    Can you help me understand my cognitive process test results?

    I took the Jungian cognitive processes test at Understanding the Eight Jungian Cognitive Processes / Eight Functions Attitudes and got the results below. They really interest me but I'm not quite sure where to start with them. I've been reading about all the different processes and how they work. I just don't really know what to do with this information! I'd like to learn more about Si and Te because they're so painfully underdeveloped. Other than that, I'd appreciate any feedback anyone can offer. I want to know what this says about who I am as a person and how I can grow.

    Cognitive Process Level of Development (Preference, Skill and Frequency of Use)
    extraverted Sensing (Se) ************************** (26.8)
    average use

    introverted Sensing (Si) ******* (7.2)
    unused

    extraverted Intuiting (Ne) ******************************************** (44)
    excellent use

    introverted Intuiting (Ni) **************************************** (40.9)
    excellent use

    extraverted Thinking (Te) *************** (15.3)
    unused



    introverted Thinking (Ti) **************************** (28.8)
    average use

    extraverted Feeling (Fe) ******************************** (32.8)
    good use

    introverted Feeling (Fi) ********************************************* (45)
    excellent use

    Based on your results, it's clear that, if the test is accurate with your functions, you use both of the N functions very well as well as both the F functions. You are a bit faulty in your development of the T functions, which is actually to be expected. An area you should probably work in is the S functions, especially Si. With Si as your last function, it'd be easy to say it's your inferior, or least natural function, which would make Ne your dominant function, and Fi your supportive, since it's very high. This would be ENFP.

    I don't think the test accounts for what your functions really are, though, at least naturally.

    Don't trust these as far as your "order" goes, as you need both external and internal functions to ...well, function. I think those tests will always have a bit of overlap and I think it exists in real life too. Meaning while there is order, there is also chaos within us.

    Let's see if I can rephrase this better today.

    As far as I know, the cognitive functions describe a person's way of processing and evaluating information. So they describe how one relates to the world. I would like to better understand the different ways of seeing the world as described by each function and what my test results tell me about how I do and don't process experiences and information. I will keep reading whatever I can find, but putting it all together is difficult for me right now and I'd appreciate any help in doing that. Like, I get that my strongest function is intuition, but what does that MEAN? Particularly since I use both a ton--I thought people generally only used one? Or am I not understanding results?

    And yes, I'm aware that personality tests are not definitive descriptors and that this test is not the be all and end all of cognitive functions. I think that I can use it as a helpful tool, however, and would like to explore how I can do that.

    Thanks!

    Everyone uses all eight functions every day of their life - we're not limited to one, two, or even four. What matters is what you find natural, what you've developed over time, and what you find unnatural - and, there's a lot of overlap in those areas. It might help you to figure out the differences and activities of the perceiving and judging functions.
