Project Overview - MBTI Study

This directory serves as a comprehensive study guide for the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) system, built incrementally based on user requests.

Objective

The overarching objective is to transform theoretical MBTI knowledge into practical wisdom, enabling the user to:

The study guide is structured as a series of Markdown files, intended to be read in numerical order for a progressive understanding:

01 - System Overview.md: A high-level introduction to the MBTI framework.
02 - The Four Dichotomies.md: A detailed exploration of the four preference pairs (E/I, S/N, T/F, J/P).
03 - The Cognitive Functions.md: A deep dive into the eight cognitive functions and their stacking rules.
04 - Function Dynamics and Relationships.md: An analysis of how functions interact within the stack (e.g., Dominant/Inferior axis, "the grip").
05 - Understanding the 16 Types.md: A central index linking to detailed profiles for each of the 16 personality types.
06 - The Roles of the Functions.md: A comprehensive breakdown of how each function's expression changes based on its position (Dominant, Auxiliary, Tertiary, Inferior) in the stack, including examples.

The Type Profiles/ subdirectory contains a detailed profile for each of the 16 types, built using a standardized template. These profiles focus on:

The type's cognitive stack in action.
Common strengths, weaknesses, and potential blind spots.
Practical identification tips and communication strategies.
Guidance on building various types of relationships (colleague, friend, romantic).
Insights into how to "reach their heart" by understanding their vulnerable functions.
Common mistypes and distinctions.
A section for personal "Known People" examples.

Completed: A deep dive into the different Cognitive Functions and their specific roles depending on where they are in the stack (e.g., the difference between Dominant Ni and Tertiary Ni). (Covered in 06 - The Roles of the Functions.md)
