in Function Analysis, Stereotypes
One of the big proofs of Si, or Introverted Sensing, that people look for is sentimentality. Most of the time, it’s the first question someone is asked when the possibility of Si is on the table. Unfortunately, there’s a flaw in using this as the primary source of evidence… Namely, we’re all human, and most […]

This isn’t going to be a very long article. It’s just something STPs and NFJs that I know tend to struggle with (including myself), so I thought it was worth putting out there.

By Mara on January 4, 2019INTJ vs ISTJ: 8 Differences

They both share the same extraverted function, which means that the key differences between the two lie in their introverted functions.
