Subtypes || 16 cognitive functions || 488 personality types || Fixation and emphasis (OLD AND OUTDATED)

UPDATE 2021-10-08: THE  POSTS ON THIS BLOG ARE SHIT. THEY WERE WRITTEN ONLY MONTHS AFTER I DISCOVERED TYPOLOGY  AND I DON'T AGREE WITH AT LEAST HALF OF THE STUFF HERE ANYMORE. I DO NOT REGRET MAKING THESE POSTS BECAUSE WRITING IS A LEARNING EXERCISE FOR ME BUT YOU HAVE TO KEEP IN MIND THAT THEY ARE OLD AND OUTDATED.  READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND USE CRITICAL THINKING. 

NOTE: I am free to criticism. This post will change over the course of time. If you have any suggestions for improvements, leave a comment or PM me.

Based on the ideas of DCHH subtype theory, and the theory of adding a third letter to the cognitive functions, I present to you the full subtype theory.

A brief introduction to the DCHH subtype system:

Firstly, some rules.

1.       Your subtype can change over the course of your life, but that doesn’t happen over life. For it to change something major in your life needs to happen such as death of a relative, divorce, mental illness, moving out of parents’ house, graduation, marriage, DMT/LSD trip, etc. Some people can have only one subtype for all of their lives without change while some can change it up to 6-7-8 times. Most people change it 2-3 times (on average).

2.       Your subtype is a product of your environment. We would define environment here as a combination of all your friends, family, work/classmates and acquaintances (the people in your life); also your country/society you live in, your home conditions, stress, salary, basically any external force. 

The main concepts on which the whole subtype system is based upon are FIXATION and EMPHASIS.

FIXATIONS:

We could define fixation as a form of crystallization or obsession. The fixation is the root cause of the subtype. A very good way to describe fixations, in my opinion, is exactly like a moldable clay. Clay. Yes, [clay]( https://www.google.ro/search?q=clay&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjMyN2935_UAhXGVxoKHX9oBZQQ_AUICigB&biw=1280&bih=894#imgrc=TEpf0Xs2WmUzyM:) . Imagine the fixation as a flexible mold filled with clay that changes it's own shape to what's appropriate for the situation. However the function also has a degree of plasticity so the more it's made to assume one particular shape the easier it will be to do it in the future but the harder it will be to form different shapes, kind of “crystalizing” itself into one particular shape. The longer you leave it without a change, the more it will be rock solid and rigid. The more you move it however, the more flexible it will be. So basically the function crystallizes in a narrow specific "shape" if it's only used in a specific way. This is thought to be the source of most mental obsessions, personality disorders and personal eccentricities. It's basically a hyper-one-sidenes. On the other hand the more specialized the function becomes the better it performs in the specific area of its fixation. It's a trade-off between flexibility and precision. Because of the rigidness you put on the fixated function, the user tends to develop strong opinionated ideas about how it SHOULD be used, thus, being very inflexible to new ways of using it.

Now, one of the most basic concepts of cognitive function theory (MBTI, Socionics, etc.) is the canceling of opposite function, one always taking over the other, battling for control over the same spot in your stack. Your stack of functions has a Ji spot (Ti and Fi), a Pi spot (Ni and Si), a Je spot (Te and Fe), and a Pe spot (Ne and Se). Most of the time, that slot will be occupied by the function in your main stack, rarely one of your shadow functions taking over it. So for example, an ESTJ will almost always have his Pi spot filled by Si, very rarely Ni taking over it. Some people argue that it’s not a black and white relationship between these opposite functions, that you can reach a balance (for example 72%Si with 28% Ni, or 50/50, 60/40, etc.) or that you can switch between the two very fast. Whatever may be true, it won’t change the subtype theory.

That being said, the same relationship holds true for fixations. A Ti fixation is mirrored by a Fi fixation (for example). This makes sense and the two fixations block each other preventing the person from expressing their one-sideness in a two obvious manner. Over time however, if the fixation deepens one side tends to triumph over the other producing eight subtypes, one for each function. Remember that if, for example, you have a Ti fixation that doesn’t mean that you will use Ti more or rely on it more. What it actually means is that your use of Ti is very rigid and you have very strong beliefs about how it should be used.

Now, the 8 subtypes are not the end to all. What can (sometimes) happen is going one more layer deep. We know that the functions work in one of the two pairs, either Ji-Pe/Pe-Ji or Pi-Je/Je-Pi. Because of that, the user might develop a second fixation on the function it works with, for example someone fixated on Te might develop a second fixation on either Ni or Si (the function it can work and interact with most freely). That being said someone could have a Te-Si fixation, which is the first two functions of the ESTJ type, as a result, that person will have an ESTJ subtype.

Now we can recognize 16 subtypes for each of the 16 types. 16x16=256 subtypes. You can have an INFP with an ESTJ subtype, an INFP with an INFP subtype or an INFP with an ENTP subtype. You can also have an ENTJ with an INTP subtype, an ENTJ with an ENFP subtype, etc. Creating overall 256 individual types one can possibly be. 

Again, remember that if you have an ESTJ subtype, Te and Si aren’t the functions you use the most, they’re the ones you’re most rigid and inflexible about, they’re the “crystalized” one, your OBSESSIONS.

;

Another very important concept in the subtype system is the EMPHASIS. While the fixations are the root cause of your subtype, the emphasis is the end result of it. Contrary to the fixations which are just some crystalized obsessions of the user, the functions that are emphasized are the ones you USE THE MOST. Emphasized functions are the ones we choose to use more often. It is not necessarily that we have strong ideas about how or why they should be used, the way we do with our fixations, but rather that using them is the most effective means to an end. To reiterate, you might think of our emphasized functions as the means and the fixated function attitudes as the end.

While the fixations are developed on individual functions (Ti, Fe, Ni, etc.), the emphasized functions are developed on the roles the functions in your stack have (dominant, inferior, etc.).

The emphasized functions also go in groups, 4 of the subtypes will emphasize on the functions, thus creating 4 groups of subtypes. Those 4 groups were first believed to be the 4 main subtypes, but I prefer to think of them as a categorization of the subtypes.

;

Dominant subtypes look for problems or opportunities in the outside world and seek to act in a way that allows them to realize their goals. You can think of them as imposing their will on the world.

Dominant subtypes are the group which has the primary fixation either Fe and Te. This is why they roughly correspond to ExxJs, the types who have those as their dominant functions. Dominant subtypes have very clear and individualistic methods of using Fe and Te - strong ideas about their purpose and value. All introverted Dominant types will have particular, rigid Te or Fe but use them both in a fairly normal distribution for their type. Additionally, all Dominants will seem more extraverted than others of their type.

Because they want to impose their will on the world, Dominant subtypes emphasize on their dominant and demonstrative functions, the strongest and most ego-aligned functions.

Example: A dominant INTP will be fixated on either Fe (if ExFJ subtype) or Te (if ExTJ subtype) while using Ti and Ni a lot more.

;

Normalizing subtypes look for rules and expectations in the outside world and seek to adjust themselves to match these expectations. You can think of them as adapting themselves to the world's rules.

Normalizing subtypes are the group which has the primary fixation either Fi or Ti. This is why they roughly correspond to IxxPs, the types who have those as their dominant functions. Normalizing subtypes have very clear and individualistic methods of using Fi and Ti - strong ideas about their purpose and value. All extraverted Normalizing types will have particular, rigid Fi or Ti but use them both in a fairly normal distribution for their type. Additionally, all Normalizers will seem more introverted than others of their type.

Because seek to analyze and adapt themselves to the world, Normalizing subtypes emphasize on their tertiary and role functions, which are their most receptive and context-dependent functions.

Example: A normalizing ISFJ will have very strong ideas about how either Ti or Fi should be used but will depend a lot on using its tertiary Ti and role Ni.

;

Creative subtypes seek independence and freedom in expression and creation. You can think of them as striving for individualism and uniqueness.

Creative subtypes are the group of subtypes fixated either on Ne or Se. This is why they roughly correspond to ExxPs, the types who have those as their dominant functions. Creative subtypes have very clear and individualistic methods of using Ne and Se - strong ideas about their purpose and value. All extraverted Creative types will have particular, rigid Ne and Se but use them both in a fairly normal distribution for their type. Additionally, all Creatives will seem more extraverted than others of their type.

Because they seek to express themselves the most freely (most individualistic), Creative subtypes emphasize with their auxiliary and inferior functions, their most flexible and original functions.

Example: A creative ESTJ will have very strong ideas about how either Ne or Se should be used, but will show high use of its auxiliary Si and inferior Fi.

;

Harmonizing subtypes seek connection and transcendence of the individual limitations. You can think of them as striving for collectivism and harmony.

Harmonizing subtypes are the group of subtypes fixated either on Ni or Si. This is why they roughly correspond to IxxJs, the types who have those as their dominant functions. Harmonizing subtypes have very clear and individualistic methods of using Ni and Si - strong ideas about their purpose and value. All introverted Harmonizing types will have particular, rigid Ni and Si but use them both in a fairly normal distribution for their type. Additionally, all Harmonizers will seem more introverted than others of their type.

Because Harmonizing subtypes seek to connect with others and transcend their individual limitations (most universal/collective); they emphasize with their ignoring and vulnerable functions, their most 'unspoiled' (unmanipulated/unconscious) and ego-detached functions.

;

DIFFERENT FIXATIONS FROM THE SAME SUBTYPE GROUP ALSO EMPHASIZE DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS

The subtypes which are fixate on involved functions (S or F) are called "primary subtypes" while the subtypes which fixate on abstract/detached functions (N or T) are called "secondary subtypes".

Read about the abstract/involved function dichotomy here: http://wholesocionics.herokuapp.com/articles/1-Information-Agendas

That said, Si fixation subtype can be called primary harmonizing (because Si is involved along with Se, Fi, Fe) while Ni fixation subtype can be called secondary harmonizing (because Ni is abstract along with Ne, Ti, Te)

PRIMARY SUBTYPES EMPHASIZE THE FIRST FUNCTION IN THE STACK OUT OF THE TWO WHILE SECONDARY SUBTYPES EMPHASIZE THE LAST ONE.

BUT here we don't use the Beebe model that most people are used to (1st = dominant, 2nd = aux, 3rd = tert, 4th = inferior, 5th = ignoring, 6th = demonstrative, 7th = PoLR, 8th = role) to measure the emphasis. Here we use MODEL G. There the order is: 1st = dominant, 2nd = demonstrative, 3rd = role, 4th = tertiary, 5th = auxiliary, 6th = inferior, 7th = PoLR, 8th = ignoring.

Read more about Model G  here: http://bit.ly/2fHVurE

NOTE: That doesn't change anything about what function goes into what position. For example with an INTP, it's demonstrative Ni would do the same thing, the difference is that it's just put in another place on a piece of paper, that's all. Whether you call it the second or the sixth function, it still does the same thing. What is important is the meaning behind words, not the words themselves which are just a way of communicating ;)

So if it's a primary subtype (S/F), you look at the function closer to 1 out of the two given for the subtype. If it's a secondary subtype (N/T) you look at the other function. So for example creative subtype emphasizes auxiliary and inferior functions. Because Se is involved and Ne is abstract/detached then Se fixation subtype is also called "primary creative" and Ne fixation is "secondary creative". Then for the primary subtype, out of auxiliary and inferior you look at which one is closer to the beginning of the row (in Model G). Auxiliary is in the 5th position while inferior is in the 6th position therefore Se fixation subtype (involved: ->primary creative) means emphasis on the auxiliary while Ne fixation subtype (abstract: ->secondary creative) means emphasis on the inferior.

So a Se fixation/crystallization would use its auxiliary more while a Ne fixation/crystallization would use its inferior more.

That said:

Fe fixation subtype (Primary dominant) emphasizes the dominant function

Te fixation subtype (Secondary dominant) emphasizes the demonstrative

Se fixation subtype (Primary creative) emphasizes auxiliary

Ne fixation subtype (Secondary creative) emphasizes inferior

Fi fixation subtype (Primary normalizing) emphasizes role

Ti fixation subtype (Secondary normalizing) emphasizes tertiary

Si fixation subtype (Primary harmonizing) emphasizes PoLR

Ni fixation subtype (Secondary harmonizing) emphasizes ignoring

;

RECAPITULATION OF HOW MANY TYPES AND SUBTYPES ARE THERE

There are 4 "main" subtypes, or subtype groups for each type (dominant, creative, harmonizing, normalizing). So 16x4=64. But then for each "main subtype/subtype group" you have 7 "individual/actual subtypes" some sort of "sub subtypes". 7x4x16=448. You can also have no subtype (no fixation/crystallization) => 448+16=464 personality types.

So let's say we have an ISFJ.

That ISFJ can firstly be dominant, creative, harmonizing or normalizing. (4 types of ISFJ at the moment).

Then let's say the ISFJ is dominant. He/she can have a Te fixation (ExTJ subtype) or a Fe fixation (ExFJ subtype) or a balanced Te/Fe fixation (pure ExxJ/pure dominant). Then it can also develop a TeSi fixation/ESTJ subtype (surpressing both Fe and Ni), TeNi fixation/ENTJ, FeSi fixation/ESFJ and FeNi fixation/ENFJ.

So there are 7 kinds of dominant ISFJ:

Pure dominant (ExxJ) (Te/Fe fixation balanced);

Secondary dominant (ExTJ) (Te fix suppressing Fe with Si/Ni balanced);

Primary dominant (ExFJ) (Fe fix suppressing Te with Si/Ni balanced);

Secondary process dominant (ESTJ) (Te fix with Si fix that surpress both Fe and Ni)

Secondary results dominant (ENTJ) (Te fix with Ni fix that repress both Fe and Si)

Primary results dominant (ESFJ) (Fe fix with Si fix that repress both Te and Ni)

Primary process dominant (ENFJ) (Fe fix with Ni fix that repress both Te and Si)

NOTE (read if you don't know what process/results means, if you do then skip): (the results/process thing is because each of the types representing the subtypes are either process or results in the reinin dichotomies. It’s the dichotomy splitting the 16 types into 2 groups of 8, like introversion/extraversion or others. For example the ISFJ with a Te fixation and a Ni fixation (repressing Fe and Si fixations) can be called an ISFJ with an ENTJ subtype, and the ENTJ is a results type. So you can distinguish the ESTJ subtype from the ENTJ subtype as secondary dominant results (ENTJ, bcuz ENTJ is results) and secondary dominant process (ESTJ, bcuz ESTJ is process). Read more about the process/results dichotomy here: https://www.reddit.com/r/JungianTypology/comments/5wdola/summary_of_the_processresult_dichotomy/?st=j3ijpc8t&sh=25a0f467 and here: http://www.wikisocion.net/en/index.php?title=Process_and_result )

So dominant ISFJ can be of 7 kinds. But you also have 3 other subtype groups: creative, harmonizing and normalizing so there are 7 kinds of ISFJ for each subtype group. 4 subtype groups x 7 individual subtypes each = 28 kinds of ISFJ. But an ISFJ also can have no subtype (no fixation) so there are 29 kinds of ISFJ.

But wait, ISFJ is not the only main personality type. There are 16 personality types, so 29 x 16 = 464 individual types you can be.

THE THIRD ORIENTATION OF A FUNCTION

Thanks to /u/NeutralizeCommand , we could realize a third orientation a cognitive function can take. First, let’s make a quick recapitulation of what the orientations are: introverted and extroverted.

As Jung said “The general-attitude types, as I have pointed out more than once, are differentiated by their particular attitude to the object. The introvert's attitude to the object is an abstracting one; at bottom, he is always facing the problem of how libido can be withdrawn from the object, as though an attempted ascendancy on. the part of the object had to be continually frustrated. The extravert, on the contrary, maintains a positive relation to the object. To such an extent does he affirm its importance that his subjective attitude is continually being orientated by, and related to the object. An fond, the object can never have sufficient value; for him, therefore, its importance must always be paramount.” – Psychological Types by Carl Jung, 1921.

What that means is that the main difference between an introverted and an extroverted function is the relation between the subject (me, myself, the user, internal world, subjective opinion) and the object (everyone else, objects and human beings, external forces, external world, objective opinion).

That being said, introverted functions focus on how the object affects the subject while the extroverted functions focus on how the subject affects the object. The simplest example we can give is the difference between Fi and Fe. Fi is focusing about how the external world affects the user emotionally while Fe affects on how the user can affect others emotionally. Of course, the relationship between the subject and object can be extremely complicated in both situations, but this is the most simplified version of it. After all, Carl G. Jung wrote a whole book on it (Psychological Types). Only a little part of the book was focused on the cognitive functions, almost all the book was about the differences between the introvert and the extrovert.

;

Now, due to fixations, what can happen is a third reaction of the subject and object happening, taking “another turn” around. That would leave to a function in your stack having a third orientation, thus, leaving to 16 cognitive functions: TiE, TiI, FiE, FiI, TeE, TeI, FeE, FeI, NiE, NiI, SiE, SiI, NeE, NeI, SeE and SeI.

An introverted function with a second extroverted orientation (XiE), after it will focus on how the object affects the subject, it will turn it around, imposing its subjectivity into the object.

An extroverted function with a second introverted orientation (XeI), after it will focus on how the subject affects the object, it will turn it around, questioning the objectivity of the world, adding its subjective flavor.

An introverted function with a second introverted orientation (XiI), after it will focus on how the object affects the subject, it will add another layer of it, resulting in more depth.

An extroverted function with a second extroverted orientation (XeE), after it will focus on how the subject affects the object, it will add another layer of it, resulting in a deep merging onto the object, as making sure it is kept that way, noticing the changes of the object and adding productivity.

Now, you may, ask, how does all of this relate to the 16 subtypes we discussed before? Let me tell you.

Dominant subtypes will add an opposing attitude to the normal attitude of the judging function the fixation corresponds to. If you have a Te fixation, the thinking functions in your stack will be TiE and TeI. If you have a Fe fixation, the feeling functions in your stack will be FiE and FeI. For example, the stack of the Te (ExTJ) INTP will be: TiE-Ne-Si-Fe-TeI-Ni-Se-Fi. When you go one layer deeper, the Px fixation will have an opposing attitude, so, for example, the stack of a Te-Si (ESTJ) INTP will be: TiE-Ne-SiE-Fe-TeI-Ni-SeI-Fi. (only Si and Se were changed because the second fixation was Si. If the fixation was Ni then Si and Se would remain untouched, Ni would become NiE and Ne would become NeI).

Normalizing subtypes will add a corresponding attitude to the normal attitude of the judging function the fixation corresponds to. If you have a Ti fixation, the thinking functions in your stack will be TiI and TeE. If you have a Fi fixation, the feeling functions in your stack will be FiI and FeE. For example, the stack of the Ti (IxTP) ISFJ will be: Si-Fe-TiI-Ne-Se-Fi-TeE-Ni. When you go one layer deeper, the Px fixations will have a corresponding attitude, so, for example, the stack of a Ti-Ne (INTP) ISFJ will be: Si-Fe-TiI-NeE-Se-Fi-TeE-NiI. (only Ne and Ni were changed because the second fixation was Ne. If the fixation was Se then Ne and Ni would remain untouched, Se would become SeE and Ne would become NeE).

Creative subtypes will add an opposing attitude to the normal attitude of the perceiving function the fixation corresponds to. If you have a Ne fixation, the intuitive functions in you stack will be NeI and NiE. If you have a Se fixation, the sensing functions in your stack will be SeI and SiE. For example, the stack of a Ne (ENxP) INTJ will be: NiE-Te-Fi-Se-NeI-Ti-Fe-Se. When you go one layer deeper, the Jx fixations will have a corresponding attitude, so, for example, the stack of a Ne-Fi (ENFP) INTJ will be: NiE-Te-FiI-Se-NeI-Ti-FeE-Se. (only Fi and Fe were changed because the second fixation was Fi. If the fixation was Ti then Fi and Fe would remain untouched, Ti would become TiI and Te would become TeE)

Harmonizing subtypes will add a corresponding attitude to the normal attitude of the perceiving function the fixation corresponds to. If you have a Si fixation, the sensing functions in your stack will be SiI and SeE. If you have a Ni fixation, the intuitive functions in your stack will be NiI and NeE. For example, the stack of a Si (ISxJ) ENFJ will be: Fe-Ni-SeE-Ti-Fi-Ne-SiI-Te. When you go one layer deeper, the Jx fixations will have an opposing attitude, so, for example, the stack of a Si-Te (ISTJ) ENFJ will be: Fe-Ni-SeE-TiE-Fi-Ne-SiI-TeI. (only Ti and Te were changed because the second fixation was Te. If the fixation was fE then Ti and Te would remain untouched, Fe would become FeI and Fi would become FiE).

As you have seen, extroverted subtypes (dominant/ExxJ and creative/ExxP) add an extra attitude that is opposing to the normal attitude of the function. (at first layer fixation, not the 2^nd one) That is because extroverted subtypes put a bigger accent on influencing and manipulating their environment, as a result, leading into a more rebellious and independent behavior. When you add an opposing extra attitude to the normal attitude of the function, the function is more likely to challenge your thinking, resulting in an individualized way of cognition.

Introverted subtypes (harmonizing/IxxJ and normalizing/IxxP) add an extra attitude that is corresponding to the normal attitude of the function. (at first layer, not the 2^nd one) That is because introverted subtypes put a bigger accent on peace, understanding (between people) and lack/avoidance of conflict. When you add a corresponding extra attitude to the normal attitude of a function, it tends to focus on the productive and mastery of the function, resulting in a big accent on the actual function, without making “turns back” to the subject (if it’s extroverted) or the object (if it’s introverted), thus, having mastery on the function.

That said, I want to make clear that the introverted subtypes aren’t some losers that blindly follow authority like sheep. I want to make this clear because some people might be attracted to the challenging behavior of the extroverted subtypes. Introverted subtypes can think for themselves too, and they actually do, but, instead of rebelling to authority “in your face” like extroverted subtypes, they will find a smart way to not obey the authority, causing the least conflict and chaos.

SOME SUBTYPES MAKE YOU MORE EXTRAVERTED WHILE SOME MAKE YOU MORE INTROVERTED

A big misconception in the DCNH subtype system is that people having introverted subtypes (normalizing, harmonizing) are more introverted than other people of their type while people having extraverted subtypes (creative, dominant) are more extraverted than other people of their type. For example, they say that a creative ISFJ is more ambiverted while a normalizing ISFJ is very introverted. In reality this isn't true, and here's why: The 16 cognitive functions stack:

EP types with an EP (Creative) subtype will be the most introverted compared to other people of the same type because they would lead with a PeI function.

EP types with an IJ (harmonizing) subtype will be the most extraverted compared to other people of the same type because they would lead with a PeE function.

EP types with an IP (normalizing) subtype will be somewhat equally extraverted compared to other people of the same type (developed subtype would lead with a PeE function which would make them more extraverted while less developed will lead with simple Pe and but have JiI auxiliary which makes them slightly more introverted)

EP types with an EJ (dominant) subtype will be somewhat equally extraverted compared to other people of the same type (developed subtype would lead with a PeI function which would make them more introverted while less developed will lead with simple Pe and but have JiE auxiliary which makes them slightly more extraverted)

Example: A creative ENFP will be very introverted compared to other ENFPs while a harmonizing ENFP will be very extraverted compared to other ENFPs. Dominant and normalizing ENFPs will be somewhat equally extraverted compared to other ENFPs. The key here is to look at the cognitive functions: Is the ENFP leading with Ne, NeE or NeI? What about the auxiliary, do they have Fi, FiE or FeI?

IJ types with an EP (creative) subtype will be the most extraverted compared to other people of the same type because they would lead with a PiE function.

IJ types with an IJ (harmonizing) subtype will be the most introverted compared to other people of the same type because they would lead with a PiI function.

IJ types with an IP (normalizing) subtype will be somewhat equally introverted compared to other people of the same type (developed subtype would lead with a PiI function which would make them more introverted while less developed will lead with simple Pi and but have JeE auxiliary which makes them slightly more extraverted)

IJ types with an EJ (dominant) subtype will be somewhat equally introverted compared to other people of the same type (developed subtype would lead with a PiE function which would make them more extraverted while less developed will lead with simple Pi and but have JeI auxiliary which makes them slightly more introverted)

IP types with an EP (creative) subtype will be somewhat equally introverted compared to other people of the same type (developed subtype would lead with JiI function which would make them more introverted while less developed will lead with simple Ji and have auxiliary PeI which would make them almost equally introverted as other of the same type (just a very little more introverted actually))

IP types with an IJ (harmonizing) subtype will be somewhat equally introverted compared to other people of the same type (developed subtype would lead with JiE function which would make them more extraverted while less developed will lead with simple Ji and have auxiliary PeE which would make them almost equally introverted as other of the same type (just a very little more extraverted actually))

IP types with an IP (normalizing) subtype will be the most introverted compared with other people of the same type because they will lead with a JiI function

IP types with an EJ (dominant) subtype will be the most extraverted comapred with other people of the same type because they will lead with a JiE function

EJ types with an EP (creative) subtype will be somewhat equally extraverted compared to other people of the same type (developed subtype will lead with a JeE function which would make them more extraverted while less developed will lead with simple Je and have auxiliary PeI which would make them almost as equally extraverted as other people of the same type (just a little more introverted actually))

EJ types with an IJ (harmonizing) subtype will be somewhat equally extraverted compared to other people of the same type (developed subtype would lead with JeI function which would make them more introverted while less developed will lead with simple Je and have auxiliary PeE which would make them almost as equally extraverted as other people of the same type (just a little more extraverted actually))

EJ types with an IP (normalizing) subtype will be the most extraverted comapred with other people of the same type because they lead with a JeE function

EJ types with an EJ (dominant) subtype will be the most introverted compared with other people of the same type because they lead with a JeI function.

Again, you could have done all of this chart by yourself. THE KEY HERE IS TO LOOK AT YOUR COGNITIVE FUNCTIONS: Let's say you are an INTJ trying to determine your subtype. After all there are 28 subtypes for the INTJ (or any other type), 7 in each of the 4 groups. Out of the EJ subtypes we have pure EJ, ExTJ, ExFJ, ESFJ, ESTJ, ENTJ, ENFJ (7 EJ subtypes). Back to our INTJ, different subtypes will affect its cognitive functions differently. The most extraverted INTJ would be the NiE-Te so the ENFP subtype. (NiE-TeI would be a little more introverted, you get the idea, and NiE-TeE doesn't exist). The most introverted INTJ would be NiI-Te so INFJ subtype (NiI-TeE would be a little more extraverted that just simple Te alongside the NiI, and NiI-TeI doesn't exist)

You can do that for every type. Unfortunately I only made that chart above for the subtype groups (4 for each type, 64 types in total) not for the actual subtypes, which are 448 because that would consume far too much of my time. MAYBE I will do it in the future :)

HOW TO SELF-GROWTH (Evolve, as /u/NeutralizeCommand said)

I am open to suggestions, but, I personally believe that the way to psychological balance is to try to “de-crystalize” the fixations. Let’s look back at the clay analogy I gave. You need to try to try to mold the clay again, because the longer it stays in a position the more it gets set in stone in that position. The more you play with it, the more flexible it gets.

For example, the more you fixate on Te (if you have an ExTJ subtype), the more the Fe fixation gets suppressed (Because, as I said, Te and Fe cancel each other because they’re opposite functions). What you need to do is try to reach a balance between the Te and Fe fixation. By having a Te fixation your thinking functions will be TiE and TeI. When you reach balance between the Te and Fe fixations, your feeling functions will become FiE and FeI (because that will happen if you originally had a Fe fixation) and your overall stack will have TiE-FeI (the evolve mode) and TeI-FeI (same evolve mode /u/NeutralizeCommand talked about in his original post). For example, if you had an INFP with a Te/ExTJ fixation, his stack would be: Fi-Ne-Si-TeI-Fe-Ni-Se-TiE. When he/she reaches balance and de-crystalizes his Te fixation into a Te/Fe fixation, his stack would be: FiE-Ne-Si-TeI-FeI-Ni-Se-TiE. You’ll have the two evolve modes: FiE-TeI and FeI-TiE.

If you are already too layers in deep, you first need to balance out your deeper fixation, and then move out to working on the main fixation. For example, if you had the same INFP, this time having a TeNi/ENTJ fixation, his stack would be: Fi-NeI-Si-TeI-Fe-NiE-Se-TiE. When he de-crystalizes his Ni fixation into a Ni/Si one he would become an only Te/ExTJ subtype INFP and his stack would be: Fi-NeI-SiE-TeI-Fe-NiE-SeI-TiE. Now what we need to do is focus on de-crystalizing his Te fixation into a Te/Fe fixation, making him FiE-NeI-SiE-TeI-FeI-NiE-SeI-TiE.

THE MODELS OF HOW THE FUNCTION STACKS LOOK IN EACH SUBTYPE “GROUP”:

For the fully balanced dominant subtype, all the functions are of opposing attitude to the normal attitude of a function. All Ji functions are JiE all Je functions are JeI, all Pi functions are PiE, all Pe functions are PeI. On the first layer deep, when only the thinking gets fixated, the feeling remains neutral. When you de-crystalize the thinking fixation, both the thinking and feeling get fixated. Vice-versa for feeling first.

On the 2^nd layer, when only the sensing gets fixated, the intuition remains neutral. When you de-crystalize the sensing functions, both the sensing and the intuition functions get fixated. Vice-versa for intuition first.

For the fully balanced normalizing subtype, all the functions are of corresponding attitude to the normal attitude of a function. All Ji functions are JiI, all Je functions are JeE, all Pi functions are PiI, all Pe functions are PeE. On the first layer deep, when only thinking gets fixated, the feeling remains neutral. When you de-crystalize the thinking fixation, both the thinking and feeling get fixated. Vice-versa for feeling first.

For the fully balanced creative subtype, all the perceiving functions are of opposing attitude to the normal attitude of a function. All judging functions are of corresponding attitude to the normal attitude of a function. All Ji functions are JiI, all Je functions are JeE, all Pi functions are PiI, all Pe functions are PeE. On the first layer deep, when only sensing gets fixated, intuition remains neutral. When you de-crystalize the sensing fixation, both sensing and intuition become fixated. Vice-versa for feeling first.

For the fully balanced harmonizing subtype, all the perceiving functions are of corresponding attitude to the normal attitude of a function. All the judging functions are of opposing attitude to the normal attitude of a function. All Ji functions are JiE, all Je functions are JeI, all Pi functions are PiI, all Pe functions are PeE. On the first layer deep, when only sensing gets fixated, intuition remains neutral. When you de-crystalize the sensing fixation, both sensing and intuition become fixated. Vice-versa for feeling first.

As you’ve seen, the dominant and normalizing subtype have all of the functions of either opposing or corresponding attitude to the normal attitude of a function. The creative and harmonizing subtype have half of them corresponding (J for creative, P for harmonizing) and half of them opposing (P for creative, J for harmonizing).

Note that Dominant and Normalizing subtypes tend to attract and complement each other, as do Creative and Harmonizing subtypes. In long-term intimate relations, for example, the couple is likely to end up each taking on one of these roles, even if that's not how they started out.
