Jung mentioned descriptions of eight defined types but then also said that a group of individuals defy classification into one of these types. He called them "creative" or "artistic" as they were seen to switch back and forth between types as they combined functions typically unconscious with dominant conscious functions. They may come close to the "transcendent" function described by Jung.
The behavioral hallmark is a rapid switching from what appear to be diametrically opposed functions (ie Ne and Si or Te and Fi) without the extreme negative consequences often seen by shadow/stress induced use of the tert or inf function.....ie the end result appears to be stable, productive and healthy use of tertiary and inferior functions as a natural part of the individuals psyche with near the strength and competence of a dominent or aux user of that function.
Empirically they seem to represent 9% of the population on a sample size of 2 million tests.
Have you guys heard of this before?
