So, the only MTBI-specific research I'm aware of is Niednegal's
Brain Types, but I think they are a bit dubious as far as published evidence. Here's a very short summary of Niednegal's claims of type-related strengths:
- SFs: Gross motor skills (that is coordination of large muscle groups)
- SFJs: Control of body movement (practical, step-by-step learning)
- SFPs: Rhythm/graceful flow and quick reactions (holistic sports learning)
- STs: Fine motor skills
- STJs: Dexterity, especially hands/fingers and hand/eye coordination, and defensive strengths
- STPs: Positional awareness, and offensive strengths
- NFs: Oral, verbal and hearing skills
- NFJs: Word/meaning oriented, better at sports where creative calculate pays off (not quick reacting). Give great interviews and commentaries.
- NFPs: Intonation oriented, excel at artistic interpretation (diving, figure skating, etc)
- NTs: <ental/logical abstraction skills
- NTPs: More fine motor skill oriented, with strengths at planning and analysis
- NTJs: More gross motor skills and goal-oriented;more step-by-step, mechanical and controlled than NTPs (although can react very quickly with practice)
This is exactly what I was looking for. +1 I'm going to read that book.
As for me:
SFs: Gross motor skills (that is coordination of large muscle groups)
SFJs: Control of body movement (practical, step-by-step learning)
SFPs: Rhythm/graceful flow and quick reactions (holistic sports learning)
STs: Fine motor skills
STJs: Dexterity, especially hands/fingers and hand/eye coordination, and defensive strengths
STPs:
Positional awareness, and offensive strengths No.
NFs: Oral, verbal and hearing skills
NFJs: Word/meaning oriented, better at sports where creative calculate pays off (not quick reacting).
Give great interviews and commentaries.
NFPs: Intonation oriented, excel at artistic interpretation (diving, figure skating, etc)
NTs: Mental/logical abstraction skills
NTPs: More fine motor skill oriented, with strengths at
planning and analysis
NTJs: More gross motor skills and goal-oriented;more step-by-step, mechanical and controlled than NTPs (although can react very quickly with practice)
Decent at all of these except
these. Very good at hearing skills.
I'm generally terrible at sports, with the exception of badminton (but only singles, doubles never ends well). I like trying to anticipate the strength or direction of my opponent's next move, but at the same time preparing to instantly react to any possibility.
I love badminton. I took a class for an hour credit, and it was a lot of fun. I was actually good at it.
