心理学の性格タイプの決定メカニズム(MBTI,エニアグラム,ストレングスファインダー) – ナルキン心理学

Whether online or offline, being in a psychology community (MBTI Psychology(Let's take this as an example.) You may come across the following claims:

IESFJ (Sociable Type)）that's why、
↓
I am very careful about interpersonal relationships.
[ESFJ's primary function = main function isFe; extraverted feeling[Highly developed = Proficient] *The primary function is the function you are good at.

heINTP (Researcher Type)that's why、
↓
I can hardly pay any attention to interpersonal relationships.
[INTP's fourth function = inferior function isFe; extraverted feeling[I'm not good at it] *The fourth function is a function I'm not good at.

BelowESFJ (Sociable Type)）とINTP (Researcher Type)Please refer to the diagram illustrating the psychological functions (cognitive functions) of the human body.

Psychological functions (cognitive functions) of ESFJs

Extraverted Feeling/Fe
Very good at it /First function(dominant function)Follow what you deem right for everyone, what is good for the group.
Introverted Sensing/Si
I'm a little good at it /second function(Assistive function): To bear the responsibility for social obligations and responsibilities, discipline, loyalty, and honor.
Extroverted Intuition/Ne
I'm not very good at it.Third function(alternative function)They aim for their actions and procedures to be effective in the future, but they can become neurotic if things don't go their way.
Introverted Thinking/Ti
I'm really bad at it /Fourth function(inferior function)They fear and are anxious about things that are not logically correct. They don't know how to thoroughly analyze available information (or are unwilling to do so).

<ESFJ Cognitive Axis>

Fe – TiWe follow social rules and frameworks because it is logically the right thing to do.
Si – NeTo survive in this chaotic and uncertain world, we accumulate information obtained through our five senses.

Have you ever thought something like the above, "I'm a ○○ type, so I have a △△ personality"?

actually,This is in reverse order.It has become。

Reversing cause and effectThis is a common mistake people often make. Please refer to the following article for more details ↓

Reversal of Cause and Effect (Recognizing cause and effect in reverse) - Narukin Psychology | Narumechanism (Narukin's Mechanism of How Things Happen)

People often reverse cause and effect (the relationship between cause and effect). So, what are some specific examples of reversing cause and effect? Let's look at one typical example: Reversing Cause and Effect: "The more firefighters dispatched to a fire scene, the larger the scale of the fire...".

Does a personality test really determine a person's personality?

Let's assume there are two people, A and B. Let's go through the steps involved in determining their type, one by one.

In a psychological test that involved reflecting on daily life, the following results were obtained:

Person A: Has a very strong tendency to pay more attention to interpersonal relationships than other people.
Person B: Has a very weak tendency to pay attention to interpersonal relationships compared to other people.

Therefore, it is expressed as follows:

Person A: Has a very strong tendency to pay more attention to interpersonal relationships than other people. →FeVery strong
Person B: Has a very weak tendency to pay attention to interpersonal relationships compared to other people.→FeVery weak

Ultimately, personality types are determined as follows (although it's actually more complex, this is a simplified explanation to illustrate the essence): ↓

Person A →FeThis is the primary function (main function) →ESFJDiagnosed
Person B →FeThis is the fourth function (inferior function) →INTPDiagnosed

To summarize and connect the initial flow, it looks like this: ↓

Person A
↓
Take the test
↓
They have a very strong tendency to pay more attention to interpersonal relationships than other people.
↓
FeVery strong
↓
FeThis is the primary function (main function).
↓
ESFJDiagnosed

B
↓
Take the test
↓
They have a very weak tendency to pay attention to interpersonal relationships compared to other people.
↓
FeVery weak
↓
FeThis is the fourth function (primary function).
↓
INTPDiagnosed

In other words, the cause-and-effect relationship is as follows:

１Person A's characteristics (Person A is very considerate of interpersonal relationships) are reflected in the test.
↓
２Diagnosed with ESFJ
↓
３ESFJ(Logic is１→３(Flow)
１Person B's characteristics are reflected in the test (Person B pays little attention to interpersonal relationships).
↓
２Diagnosed with INTP
↓
３INTP (Logic is１→３(Flow)

However, peopleReverse the order of logicThis can sometimes happen ↓

３Because I'm an ESFJ１Person A is very careful about interpersonal relationships.
[Logic is３→１[Flow]
３Because INTP１Person A pays little attention to interpersonal relationships.
[Logic is３→１[Flow]

However, this is not enough.Personality tests would imply that they determine your personality.

Let's correctly recognize cause and effect.

Such cognition is undesirable because it reverses cause and effect.。

OriginalCorrect cause and effect (cause → effect)teeth,

Cause: Person A has ESFJ traits → Result: Person AESFJ(It was determined that way.)
Cause: Person A possesses INTP traits → Result: Person BINTP(It was determined that way.)

However, it is as if,

Cause: Person A was diagnosed as an ESFJ → Result: Person AESFJThe elements of this were present (cause and effect are reversed).
Cause: Person B was determined to be an INTP → Result: Person AINTPIt possesses the elements of (cause and effect are reversed).

とBecause the person themselves may be under the illusion without even realizing it.is.

Therefore, the following statements end up being made:

”"That personESFJthat's why,They value relationships and are considerate (they are thoughtful, which is nice) [ESFJ's primary function isFe; extraverted feeling[developed = good at]
”"That personINTPthat's why,"You don't understand other people's feelings and you can't be considerate of their emotions (You don't understand other people's feelings and you're like a machine, which isn't good)" [INTP's fourth function = inferior functionFe; extraverted feeling[Underdeveloped = Not good at it]

This is sufficient for reversing cause and effect (confusing cause and effect).にI want to be careful and use psychology to benefit all aspects of my life.
