Updated elemental definitions

In previous posts, I have made the distinction between positivist elements being focused on creating new frameworks or goals, whereas negativist elements tend to evaluate existing ones according to situational contexts. With such insight, it is possible to have new definitions for the elements that serve to better understand the domain for each one of them. Shout outs to Kimani White for helping out with the definitions.
T+: formulating new logical structures and a sense of where they might lead, in turn setting goals regarding specific expectations of the end result; this means only one approach should be processed at a time, lest its purpose be muddled
T-: finding the pros and cons of incorporating different structures, useful where no single approach can balance all the requirements in place; by defining where each one is suited best, there will be no room for conflict among them
N+: creating new narratives from disparate data points, thus allowing different phenomena to be interpreted as manifestations of an underlying reality; generality aids in the transmissibility of ideas
N-: evaluating the accuracy of narratives to account for specific phenomena, determining where they begin to break down and fail to be a truthful representation; individual cases are more important than general trends
F+: phrasing different points of view in a non loaded manner, thus creating a more open environment for socialization; enabling mutual understanding avoids personal conflicts
F-: determining which perspectives hold the most appeal, evaluating the personal reactions induced by them; by narrowing down the most important feelings, a better source of purpose can be found
S+: improvising new solutions for different problems, reaching satisfying solutions with limited resources; problems are individually dealt with as they come by, having a better sense of their magnitude
S-: determining which potential issues are most likely, selecting the procedures that can address them before they arise; structure adds consistency to deal with similar issues in the future

Refining the definitions of Sensing through Model B2

For those who have checked the elemental definitions of Model B2, it is quite apparent that Sensing is considered in terms of how to work and conduct projects. This aspect is notoriously absent, however, in most people's idea of Si. I consider it pertinent, thus, to redefine Si such that it can be best fit into my proposed framework. Si is not about sensory experiences, however pleasant they are, not about psychological comfort in general; or at least, it's not limited to that. To make a good contrast, it is useful to look first into Se, which is identifying the most impactful actions -whether on the social or practical sphere- and how to effect a change in the environment (here I'd like to pause and differentiate this from T+, which recognizes where potential lies, rather than how to enforce the structure in question). Si is unconcerned about making an effect per se, rather, it recognizes personal calls for confort and then satisfies them by recognizing which aspects could...

Natalie Wynn (IEE): Personality type analysis

Image
The purpose of this typing is to give a better sense of how the individual elements and functions come together in one single sociotype. As most of my previous articles have been focused on the elements, in-depth explanations of how a function works will be provided as the arguments are presented, with an attempt at relating how Model B2 functions are similar to specific Model A functions, as well as their differences. In this case, I will focus on the conflicts between the strong elements of the IEE: N- against N+, as well as F+ against F-. For this, I have selected transgender youtuber Natalie Wynn, host and owner of the channel Contrapoints. 9. Dialoguing F+ Perhaps Wynn is best known for her elaborate costumes and set design, which at first glance suggests the presence of F-, that is, the crafting of a message to be more appealing and shocking, with the purpose of conveying one's inner dispositions towards certain ideas or people. However, that relates to the means of her work,...

Positivist and negativist pairs

In a previous post, I proposed that positivist elements are expansive, concerned with the production or absorption of a new framework, which is accepted without a further filter, while negativist elements are refining in this regard, seeking to assess existing frameworks according to an external, non universal standard. I'd like to point out that this is not the same as the extroversion/introversion dichotomy, where each side takes respectively similar stances regarding the nature of content that is absorbed, rather than referring to the interpretation and/or management of such content. Now, I will mix both of these dichotomies to discuss the pairs that can be found in either Priority or Dimensionality blocks. SFi is refining as to personal relations, and it is not devoid of personal preferences, primarily when they refer to how comfortable and peaceful interactions will be. It is, however, positivist, and thus uses such interactions to take in what others have to say and deepen th...
