Many have said in this forum that people often confuse I with N and E with S. Some have said that the lay person's definition of introvert and extrovert is more like N vs. S. I disagree with that. I think the lay person---or the mainstream idea--- thinks extroverts= normal; introverts= not normal/"withdrawn" & need to get out of their shells. Maybe there are different levels of understanding these terms. A person who confuses I with N and E with S is maybe "level 2", and one who knows the difference between the terms is "level 3".
I admit that I am probably at level 2, but I would like to get to level 3. It's easy to see why people can confuse the terms. Sensors are said to primarily deal with details and things that can be processed with their five senses---those types of things are "external". Intuitors are said to imagine possiblities and primarily deal with concepts and ideas----those types of things are "internal".
Do you think it's more likely that an Ne or Si dominate person would wonder if they are an introvert or extrovert? Are Se's and Ni's more "extreme"?
