Cognitive Functions

Based upon the Jungian personality theory, the test suggests that personality is composed of a number of different cognitive functions. These functions can be focused primarily outward (extraverted) or inward (introverted). Each of these functions relate to how people perceive the world and make decisions.

The dominant function is the most prominent aspect of personality, while the auxiliary function plays a supporting role. The tertiary function has a weaker influence, but can become more apparent when a person is under stress. The inferior function is primarily unconscious and is often a point of weakness.

Developing this aspect can help people form a more balanced personality.

Inferior: Extraverted Thinking

  • This is an ENTJ preferred function and is expressed through the way they make decisions and judgments.
  • They have a tendency to speak first without listening, making snap judgments before really taking in all the information pertaining to a situation.
  • While they tend to make snap judgments, they are also very rational and objective. They are focused on imposing order and standards on the world around them. Setting measurable goals is important.

Inferior: Introverted Intuition

  • People with this personality type are future-focused and always consider the possibilities when approaching a decision.
  • They are forward-thinking and are not afraid of change. They trust their instincts, although they may have a tendency to regret jumping to conclusions so quickly.

Inferior: Extraverted Sensing

  • This cognitive function gives them an appetite for adventure. They enjoy novel experiences and may sometimes engage in thrill-seeking behaviors.
  • Because their outward sensory focus, they also have an appreciation for beautiful things in life. They often enjoy surrounding themselves with things that they find attractive or interesting.

Inferior: Introverted Feeling

  • Introverted feeling is centered on internal feelings and values. Emotions can be difficult area for them, and they often lack an understanding of how this part of their personality contributes to their decision-making process.
  • When this aspect of personality is weak, they may find themselves feeling uncomfortable or awkward in settings where some type of emotional response is called for.
