I found these useful. I was able to pick a type from this set before I knew my real type and it was accurate. I think I could be used as a self diagnosis tool but I'm not sure.

ESE, IEE or IEI I can't decide! :S

Probably IEE?

My functions are as follows:

What do you say, Kljoki?

quite intricate and obscure

I'm torn between ILI and LII based on the descriptions in the original post. They need regular expression syntax for borderline cases, like [(LI)|(IL)]I or something. (Yeah, I probably borked that, haven't used Unix for a LONG time.)

[Kljoki]

I can not decide which one is most like me because I don`t know what they mean by "passive relaxedness; ironic attitude". :lol: seriously, you don't know what "ironic attitude" means and you've been on this site for over 6 months?

EDIT: Not to mention "passive relaxedness"

<_< Ever seen Attila post recently? That's passive relaxedness with an ironic attitude.

[spasmfrog]

How do you feel about IEI?

IEI - wacky, goofy, dreamy; clown; interested in people?s inner life and where people are going with their emotional life

I'm interested as a matter of curiosity, I want to know what motivates people because so much of it seems to be nonsense. I wouldn't consider it a defining characteristic though.

I do tend to be goofy and dreamy and I try to play the clown at times to lighten the mood or make a point, but ILI and LII describe me better overall.

[Ka.avik]

How do you feel about IEI?
as someone who agrees w/SpasmFrog: no. Too many people-ish intrests in IEI. I'm not goofy unless I'm very tired, and I'm moderately sure I'm never dreamy. ILI seems a better personal match than LII, but it partly depends on the subject matter I'm applying myself to. With my horses or the neighbor's dogs I'm much more relaxed, and willing to have a playful outlook on life. Computers, and typology systems, are much more a thing for detach-ed contemplation.

But people? people are weird.

Oh, and I want (eventually) to get back to you on Se-as-mechanic, and something else I left you hanging about in that other thread of yours....I've got the quote at home, so maybe tonight.

Off topic, slightly: does socionics consider Se to be the same function the MBTI means, when they describe Se?

Ever seen Attila post recently? That's passive relaxedness with an ironic attitude.:huh: her only posting non-serious replies.

[Sally]

Different moods at different times..... Especially all the variations of logical+intuitive.

As usual, socionics doesn't provide any particular insight I didn't know before.

[Kristiana]

Based on moods alone, I can fit any of these:

ILE- explorative; light-hearted curiosity; optimistic; focused on interests; interested in ideas; usually upbeat; detached curiosity (this fits me pretty broadly)

LII - detached critical analysis; clear and independent thought and worldviews; appearance of self-control (yeah, this is me intellectualizing, which I tend to do a lot)

LIE - unbridled optimism; like movement; energetic; opportunistic; like to test limits (this is me when i'm hypomanic :P)

IEE - playfulness; tinge of irony; acceptance; frivolous; warm curiosity about people and relationships (this is the persona I generally present when I'm emotionally healthiest)
