I have several questions, all of which are why? :) I can see what you're doing, but the rationale as it relates to anything outside itself escapes me: what's the context? :huh:
Whatever suggested, if I understood correctly, that I realize the theory. To make it concrete, so that it is useful. This is the context of the posts of today. It was a wise suggestion.

I was thinking it must have been arbitrarily chosen as a median number for the purposes of calulation, so I'm glad I got that right. ;)



Your addition makes it a bit clearer, or at least points me towards what you might be getting at. You're talking about trying to theoretically map functional distribution between each side of the dichotomy, taking into account the usually excluded middle, or something of the kind? (I may not have put that very well, it's late and I'm sleepy :))
It was not arbitrarily chosen. I weighed the pros and cons. The alternatives would have been 4(5 X 5) and 8(9 x 9). We have no other alternatives, we cannot use 6 X 6 or 8 X 8 because as you say we need the medial point, therefore we need an odd number. Otherwise you are perfectly right. :)

Because you were trying NOT to exclude the middle! ;) Yeah, that's what I meant though. I didn't mean absolutely arbitrary, so much that use of the number 6 was not intrinsically meaningful beyond being convenient to build from. :)

Do you think it would help, as far as making this broadly useful to people goes, to characterise the numbers in a more concrete way, with examples of what each represents? :thinking:

Yes, sorry, it occured to me at the moment I posted that it was exactly what you meant.
Forgive me the redundancy. :)

I try to characterize the numbers with examples of what each represents. If and when I am up to the task .. :doh:

thanks! it was actually completely inadvertent. or at least, subconscious. i realized how they fit one day when i went to change my avatar. and then, i could not bring myself to change it.

There is no way you could have done it, skylights. The best is as far as it goes. :)

Sorry, wildcat, I've been busy in some other threads.

I'm gunna go to bed now, but I've subscribed, and I'll come back and check in on this thread later.

I think I got a glimpse of what you were going for earlier, so hopefully I'll be able to understand it more comprehensively the next time.

G'nite. :)

Congrats.
I know you began to understand.
You passed already. :)
Only the grasp is hard.
What comes later is easy.

Dichotomy of Extraversion.
1. Quantification.
A. Activity.

Quantification is about vertical and horizontal straight lines. The vertical straight lines represent activity. Activity is a co-product of the dichotomy of extraversion.
Quantification co-parallels qualification.
Background theory of the quantification process: see posts 18 and 20 in the thread.

1. Quantification.
B. Impulsivity.

Quantification is about vertical and horizontal straight lines. The horizontal lines represent impulsivity. Impulsivity is a co-product of the dichotomy of extraversion.
Quantification co-parallels qualification processes.

So are impulsivity and activity the only two factors of extraversion?

Or are there more?

The straight lines in the dichotomy (guantified numbers) answers to the question: How much.
The qualified property represents a choice.

Of the qualified nine numbers > 6 in the qualification charts (five 7, three 8, one 9, all of them > 6) six belong to the mbti. The non-linear qualified component.

MBTI?
That's so 1952. It's all about CBTI (Coco-Bingo Type Indicator)
I'm a SCLTJWLAYNIEN. Whats yours? ^^
Do not disparage 1952 dear boy!
'Twas the year of the first Summer Olympics after the war.
I was there, every day.
I practically lived at the Stadion.
Auch ich bin in Arkadien gewesen.
It rained of course, cats and dogs.
A great event, all the same.

For frick's sake. Can we get another INTP in here to translate? I can't understand your super computer coding amidst a series of tubes. It's like running ground meat through different meat grinders a few more times.

I've actually been made curious, but make the mind pain stop :cry:

Are you sure impulsivity represents extraversion? This seems more like a judgement that isn't well thought...

Impulsivity is a dichotomy of extraversion.
It does not represent it.

Is the dichotomy of the odd number the dichotomy of the odd number in the loci?
