how does the relationship calculator work?

[hardken]

It seems that the relationship calculator is correct, for subtypes,

there is primary, secondary and tertiary relationship

can the formula be disclosed in order for everyperson to know and to give opinion on the methodology used

THX very much

--------------

moreover, about the extended test

there are something wrong for the test

for the test,

coz, I am ENTj

I value and 'use' Te , Ni, Se Fi

but the second section, only allows me to choose from T and S, so my result becomes ESTj-2Te/3Te with a 96% likely to be an ENTj, only sometimes after the image test, my result goes back to ENTj, coz there is ISFj photo to choose.

since I choose Se against Ne very much in the first page

but the original test has no problems

[hardken]

I think for the extended test, the second section's choices should increase more questions

for ENTj

I use Te , Ni , Se and Fi, but for an extrovert, Se may be bolder than Ni ,

if Te is recognized in the first page, A test included ENTj, ESTj, ESTp, should be used instead of the original one testing xSTx for only S and T are tested

but the socionics original test is very good already

maybe strength of function test should be included as well for other test

thz for the website, it indicates that you really have very in-depth understanding of socionics

Thanks for feedback. I may try and fix the extended socionics test at some point, but it's not a high priority right now. I do get omes complaints regarding how the test can incorrectly place someone into the wrong club after the first section, which is something that will need to be corrected.

The methodology of the intertype relationship calculator... it's hard to explain very succinctly. Suffice to say that it's based on the theory that one's subtype will affect their intertype relationships. I'll have to create a new page to talk about the methodology in detail at some point.

Thanks, I also noticed that subtypes affects the relationship and the answer in the calculator seems to be more correct than the simple relationship of basic types.

about the socionics test, the renin dichotomies that I have chosen are all of ENTj's in the first page( like positivist, democratic, result), however, the second page only tests S and T

the test can be improved , but I know it indeed needs a lot of time to do that and time may not allow

thx for your reply

[hardken]

for the influence of subtypes, dichotomies of a personality's interaction may also creates some effect

since I've inputted ENTj-3Te's relationship with INFj-2Fi and ISFj-2Se, for the former it gets

INFj-2Fi -89%

Primary: Dual (72%)
Secondary: Semi-dual (26%)
Tertiary: Illusionary (2%)

ISFj-2Se-70%

Primary: Semi-dual (41%)
Secondary: Illusionary (31%)
Tertiary: Dual (28%)
- See more at: http://www.sociotype.com/tools/#Interty ... Calculator

For the relationship calculator , the interaction of subtypes exceed the original interactions' degree

since intertype interaction may also be affected by interactions of renin dichotomies

so I don't know whether there is still rooms of improvements on the relationship calculator

[hardken]

just tried the relationship calculator again, it's impressive, i think it is quite close to the reality, really interested in getting to know the theory underlying the cal, but still can guess some of it already

I would be really interested in hearing a more in-depth explanation of the calculator. I've never seen anything like it, it's really quite clever.
