Irrationality is a perceptual style that focuses on sensory impressions, intuitive flas
• Tends to act spontaneously, observing the situation as it unfolds
• Generally flexible and tolerant
• May frequently change decisions
• Takes on many things at once but may lose interest and abandon them midway
• Movements appear smooth and fluid
• Leadership style tends to be democratic (bottom-up)
• Relatively high stress tolerance
Dynamic types tend to perceive the world as a continuous flow of change, focusing on tr
• Tends to perceive the world as a continuous process of change and flux
• Focuses on transitions, progressions, and directional trends
• Remembers events as narratives or flowing sequences
• Sensitive to processes and fluidity that unfold over time
• Focuses on "how things have changed" (past → future) rather than states themselves

Characteristic Behaviors and Cognition
• Recalls memories as "moving images" or video-like sequences
• Sensitive to changes in people and situations, adjusting beh
Decisive types are naturally in an action-ready state, preferring to act first and adju
Basic Characteristics
• Natural state: combat mode (ready to move)
• Adjusts while in motion (decide quickly → proceed → adjust as needed)
• Tries to finish things in one burst, maintaining focus for extended periods
• Even after completing a task, has difficulty winding down; switching gears takes time
• Focuses on execution and results; pays relatively little attention to the preparation phase
• Places importance on rewards, outcomes, and results (e.g., compensation amounts)

Typical Phrases
Serious types believe in objective, absolute standards of correctness and approach rela
Emotions and Relationships
• Has difficulty reading emotional atmospheres and subtle moods
• Does not separate fun from activity — experiences enjoyment as embedded within the activity itself
• Encounters must go through a step-by-step, formal process (e.g., introductions, greetings)

Characteristics
• Leverages past experience and knowledge to prepare in advance
• Utilizes established methods, rules, and accumulated know-how
• Holds the belief that "preparation is the key to success"
• Includes the background and information-gathering process in their answers, explaining how they arrived at their conclusions
• Considers many possibilities before taking a single action
• Finds reassurance in "preparing for contingencies"

Obstinate types treat their interests and passions as sacred and non-negotiable, while
Core Values

Key Characteristics

• Finds it difficult to stop once they have committed to something

• A "single-tasker" who focuses on one thing at a time
• Tends to read books and information from beginning to end in order

Speech Tendencies and Vocabulary
• Prefers words like "flow," "process," "step by step," and "in progress"

• Tends to identify problems and deficiencies, driven to resolve them
• Initially keeps some distance with new acquaintances, making cautious assessments
• Uses negative expressions more than positive ones ("it's not...," "I wouldn't...")
• When presenting an issue, leads with the negative perspective: "this is good, but this is missing"

• Sees others as individuals rather than categorizing them as "a certain type of person"

• Values "being who I am" — individualistic by nature
• Shows little interest in questions like "where is this person from?"
• Rarely uses expressions like "I represent such-and-such group"

Characteristics of People Strong in This Function

Positive Traits (Healthy Range)

【Strategist】
Loosely lays groundwork, validates through experiments, and quietly steers at the optimal timing
Guides the group to long-term stability through persistent insight and understated validation
Decisively shifts course toward the cutting edge while minimizing failure costs

【Defensive Strategist】
Avoids both overinvestment and bold gambles
Draws the optimal move while preserving retreat routes
Risk-suppression oriented design

【Quiet Lab Mentor】
Quietly observes juniors' prototypes
Batch review once data is gathered → minor corrections
Quiet guidance

【Stabilizer】
Absorbs fluctuations through long-term foresight
Stabilization through incremental correction
Shadow Brain

【Information Accumulator】
Quietly accumulates data
Stores as appendix notes
Backs up available options

Neutral Traits

Differences by Developmental Stage

【Early Stage: Individual Use Period (Childhood to Early Adolescence)】
Uses +Ni-p and -Te-c sequentially — "first predict, then verify"
Takes time, requires externalization
Strengthening: Diverse inputs (+Ni-p), diverse outputs (-Te-c)

【Mid Stage: Easy Coordination Period (Late Adolescence to Early Adulthood)】
Coordination becomes easier — "predicting while verifying" becomes possible
Sign detection → immediate small experiments
Strengthening: Diverse thinking and contemplation (Correlator)

【Late Stage: Integration Period (Late Adulthood to Middle Age)】
Gradually blending — formation of the Dialectical Algorithm
Unifies as "selection and strategy"
Intuitive accuracy improves through experience

【Mature Stage: Complete Integration Period (Middle Age to Old Age)】
Eventually becomes one process
Sign detection is immediately accompanied by small experiments
Grasps the optimal move at a glance and decides quietly
Years of experience and wisdom, mentoring younger people
