Laws The need for existence to align strictly to an order is the main drive for LSIs, who demand a structured and consistent way of viewing their world and acting within it. LSIs naturally direct their attentions to understanding the rules for how things are, how things fit together and whether they do so coherently. With great precision, they are able to assess the logical correctness of systems and whether they follow from evident truths, or else pick out exactly where an action or statement has deviated from underlying principles. From such structures, LSIs establish certainty in their lives, knowing exactly what is correct or incorrect, what can be expected and what should not be, while bringing such assurances to others. LSIs tend to serve as voices of justice or incorruptibility to their friends and communities, setting out precisely what is...

DISCLAIMER: This article deals with a hypothetical application of Socionics to careers. It is not scientific and does not prescribe facts to be relied on in real life, but rather considers how one might approach career choices from within the postulates of the Socionics theory.  A suitable career for a Socionics type can best be approached in term of (1) their natural capabilities for different sorts of tasks, and (2) their affinity with certain values for managing a business. The capabilities of a type to perform different tasks is thought to be largely decided by the Strong/Weak and Bold/Cautious dichotomies: The Strong + Bold functions, i.e. the Leading (1 st ) and Demonstrative (8 th ) functions, are seen as the most competent and confident parts of the psyche, being utilised powerfully by the type. The Strong + Cautious functions, i.e. the Creative (2 nd ) and Ignoring (7 th ) functions, are competent but less confident, being used in a capable but flexible and...

Emotions ESEs are natural optimists with a bright, light-hearted and vivacious emotionality which they readily express and communicate to others. More than anything, ESEs are driven by a desire to lift the mood in those around them, creating a love of life and sense of fun. Consequently, ESEs tend to dedicate themselves towards the emotional wellbeing of others with a warm sense of humour, easily making others laugh or feel better about themselves, while filling up the room with positive energy.

They enjoy organising celebrations, bringing people together and ensuring everyone has a good time. As such, they tend to be very welcoming, inviting all people to s...

This is the profile for the Sensory Ethical Integrator (SEI). To see more type profiles, click here . Julia Child 1. Senses SEIs are primarily disposed towards the enjoyment of their surroundings and satisfaction of sensory desires. Sensitive to their environment, SEIs are naturally attuned to the temperature, colour, smell, feel, etc. of the space they occupy and will endeavour to finely tune these qualities according to their tastes. They are most given to maintaining pleasant, relaxing atmospheres that satisfy their physical needs and tastes in harmony with the surroundings, while nurturing the blissful coexistence of others. An emphasis is often placed on aesthetic beauty, with colours and shapes being arranged in the right manner for people to enjoy. Similarly, SEIs are very conscious of the physical needs of their body, being able to pick up on when they are hungry or tired and finding the right thing to satisfy their needs. In this way, the SEI lifestyle is one that prioritis...
