Introduction to the World of Type Dynamics

As an introduction to the world of type dynamics, here are a few pointers on how to find a type’s favorite (dominant) process:

• You can find the favorite process in just three steps. If you think you need to use a calculator or multiply the temperature outside by your age or something, then you are overthinking it.
• Remember that when we refer to the mental processes, we are talking about the middle two letters of a four-letter type (ST, SF, NF, or NT).
• The other important elements to look at in determining a type’s favorite process are the first letter (E or I) and the last letter (J or P).
• Remember, the last letter doesn’t necessarily point to the favorite mental process. It does tell us which process a person extraverts—that is, expresses in the external world.
• When you put this information together, you get the eight favorite (dominant) processes: S_e, S_i, N_e, N_i, T_e, T_i, F_e, F_i

Stay tuned to get started on the three steps!
