Detailed explanation

The original approach is based on Carl Jung’s Psychological Types theory.

Each person’s character leans towards one or another characteristic in each pair (also called dichotomies):
Extraverted (E) Introverted (I) How we interact
Sensing (S)
Intuitive (N)
How we get information
Thinking (T)
Feeling (F)
How we make decisions
Judging (J) Perceptive (P) If we prefer collect information or make decisions

Extraverted (E) – Introverted (I)

Aka. Extratim – Introtim

These characteristics describe the way we interact with the outside world and where we direct our energy.
Extroverts prefer to interact with the outside world.
Introverts prefer to interact with their own internal world.
Extraverted types Introverted types
Direct more energy to outside.
Focus on surroundings.
Direct more energy to inside.
Focus on their own feelings and thoughts.
Higher energy in a large group of people.
Lower energy when alone.
Prefer to work in a team.
Lower energy in a large group of people.
Higher energy when alone.
Prefer to work alone.
Generally more active.
Often have many friends. Easily make new friends.
Generally more passive.
Often have only a few friends.

There is a common misconception that extraverted persons are “socially outgoing” while introverted persons are “socially reserved”. That is not true all the time. Introverts may also be very sociable in a known company where all relations between individuals are clear.
What is more important in this case is if a person takes initiative in establishing the social interaction or prefers to let others do that.

Sensing (S) – Intuitive (N)

These characteristics describe the way we get information about the outside world.
Sensing focuses on details that can be directly experienced.
Intuition focuses on perception rather than specific details.
Sensing types Intuitive types
More realistic.
Pay more attention to details.
More focused on surroundings.
More interested in practice.
More focused on “what it is”.
More “head-in-the-clouds”.
See the big picture.
More focused on ideas.
More interested in theory.
More focused on “what it means”.

Thinking (T) – Feeling (F)

These characteristics describe the way we decide and make conclusions.

Feeling types focus on emotional experience and human relationships.
Thinking types focus on logical relationships and objective truth.
Feeling types Thinking types
Make decisions based on their feelings.
How something has been said is more important.
Prefer to think “good or bad”.
Better at solving interpersonal problems.
Prefer persuasion.
Make decisions based on logic.
What has been said is more important.
Prefer to think “right or wrong”.
Interested in structures and patterns.
Prefer argumentation.

Judging (J) – Perceptive (P)

Every human being does two things: collects information about the outside world and makes decisions based on this information. The way we collect information is characterized by Sensing-Intuition. The way we make decisions is described by the Thinking-Feeling pair.
Judging-Perception dichotomy describes what we prefer to do – collect information (perception) or make decisions (judging).
Judging types Perceptive types
Plan ahead, make decisions earlier.
More conservative.
Don’t like to change their decisions.
Tend to finish what they started.
Low stress tolerance.
More spontaneous, tend to wait and see.
More flexible and tolerant.
Frequently change their decisions.
Tend to start new things without finishing them.
High stress tolerance.

It’s never one OR another but rather one MORE than another. While the actual ratio can be changing during the life course, the fact that a person is for example more extraverted than introverted is genetically predetermined.

Based on that, the Lithuanian researcher Ausra Augustinaviciute described 16 types of personality (also called sociotypes) – different combinations of each of Jung’s characteristics.

16 sociotypes

Formal name Socionics 4-letter code Type alias
Logical Sensory Extrovert (LSE) ESTj, The Administrator Stierlitz
Logical Intuitive Extrovert (LIE) ENTj, The Entrepreneur Jack London
Ethical Sensory Extrovert (ESE) ESFj, The Enthusiast Hugo
Ethical Intuitive Extrovert (EIE) ENFj, The Mentor Hamlet
Sensory Logical Extrovert (SLE) ESTp, The Conqueror Zhukov
Sensory Ethical Extrovert (SEE) ESFp, The Politician Napoleon
Intuitive Logical Extrovert (ILE) ENTp, The Seeker Don Quixote
Intuitive Ethical Extrovert (IEE) ENFp, The Advisor Huxley
Logical Sensory Introvert (LSI) ISTj, The Inspector Maxim Gorky
Logical Intuitive Introvert (LII) INTj, The Analyst Robespierre
Ethical Sensory Introvert (ESI) ISFj, The Guardian Dreiser
Ethical Intuitive Introvert (EII) INFj, The Humanist Dostoyevsky
Sensory Logical Introvert (SLI) ISTp, The Craftsman Gabin
Sensory Ethical Introvert (SEI) ISFp, The Peacemaker Dumas
Intuitive Logical Introvert (ILI) INTp, The Critic Balzac
Intuitive Ethical Introvert (IEI) INFp, The Romantic Yesenin

You can think of each personality type as a certain way of communicating with others. Depending on personality types of the persons interacting with each other
their relationship will have certain characteristics.

Ausra Augustinaviciute described 14 possible types of communications between different personality types (also called Intertype relations).

Intertype relations

The intertype relations are easier to remember by looking at dichotomies.

Depending on which types we are talking about, same dichotomy combinations may mean different relations. Therefore in the table below you’ll see 20 relations, while in fact there are only 14 and the 6 additional are only variations.

Depending on the relations you have with a person – work, friendship or intimacy certain intertype relations work better than others.
For friendship and intimacy, Duality relations are known to be the best.

Of course this is not the only factor that matters, however it’s a basis for building strong long-term relations that satisfy both partners.

The main reason why the personality type match is one of defining factors is that it’s predetermined as it was mentioned earlier and does not change much over time.
Other things like hobbies, habits, appearance etc. are important as well. They however may change over time and at the end of the day may not matter at all if both partners feel very comfortable and relaxed while being together.

That’s what Duality relations are about. In Duality relations you will be easily able to go along with each other for a long time and will never be bored of each other (Disclaimer)

Dual relations

Dual relations are characterized by mutual benefit and support, and are generally viewed as optimal for friendship, intimacy, and marriage (though the sociotype is not the only factor influencing this). Duality interaction is generally rewarding and satisfying for both parties, providing inspiration and support.

Duality is a central theme of the philosophy of the socionics study: Augusta often stated her view that a person who is estranged from contact with a dual partner must cope by unnaturally distorting their personality, a phenomenon called “type masking”.

Differences

How is this approach different from MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) and other systems based on it?

While MBTI has also been developed based on Jung’s work, it not only uses different types of terminologies and codes like INTj/INTp etc. It also uses function theory that is mutually exclusive with our approach. For example Thinking – Felling description in BMTI is not the same as what’s used to define sociotypes. Furthermore Jung doesn’t describe Thinking – Felling dichotomy as it’s used in MBTI.

Therefore the 16 MBTI types are not the same as the 16 sociotypes. By description, certain MBTI types correspond to several sociotypes each and vice versa.
