I'm not sure about my true type, yet, but looks like everything seems to point at ISFP. I was wondering if Fi users didn't had a Ti that came from themselves as well, it wasn't just the Te, though, that wasn't enough. I was between in a decision of Ti and Fi to find out which one I had, but after watching your video, turns out that I am an ISFP (but I'm still not sure about it, so yeah). Also, could you do a "5 signs that you're not an ISFP" video? That would be very interesting and people will have knowledge of how this type of Fi dominant works

I've been following on for quite a while. I've almost continually evaded every other source in around about similar topics, I've almost been pretty much been stuck in a paradox of extreme self-doubt every time I go through with confirmation, due to how I contextually view everything, even the smallest discrepancies that I unconsciously perceive and pattern across in my head, leads me to reconsider like most people in the system, I resent the fact that I have no control over this patterning so often (btww I've come to take a lot of what you're saying at face value, since the way you've constructed your explanations of axes and functions dipping in and out contextually, with cognition being a lot more fluid than is perceived in the jungian community at a mass, which is not just similar but almost identical to various of my pre-concepts in similar grounds hopefully not just as a coincidence lol, which kind of hooked me onto your system that's built its way up quite intricately explaining all the holes that was not well addressed by the direct inferences from Jung). The doubt arrived really when you spoke of the two derivatory logic bases of either an attached or a detahced style, I never hold any personal meaning or significance to theories I invest myself in, but within the narrow limits of interests I have revolving like abrnomal/cognitive psychology, astronomy/astrophysics and theology etc, I was stunned to see how unironically it truly held itself there in the realms of the style of attached logic you spoke of, which made me question it all again since I was readily taking everything at face value. I do think certainly with external confirmation for the sake of external verification in my situation that the attunement to theories, is not in anyway shape or form a sense of attaching with me. I realized the Se show up very often too as I thoroughly analyzed how I took in information as you elaborated (how once I had a source to confide in I had a natural tendency to critic while taking things at face value) Your content rejuvenated and boosted my understandings and underdeveloped constructs aswell as ideas about the theory to develop much better. Keep up the great work, I think you're largely caught up with your new research initiatives as a work in progress, and I will surely be contributive and validating of it in any way, shape or form possible. Though I'd look for the miracle of one last citing of perhaps a video on, "5 Signs You're Not an ISTP" if you do return to do it for the sake of finishing up the line of series there for its own adamancy?

When we first met, my logical side loomed large as did his emotional side, but we instantly felt at home together. What you mention about short burst of usage makes so much sense. I love going to someplace new and exciting-for a day or two. And I had long wondered about his regular flips between cautious resistance to anything new and headlong rashness. You even explained why he so stubbornly put all his career goals in one basket (which heart wrenchingly broke). Now to find paths to wholeness based on each of our particular set of processes. Because, while we share our top 4 functions, there are many times I can’t imagine what it’s like to be so different from my experience. And my own path is radically different from what he needs

Hi. I have enfj/infj/intj results in tests, but I'm constantly in doubt, can't be sure, and constantly wondering if I'm not that type (infj). Information from internet ( videos and moree ) that I have telling me that Im INFJ. Also, I constantly experience feelings of inadequacy in myself. I worry about identifying myself with infj because I constantly doubt if it's not me. I tell myself that I probably just convinced myself that I'm infj so I'm not infj or yes or no, I don't understand. And by the way, I observed and I don’t seem to read people or feel their emotions but there are rarely moments, so to speak, when I intuitively understand something in advance, but so rarely. ( btw, my empathy type from test is cognitive empathy ) I don't understand, please please explain And one more thing. Feelings of guilt and inadequacy, for example because of my behavior and words, is thing that I have I would be happy if someone could explain something to me Many people in comments under the videos of infj type write quite openly that they are infj ( like "As an infj.." ), but I constantly doubt.Because of this I have more doubts

Ok, now I'm confused. I really don't see my cognitive functions in any type. All I can relate to is that socio- psychic stuff about my struggles, fears, childhood behavior or working habits. I even tried to figure out, which type is so absolutely NOT me, so I can take the opposite and tell that I am an intuitive who is disgusted to all that Infjs -"that's so totally me" stereotype comments and channels. But this channel is the only one without stereotyping! And still... I can't see me clearly in all those types. All I can say is that I had struggles like: The fear of tribe hate, while hating the tribe. The fear of not feeling others like a wall between me and the people. Wanna be alone and isolate my self like an eremite and then once a year regret it. The fear of getting chronic illness. Being fascinated in mechanics and sociopsychology. Being always automaticly the opposite of everybody, but being the same with one single person at once like a dynamic duo. Being overwhelmed by options in life I don't wanna lose - doing nothing or refuse to take final decisions. Being dominant and stubborn on others but don't want to be the captain of the team. Understanding socialmechanics in the system like a pro, but feeling helpless in life. Solving others problems, but can't fix my shit even with all my insides and knowledge. Want to be a mentor and guide for others, but then behave like rebelraiser... ...and so on. What the hell is my type? Answer: anyone at once! And: I'm negatively tested on adhs/add. When I learned theories in college, my brain wired EVERYTHING up to things I've read 10 years ago. Combining everything! even when I didn't want to. I couldn't fit with deadlines cause of this. So my brain sends me lists of "updates" even through presentations the stuff I've written yesterday seems so old to me, I reject it. I only sleep with music so I don't have to think. And two things I hear the most: Someone is worrying about me and I think to much. So I don't want to be Infj, but have the feeling I am one.

Typed myself as ISFP recently and honestly this video is so relatable and cuts out all the bullshit of stereotypes. Tertiary Ni can really narrow in on an idealization of the future whether near future or distant. However that idealization is always of a concrete experience that I'm curious to explore, and often I visualize it in my head and can sometimes get very particular about the details if i've spent a lot of time thinking over it. I think with my Se authority there's this desire to self express through aesthetics, and showcase a new version of myself. Often this has been much deliberated on, possibly over a large amount of time, but the eventual actualization is certain once my Fi latches onto the vision. The issue this can cause is I can be hyperfixated on something for a chapter of my life, watching many videos on it, but struggling to take action, especially when there are many external logical processes involved. If that thing goes to shit however, it can really feel like a weight dragging down and it's hard to channel change to anything else, except perhaps a way round it to realign it. I think the ISFP can be very externally unaware a lot of the time and shut off in a state of disconnection from surroundings, and in between each chore or task this compulsive need to ground oneself and untangle the internal wiring by consulting with the internal world like I'm counseling myself or in a state of thinking about and refining what I'm gonna say to people in the near future or down the line. I can see why a lot of ISXPs mistype as INXJs, as when action is finally taken it's often been deliberated on for quite awhile and a lot of the time the Se is spent gathering in a rather safe manner receiving experience, instead of being very naturally proactive and forceful.

"INTJ tends to be logically cautious and more naturally contempt inching closer step-by-step to a distance vision in a grander design, on an everyday basis." So basically, I do resonate with this. There are visions I had for over a decade I am inching closer in which I cannot let go of, rather than all-or-nothing. However, this is easier said than done, especially when obstacles do get in the way, very likely do to perfectionism. When something goes unexpected, I feel like this is my failure, although often times I do get back on track.

Thank you for a brilliantly constructed and very informative video, Harry. It's very refreshing to see how your approach is rigorous, detailed, scientific and intellectual. Cognitive typology has a rich tradition of adopting this approach, expressed through the work of Carl Jung, Peter B. Myers and Naomi Quenk, but sadly it seems absent from many circles. As you highlight yourself, many circles rely on stereotypes and create an atmosphere that will greatly limit the practical use of typing. Furthermore, I'm glad that you gave ISxPs in general an accurate portrayal that actually highlights many of their strengths. Too often these types, along with INFPs, I would argue, are portrayed as underdog types that are over-sensitive and impractical - that stereotype is inaccurate, and you're helping to push back against it. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to the print version of the CPT book coming out! God bless, Isaac.

I type as an INFP and I agree 100% that the stereotype that Fi dominants really know themselves and have a firm grip on their values and feelings is bullshit. I’m constantly discovering new things about myself. I think a bigger indicator of whether someone is an Fi dominant, is whether they give importance to interrogating their reactions to things. I think it’s this value placed on really trying knowing oneself that is a hallmark of the Fi dominant. But the interrogation and auditing never really ends. I think it’s also this life-long search that gives the IXFPs this quality of being a bit self-preoccupied and withdrawn within themselves.

Maybe you are younger so they are not as clear, its natural early on to explore alot. Through experience you learn what is true to you and is not, it comes with age, and wisdom, trial and error. At this age I am more honing in on the various subjects I've chosen or need to for my goals, rather than exploring a million different ones that informs but doesn't provide much beyond that, because at some point it becomes super inefficient, plus its impossible to know all I would like to know about, every single last thing that interests me I can literally waste weeks, months, even years, where as mastering those that resonate the most provide not only more productivity but self appreciation through achievement which is something we tend to lack, completing things, providing valuable information you have mastered to self and others. I've tested thing now I'm ready to take that to another level. Where as before I picked many things sometimes even good at them or did well but dropped at some point it tires and doesn't build solid foundations that some other types are good at building .

Totally relate to Fi users being supported by the Ni magic of a kaleidoscope ideal vision that sort of manifests as archetypes.... your way of expressing that particular use of Fi-Ni and in comparison to ISTPs use in a more methodical process; was very awesome; I had an ISTP as a Creative Partner for lots of Creative projects..... and that was Magical in itself cause we both understood eachother and had Massive amounts of Humor and Ingenuity in the process!!!!!! our conversations were so awesome and we got a LOT done in a creative fashion. But it is funny; sometimes he would tell me; that everything is a matter of small steps leading to a bigger step. So to keep things in manageable steps; and slowly accomplish the bigger goal. He was a lot less emotional in terms of reaction, and would find simple easy ways to "make fun of the audience, or make fun of the responding or corresponding people within our direct project" Which always made me Laugh and brought me back to feeling artistic and grounded; in a way where my emotions; didn't exceed the better of me; and i was able to stay objective on the whole entirety of the process and sort of find "Play" in all of it; good or bad. It was super awesome to work partners with an ISTP on artistic projects; honestly; probably the best career choice partner for an ISFP you could hope for...... really speaks to Home; yet is objective enough and resonating similarity enough to keep it light-hearted and fun and motivating throughout the ordeal. I think in retrospect; we both sort of enticed eachother to do bigger and funnier, and better things. Which in turn is a beautiful correlation between two - similar - yet two entirely independent individuals that sort of low key get brightened up by the same doings of things..... the same goal and artistic motivation and when you can collaborate and continue to do so; it's quite an extraordinary result....

Random thoughts: I've seen a lot of people mistyping ISFPs as being INFJ or ISFJ, because they obviously use Ti and find it quite easy to display a lot of Fe despite having Fi preference. And they tend to be good actors and blend in a certain social situation. On the other hand, many INFJs and ISFJs being mistyped as ISFP, just because they are sometimes "in their own world" and seem to be a bit emotionally distanced. ISTPs often wet confused with INTJ as we all know.

3 video's in one? That'll attract a variety of viewers! I had read somewhere that you wanted to publish research papers on CPT. I'm very excited about that and would like to know how you would approach the "scientification" of the theory. You said that a large chunk of your theory is based on case studies. I would assume those are based on observation of behaviour. Cognitive functions are wired within the brain so in order to prove the existence of the functions one would have to make brain scans and compare the results of people from different types, right? So if you manage to see the differences between the types using this method, would that make one able to know his/her type through just a brain scan? I don't know what approach you will take but I'm assuming it has to involve the brain in some way. It is the COGNITIVE Personality Theory after all. Also, will it be something that can be peer reviewed? If so that would strengthen the validity of the theory if confirmed by others. My main question is: how do you want to prove the scientific validity of your theory and when do you plan on publishing the research papers?
@CognitivePersonality2 жыл бұрын
There's a good amount of literature on both together but a good portion of the theory - and I suspect typology as a whole over at least the next few years - has a big inferential component to it. Proving cognitive type in a robust, single study would be a big undertaking involving tasks simulating a solid variety of human contexts and measuring both aptitude, comfort and brain activity together. It would be cool to look at not only the context, but also the cross-context in so far as transitioning between tasks is concerned. Then there are also visual cues which some typologist rely upon more than others. In conjunction with the other methods this would also be valuable. The problem is I do not believe any single one of these methods are reliable for proving type independently, all the while all methods together in a single study is rather ambitious.. I rather like the idea of multiple studies by different people towards some kind of meta analysis, as I am increasingly suspecting taking typology into a truly empirical setting is going to be a collaborative effort. I don't yet have a PhD under my belt but that is very much my intention going into the future!

Very interesting video! Congratulations Harry! 👏 So, basically NI can be seen as the first door/main way we walk towards our objectives ( for NI dominants), while being more of a tool for a specific purpose in the cases of Istps and Isfps. However, I was also thinking about ISTPs and their need of FE-affirmation, a little similar to INFJs, but in their case ISTPs are more specific in their need of affirmation. So, would you say that, in a room, ISTPs could handle much better than an INFJ some people not giving good affirmation for them as long as their close friends or specific people supported them?( Se-Fe) While INFJs could be annoyed/uncomfortable easier even if people who are not as close as them give a negative feedback socially, in the current moment, (Fe-Se) since FE is an authority in this case. [I'm an infj and very curious about the similarities and differences between them and ISTPs. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough or assumed something wrong.]

It was the opposite of what you suggest: I didn't care about what the masses thought of me (I knew I came across as a weirdo) but rather what the people I considered important to me thought of me. The ISTP was vigilant of things like overall image and reputation, and appearing non-perfect to strangers and semi-strangers and other students gave her the shivers.

@@timefortee Perhaps this is related to your NI TI which, over time, has caused you to mature (as with many other INFJs and people in general). You came to the conclusion that it is simply not possible to please everyone these days. And since INFJs can convince themselves of something deeply if it comes from their own parameters and logic, that would explain the case. Because, at least initially, I think an INFJ would care about feedback from people in general, until they discover that certain people don't have a congruent logic in the INFJ's eyes or social behavior that the INFJ agrees with. That way, the INFj would quickly stop focusing so much on these people, I would say. Now, ISTPs may seem to care “a lot more” because, in most cases at least, they are more socially spontaneous than INFJs. We can say that INFJs are more socially polished, basically. So, as ISTPs can receive greater judgment from others, they can also appear to have a stronger or more visible “charisma” than we INFJs, who have a calmer and seemingly wiser charisma, so to speak. Thus, ISTPs could seem to care more about people in social interactions because of their intensity, spontaneity. It is important to remember that they have SE as an authority role, which means they are especially focused on observing the outside world in an intense way, through the emotions of others. This makes them have this characteristic so striking in social interactions. We INFJs, on the other hand, are concerned with FE, our authority function, we want to observe social harmony, maintain it. That way, if the INFJ convinces themselves that they don't have to worry about a certain person in a social interaction, we'll still be concerned about the overall harmony of the conversation and will try our best to avoid social conflicts. Even those coming from whom we're not focusing on. However, ISTPs are still people who place a high value on internal logic (Ti-Ni). So if they see that someone is acting in a way that doesn't make sense to them and that goes against their internal logic, they will quickly leave the social interaction, in a more direct and spontaneous way than INFJs. The INFJs may still use social norms and worry about the harmony of the entire conversation even when they are leaving a conversation or not listening to someone. At such moments, ISTPs may seem far less concerned about FE and more attentive to their own experience (SE) and what makes sense to them. Something that would help you better understand ISTPs socially and gain more perspective on your friend's social behavior is this video by Harry comparing the INTP with the ISTP: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2WXdGSrea5ohJY (Watch from 10:11 to 12:24 in order to be more exact about ISTP´s social behavior, of course, if you wish so.) But, of course, we are only talking about roles in the standard form here, both INFJs and ISTPs are capable of caring for others and being direct or spontaneous in their own way, I just wanted to explain my view based on what I analyzed from the CPT how they behave in general in some cases. I honestly hope you have a great day!

I was typed as ISTP by rob in your CPT. I don't care about being respected. I care about being loved. I know you said not to quote you as it's not serious observation. But that's what I hate about getting a thinker type, we're suddenly void of human desires and love. And people shove you into a non-feeling box. I know you're not like that but I just get sensitive about it. I also care and at the same not care about being rejected/shamed, I do view it as badge of being unique and different, willing to go against the grain therefore proving my individuality. But at the same i want to be liked, i don't like conflicts and cower from it. So maybe it's not a strictly ISFP thing. I also feel very connected to certain archetypes, characters or themes as I feel they represent me or reflect the inner me. But I don't try to embody them. Just that I identify with them. Rob said that's not isfp Fi. That there's a difference there because isfp Fi try to embody certain characters, archetypes into real life.

It's interesting to think about how this all works. I, for example, joined your channel believing I was an ESTP, but your videos solved all the problems related to this typing. I currently consider myself an ENTJ or ESFP (my personality is quite static, after all), as I've always believed in the idea of "hyper focus" and manage to maintain an unshakable discipline quite easily (mostly because of my "insane motivations", and methods that I consider highly efficient for this). All the affection you have with the potential that each type has The way you look at each cognitive type is fundamentally different from anything else on the web. You are much more of a scientist. An example is intuitive types in the dichotomy interact a lot with sensory types (I imagine in that pyramid of yours, a variant would be INTP x ESTJ, ENTJ & INTJ) If I lived in your country, I wouldn't mind funding a research that could find the veracity of your entire theory lmao

There’s SO MUCH WASTE with investment or money going to BAD TYPOLOGISTS. Harry ACTUALLY gets things… actually researches, ACTUALLY has read Jung, ACTUALLY has built on Jung and then IMPROVED Jung… Nobody else has done this… every single one else has alternating IEIE/EIEI against what Jung’s actual DATA as a psychologist discovered… II or EE. The auxiliary follows the dominant in attitude. ONCE YOU GET THAT RIGHT… then there is almost a NATURAL progression of understanding that begins to open up… And Harry is delineating the theory after that fact. (Oddly enough… I don’t read anywhere that Jung EVER said that there is an auxiliary that is opposite in attitude… meaning, if one has differentiated THREE functions, they should all be in the direction of the dominant… ((iii/eee)). But that would be messy…) Also, one needs to have two functions that are in the opposite attitude in the event of Opposing flips (or, Subconscious attitude); SO…. I guess that means that IIEE or EEII is implied. At any rate… That’s the KEY that opens up ALL of this.

Bravo. this is Brilliant. espcecially the bit at the end. But really thats cause it was the most apparent by the time it ended.... and countless times i was thrown away by how incredible the whole connection-logic-and epiphany performance it gave my mind throughout the whole engaging video!!! cheers! I really thank you for everything you contribute to my life, and others. - ISFP here and hopefully by 35 and on a long journey since then.... i hope to be considered a more healthy state granting more maturity over my Ni which i believe i do; yet a neverending journey it seems progressing forward through life circumstances and a beautiful unfolding of it all... I yeah, i'd love to say I'm a highly more mature version of an isfp; yet cannot grant myself that as i'm just going with the flow; and these days am less interested in proof and rather more silent in my attempts of interacting and more mindful of my whole holisitic way of life. i guess i say holisitic in a sense of just being; and not merely concerned with anything else; as far as a more zen way of approaching life. Its funny, i'm still myself, i'm just less interested in analyzing it. Or it's a realization of Age...... and knowing my resources. Like knowing that my Mental resource and my Physical resource is limited. therefore it sort of precedes my childish behaivors in the past of pretending like those resources didn't exist or affect me. I don't let those resources go to waste; and i don't care about explaining them to other people as much as i use to. Unless it is in a direct objective way of expressing what I will and won't do; which I find chat gpt to really help me with that; since I have a hard time offending anyone so chat gpt gives me a simple revised version of what I want to say....and in turn.... it makes me feel better about sending quick and resolute solutions or responses to people, events, or things. Mind you, super helpful to an ISFP as everything is sort of personal; so this use of technology will only better the act of unwanted use of te. and not that i have an issue with te, but clearly overusing that ability sort of imbalances the Fi. (I might revise all of this, not sure, kind of interested in hearing others take on all of it) Needless to say; this video was spot on; as I'm most friends with ISTP, INFJ and my triplet brother is an INTP which is a super interesting dynamic. Dunno if you ever did a thought for TRIPLETS as individuals....cause entering the world as a triplet child.....it almost feels like a wolf pack; but that is my perspective... the feeling you're not alone, and everything you experience, so do your triplet sibling counterparts but the awareness that you're experiencing it in real time- the same time- the same moment as them. is quite magical. my sister is an ISTJ and my brother is an INTP and me i am an ISFP. I always found it beyond the human threshold of one's sense of self being born into the world ALONE. But when you are a TRIPLET you are born coinciding with TWO OTHER HUMAN LIVES that you sort of grasp as this ENTITY AWARENESS that you all are closer than blood yet/ entirely Unique/ Yet there is no sense of "Aloneness" because you were never Born "ALONE" so there's a sense of; regardless of their "TYPE" they are "THE CLOSEST THING TO YOU" than any other "EXTERNAL" person or circumstance could permit..... always wondered if you'd consider ---> Making a Video pertaining to Triplets or Twins in comparison to being "Born Alone" and therefore "alone" in every sense of the word versus the former...........

one thing I've noticed about organization, procedure, "path of least resistance" in regard to logistical action, etc.: INTJ's think about/consider these angles in their head, but on the outside it just seems like they do them/"abide" by this action-based logic... For me, it's quite the opposite! I'm always like, "Yeah, but WHY is this done that way." OR "This doesn't make sense to do it this way because of a, b, and c!" Now, many times it's MORE HELPFUL to take the INTJ's typical approach on these things, in regard to working with "the way things just ARE", and NOT trying to analyze the procedures/etc. too much, especially when you (I) analyze something with no real intent to take action around it, haha... For me, 'Te' is something where I'm like, "well, the way it's being done is stupid and doesn't make sense..." :P

@CognitivePersonality2 жыл бұрын
Convergence operates as an extension of the ego, which resides in our primary functions of the same orientation. The ego seeks to direct and influence, whereas that outside the ego happens *upon* the ego. As one side of a continuum is controlled, the other is observed. Control of one thing at the behest of the other's observation. I ran with this principle and found it consistent with reality. NiFi in an INTJ is convergent, and SeTe divergent, but the attitudes are as fluid as the functions themselves.
