissonance in general.
F: resolving stress from emotional dissonance in particular.
S: reacts to the existing details of the experienced objects.
N: reacts to the relationships between the experienced objects.
cognitive:
Je manifests as an information mapping mechanism, stressed by chaotic stimuli.
Ji manifests as an information navigating mechanism, seeking maximum stimuli.
Pe manifests as information threading, providing the most stimulating images.
Pi manifests as information framing, providing the most cohesive images.
which stems from this:
E functions are processed faster then the rate at which we consciously experience them.
-> demanding that we'll catch up & compensate for the missing nuances by bouncing it off others.
I functions are processed slower then the rate at which we consciously experience them.
-> demanding that we'll wait for the information to unfold and give it the mental space to do so.
this way, i can say that:
someone is "very E" = always running to catch up with the latest processed info.
someone is "very N" = pays a lot of attention to the relationships between objects.
someone is "very T" = very stressed by cognitive dissonance in general.
someone is "very P" = very oriented towards seeking the maximum stimulation.
and still do it in my comfort zone (breaking information down).
This is an interesting way to think about it. Going by that, I'm a strong Ti/Fe and Si/Ne user and dominant Pi.
I'm not quite clear on NiSe- connecting information within its flow. Do you have an example? Maybe I'm not clear on it because I don't 'use' that pattern of processing.
