Select Small Group

(Introversion + Pragmatism + Affective Viscosity)↑R ↓E

Group Description

Isolation from the large external world, its problems, passions, tensions, and social currents; maintaining a small world of established close relationships. Critical analysis of all participants in these relationships, especially newcomers, ethical examination of their personalities. The desire to know close ones as well as possible to manipulate their weaknesses, in order not to let go of them (Central), or to better adapt to their needs, become indispensable, and thus maintain the relationship system (Peripheral).

Focused on protecting their private world from external encroachments, tends to exaggerate the value of established close relationships for all parties involved and underestimate the importance of being part of the larger external world. This often leads to increased tension between close ones, especially if they demand emancipation and separation from relatives. Incorrectly established distances also sometimes cause self-blame and depressive states in the confidential types, directing them towards inert Fx.

Hiding one's real mood, desires, etc. - with the aim of maintaining neutrality in the eyes of others (and thereby freedom for maneuvering).
