Despite a dislike for reading, My Melody created the YouTube channel to help people with styling, emphasizing her love for fashion and shopping.
01:00 - 01:30: Criticism of Personality Tests The chapter discusses various personality theories, including the popular Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and the alignment scale, such as lawful good and chaotic good. It emphasizes that these are not the only existing personality theories but are part of a broader range of theories available.
01:30 - 02:30: MBTI Basics and Function Stacks The chapter introduces the basics of MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) and discusses the prevalence of personality tests on the internet, such as the 16 personalities test. It highlights the issue that many of these tests often provide inaccurate results regarding one's personality type.
02:30 - 03:30: Explaining the Cognitive Functions (Introverted Feeling) In this chapter, the video begins by promising a discussion on determining oneβs MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) type. The following videos are mentioned to provide guidance on styling yourself based on your MBTI type. Initially, the basic idea of MBTI is explained, which is a personality theory that explores different personality types. The interpretation and utility of this theory are set as the focal points of understanding one's personality through various cognitive functions, including Introverted Feeling.
03:30 - 04:30: Explaining Cognitive Functions (Extroverted Feeling) The chapter discusses the concept of cognitive functions in the context of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Each MBTI type is made up of four cognitive functions that form a function stack, which includes a dominant function and an auxiliary function, among others. There are eight cognitive functions in total across the MBTI types, and each function stack plays a distinct role in shaping an individual's outlook and behavior.
04:30 - 05:30: Explaining Cognitive Functions (Introverted Thinking) The chapter titled 'Explaining Cognitive Functions (Introverted Thinking)' delves into the intricacies of cognitive functions, specifically focusing on the dominant, auxiliary, tertiary, and inferior functions. It underscores that the dominant function is pivotal in shaping our personality, operating continuously on an unconscious level. The auxiliary function complements the dominant function and is the second most utilized function in our daily lives.
05:30 - 06:30: Explaining Cognitive Functions (Extroverted Thinking) Extroverted Thinking is discussed as a cognitive function that, although present within us, is not as dominant as the primary function. It maintains a strong influence but is overshadowed by the dominant function. The tertiary function is also mentioned, indicating its presence, albeit less prominently, compared to the stronger functions. The function is described as noticeable even if not frequently in use.
06:30 - 07:30: Explaining Cognitive Functions (Introverted Intuition) The chapter introduces the concept of an inferior cognitive function, specifically focusing on how it is the least utilized function. It is mentioned that this function typically surfaces during stressful situations. The chapter sets the stage for exploring various cognitive functions in depth.
07:30 - 08:30: Explaining Cognitive Functions (Extroverted Intuition) The chapter introduces the concept of cognitive functions within the MBTI framework, specifically focusing on Extroverted Intuition. It encourages readers to evaluate their personal connection and alignment with each of the eight cognitive functions by rating their relatability on a scale from one to ten.
08:30 - 09:30: Explaining Cognitive Functions (Introverted Sensing) This chapter discusses the cognitive function of Introverted Feeling (Fi) in the context of the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) framework. It is explained that people with dominant Introverted Feeling are often very individualistic, focused on their personal values and feelings. They tend to be very 'dageny' (unique or peculiar) and romantic, living in their own little world.
09:30 - 10:30: Explaining Cognitive Functions (Extroverted Sensing) This chapter focuses on individuals with high Extroverted Sensing (Se) and their characteristic behaviors, including romanticizing things and maintaining a strong sense of idealism and sensitivity. These individuals often have a strong sense of morality and are perceived as 'crybabies' because of their emotional sensitivity. They also have high internal sensitivity towards themselves compared to external influences.
10:30 - 13:30: Determining Your Function Stack and Conclusion This chapter covers the determination of one's function stack, particularly focusing on the role of introverted feeling (Fi) and extroverted feeling (Fe). It highlights the characteristics of individuals with a dominant Fi, who are notably creative and expressive, and those with a high Fe, who are generally empathetic. Despite the abstract terminology often likened to chemistry, the chapter reassures that the discussion does not delve into chemical science.
the basics to mbti and cognitive functions ! // find out your mbti type Transcription
00:00 - 00:30 hi my name is aishi I am 14 years old I'm almost 15 and I've created this YouTube channel for my personal project yes let's do speed run of about me totally did not trip okay my favorite color is pink my favorite cartoon
00:30 - 01:00 character is My Melody I love sugary stuff and baking but these are salt and pepper shakers I just keep in my room my favorite subject is English but I hate reading I can't commit to it and lastly I love fashion and shopping which is why I created this YouTube channel now that you know me well enough why don't I tell you what this video is gonna be about so the whole purpose of my channel is to help people style
01:00 - 01:30 themselves based on their personality or specifically their personality types I'm sure you've heard of theories like mbti maybe you've heard of like the alignment skill like lawful good um neutral evil or chaotic good or stuff like that those two are actually personality theories but those are not the only personality theories to exist the list is quite
01:30 - 02:00 endless however in this video I'm going to be focusing on mbti so personality tests are all over the internet I'm sure you've probably seen 16 personalities if not you can Google it right now but there are so many personality tests the problem with these personality tests however is that most of the time they give you an inaccurate result of your personality type and that's so boo foreign
02:00 - 02:30 basically in this video I'm going to be discussing how you can find out your mbti type and in the next two videos I'll be discussing how you can Style Yourself based on your mptr type so first let me tell you the basics mbti stands for Myers Briggs type indicator or in some cases people write type inventory and basically it's a personality theory that discusses your
02:30 - 03:00 outlook on the world each mbti type includes four cognitive functions and in the world of mbti there are eight competent functions each nvti type has a function stack and each function stack consists of the four cognitive functions I told you guys about so the four cognitive functions vary in each mbti type but they each play a different role so a normal function stack consists of a dominant function an auxiliary function
03:00 - 03:30 a tertiary function and an inferior function the dominant function is the function that's always in use so like unconsciously we just it's like our normal personality it's it's just what our personality is mainly made up of so dominant functions are used like all the time throughout the day you're gonna see it all the time as it's our main personality and then the auxiliary function is the second most used
03:30 - 04:00 function so now this function is present in us but it's not as uh as the dominant function it's not always in use so it's it's very strong but not as strong as the dominant function then the tertiary function comes it's not that's prominent or strong compared to the other two functions but it is very noticeable as in it's not that in use but you know
04:00 - 04:30 it's there and then the last function is the inferior function so this is the cognitive function that we use the least that we I usually identify with really less and it only we only really use it in times of stressful situations okay yeah now let's get on to telling you about the actual wonderful cognitive functions
04:30 - 05:00 [Music] okay I'm sorry I love cognitive functions MBT I know okay so I'm going to be discussing all eight cognitive functions and I want you to make note of how much you relate to each cognitive functions on a scale of one to ten and what parts you relate to
05:00 - 05:30 most so the first cognitive function we will be discussing is introverted feeling AKA F5 so in mbti it's like f i feeling introverted but it's like introverted feeling you get it yes people with dominant introverted feeling are usually very individualistic they're very dageny and they're in their own little world they're very romantic
05:30 - 06:00 people Romanticism they always see the beauty in things and they romanticize things a lot they're also idealists who are very very sensitive they're labeled as crybabies and yeah another factor with people with high ethi is that they have a very high sense of morality so they have a strong sense of morals and they typically stick with them like you cannot shake that people with high fi are more sensitive to themselves rather than their
06:00 - 06:30 surroundings or the people around them people with Fi are also very very creative and usually people with Fi have no trouble expressing themselves they're always expressing themselves the next cognitive function is extroverted feeling or Fe I know this sounds like chemistry but don't worry it's not chemistry is Boo boo chemistry people with high extroverted feeling are typically very empathetic
06:30 - 07:00 they're very sensitive to the needs of others and they're always the first ones to help out like my goodness they're the Sweethearts people with extroverted feeling are highly dependent on validation to get by and they love doing acts of service for others people with extroverted feeling are typically very social they have a strong will to fit in to get that validation that they crave rather than sensitive to their to the needs of
07:00 - 07:30 themselves they're sensitive to the needs of others so sometimes this can turn into self-neglect while overly focusing on the needs of others okay so the negatives of fi is probably that they can be selfish and caught up in their own little world probably not focused enough on the needs of others while Fe focuses too much on the needs of others so now let's move on to the thinking types let's start with ti introverted thinking people who have high or dominant TI are very logical
07:30 - 08:00 they have their own little internal framework in their head and collect data and knowledge based on their research or experiences they're very quick thinkers and they're also insanely analytical they're independent and objective and they're critical thinkers they're consistent and thorough with basically whatever they do but they can also be extremely lazy and procrastinate things a lot people with high TI move
08:00 - 08:30 from Theory to Observation people with high TI value logic and are always open to new theories as long as you've got evidence the next cognitive function is TE so t e is like the girl boss okay so some key points about te is person with high t e is probably like the group leader of group projects they're always structured they know what
08:30 - 09:00 they're doing they they've got their voice over everyone else's so people with high te they're very structured and logical and they have a strong external framework so their ideas are very highly involved with what's around them like the people or the things rather than TI whose internal framework is based on their observations and research people with extroverted thinking highly highly prioritize efficiency
09:00 - 09:30 organization and and responsibility they love to take charge because they they've got their head in the game they literally know what they're doing they're like I got this they display high amounts of leadership and it's not typical to see a person with high te setting goals all the time they're assertive and analytical they typically move from observation to Theory unlike TI which moves from Theory to Observation the next function we have is
09:30 - 10:00 and I are introverted intuition so some points about ni is that they're also very analytic analytical and theoretical people with NI are really good at reading people and they have been stereotyped as the psychics of the mbti community people with NI are also very future oriented and intuitive and they're also quite dreamy not to be confused with daydreamy although very precise in work people with I usually prefer the big picture over small tiny details people with high ni are very
10:00 - 10:30 reflective and they always trust their gut they are also described as wise the next cognitive function we have is extroverted Intuition or any people with high energy are very very creative they've got their head in the clouds and their mind is the complete mess they're very Theory focused and always have ideas or thoughts racing throughout their head they're always questioning things and thinking of future possibilities people with any are probably either very good speakers as in
10:30 - 11:00 debate or they're very artistic people with high energy are typically very daydreamy they're really good at coming up with solutions to problems although they get distracted easily the next function we have is introverted sensinger SI people with high SI are extremely past oriented people with high essay pay attention to the small details and are extremely observant they're definitely not the big picture person people with SI love following routine as
11:00 - 11:30 it makes them feel more familiar and comfortable and are highly dependent on their memory to guide them rather than focused on intaking new facts they're focused on applying their past knowledge and the data gathered from their experiences an example of Si is storing information from past experiences and implementing that information in present situations the final cognitive function out of the eight is extroverted sensing or known as SE people with extroverted
11:30 - 12:00 sensing are known as the life of the party like oh my goodness when you're with them it's never boring they're very spontaneous and also fixated on their external environments they are focused on what's Happening Here and Now people with high SC are known to be very athletic and engaging they're known as the Risk Takers out of all cognitive functions okay so now that we've finished discussing all the cognitive functions I want you to go over how you've rated each cognitive function and
