It doesn't...
... and she's being pretty grounded and rational in her explanations, at least about this.
She's only explained how to test consistency in results, but has said nothing to show how the test actually relates to real life behavioral tendencies.
As for the test itself, it's two-choice forced selection, which introduces numerous problems on its own. Not to mention the rampant N-bias.
For instance one question said (paraphrased):
"When I'm reading, I like to:
A) Take the author's words at face value, or
B) Read between the lines
and try to figure out the real meaning"
The implication is that the S answer (A) doesn't actually find the real meaning and is therefore somehow inferior to the N answer.
This happens all over the test and leads tons of people mistype themselves as Ns. You don't have to look far on the forum to find Ss who think they're Ns because numerous test questions are worded in a way that's biased toward the N answer.
Now, we could use this testing research to adjust the questions until 50% of people test S and 50% test N, but that doesn't work because we don't know how these statistics correlate to the neurochemistry involved in cognition and so we have no idea if 50% of people should test as Ns in the first place.
Nobody has explained the problem of relating these test questions to real cognitive processes.
