In each of the four scales, every person usually has a preference for one of the two opposite choices (designated by a letter). This does not mean that they do one at the exclusion for the other - most people go both ways depending on the circumstances.
Most people usually do have an overall preference. Where a person does not perceive of a clear and resounding preference, the letter 'X' is used to designate this "I don't know" condition.
Important note: The following scale descriptions are major simplifications of complex descriptions presented by Jung.
- Energizing - How a person is energized:
Extroversion (E)- Preference for drawing energy from the outside world of people, activities or things.
Introversion (I)- Preference for drawing energy from one's internal world of ideas, emotions, or impressions.
In a deeper sense, energizing is only one facet of this scale -- it is really a measure of a person's whole orientation towards either the inner world (I) or the outer world (E).
- Attending - What a person pays attention to:
Sensing (S)- Preference for taking in information through the five senses and noticing what is actual.
Intuition (N)- Preference for taking in information through a "sixth sense" and noticing what might be. Jung calls this "unconscious perceiving".
- Deciding - How a person decides:
Thinking (T)- Preference for organizing and structuring information to decide in a logical, objective way.
Feeling (F)- Preference for organizing and structuring information to decide in a personal, value-oriented way.
- Living - Life style a person adopts:
Judgement (J)- Preference for living a planned and organized life.
Perception (P)- Preference for living a spontaneous and flexible life. An alternative definition of this scale is Closure - whether or not a person likes an open-ended lifestyle.
