Hi welcome to this week's edition of PHQ

questions from the personality hacker community.

My name is Joe Mark Witt.

And I'm Antonia Dodge.

And Addison, let's get right to our question today.

Hi guys, this may be a dumb question, but I was wondering if an INFP, because of the tertiary

function of memory, would be a more sensing-oriented pattern seeker, or seeing patterns that are a little more tied to

sensing than more purely abstract pattern-seeking than an ENFP. And would an

ISFP be more pattern-seeking sensor than more purely sensory detail-driven than an ESFP.

Likewise, would an ENTP have their tertiary harmony influence how their thinking decisions present outwardly more than an I-N-T-P would, or vice-versa, would an I-N-T-P be a more

sensing influenced intuiter than more purely abstract pattern-driven like an E&TP.

I mean this in the idea of subtle differences in the degrees of the influences of the tertiary

functions on the co-pilot.

In other words, would the 10-year-old functions give a little

more influence to the expression or flavor of the co-pilot? I know the three-year-old can

totally mess things up, but can the 10-year-old influence the skill and approach and

expression of the co-pilot in any useful way at all? Are there graduations

like this depending on the second and third functions? I read somewhere that ISFPs are the most

intuitive sensors and that INFPs like JRR Tolkien can put a lot of sensory

details into their intuitively driven stories.

I know you have been talking a lot about how the tertiary function can confuse self-typing

lately because you can get stuck unhealthily in the tertiary.
