In the given list functional types are systematized by means of 16 tetragrams
of a canon of changes IChing and correlated to numbers of a magic square, namely
tetragrams IChing and numbers are serial designations which organize functional
types in strict mathematical system, that is necessary for the analysis of
transaction of mental functions (for the analysis of psychological interactions
between functional types).
The information on transactions of mental functions, and also the information
about tetragrams IChing and numbers of a magic square look in the other section
of this site: transactions.

Unobvious logic function is harmonized with obvious ethical function.
Unobvious sensory function is harmonized with obvious intuitive function.
The common feature of functional types 1st, 9th, 5th, 13th are equally dry
and wet, and equally cold and hot psychological properties, and also equal
perception of space, time, energy, matter. But these functional types have
distinctions as have different combinations of obvious and unobvious mental
functions. Namely obvious mental functions are determining for harmonization of
unobvious mental functions and consequently are main, and as a result
psychological properties of a man have qualities which correspond to obvious
mental functions:
- psychological properties are hot and dry if ethical function is obvious;
- psychological properties are hot and wet if sensory function is obvious;
- psychological properties are cold and wet if intuitive function is obvious;
- psychological properties are cold and dry if logic function is obvious.
In particular functional type 1st has qualities of elements of earth and
elements of water as logic and intuitive functions are obvious; functional type
9th has qualities of elements of fire and elements of air as ethical and sensory
functions are obvious; functional type 5th has qualities of elements of earth
and elements of air as logic and sensory functions are obvious; functional type
13th has qualities of elements of fire and elements of water as ethical and
intuitive functions are obvious. Provided that prevalence of elements is shown
insignificantly in psychological properties as unobvious mental functions are
harmonized with obvious functions.
But it is necessary to take into account psychological directions of a person,
namely if the man has active extraversion then hot qualities of elements are
amplified, and if the man has active introversion then cold qualities of
elements are amplified. If the man has obvious extraversion or obvious
introversion then psychological properties equally cold and hot.
Psychological directions of a person, and in essence different kinds of
extraversion and introversion, it is necessary to take into account in each of
16 functional types, namely it is necessary to take into account that each
functional type unites some psycho-types.
Functional type 3rd.

Unites contrast psycho-types: 49. |
Passive logic function is subordinated to active ethical function.
Passive intuitive function is subordinated to active sensory function.
Psychological properties dry and hot, and also wet and hot, namely the man of
this type can be dry and hot if active ethical function is shown, or can be wet
and hot if active sensory function is shown. Namely for the man qualities of
fire elements and air elements are peculiar.
The rational perception of the world is caused by categories of figurative
energy and generalized matter.
The irrational perception of the world is caused by categories of concrete space
and valid time.
We admit:
- according to the category of generalized matter the man prefers a fine arts in
which objects are represented in general, and details of objects are not traced;
- according to the category of figurative energy the man prefers a fine arts in
which emotional impressions are expressed, and does not consider symbolical
(sign) art;
- according to the category of concrete space the man considers a flat
(two-dimensional) image and does not commensurate the represented objects with
three-dimensional perspective of a picture;
- according to the category of valid time the man sees a static situation and
does not assume development of the plot represented in a picture.

Passive ethical function is subordinated to active logic function.
Passive sensory function is subordinated to active intuitive function.
Psychological properties dry and cold, and also wet and cold, namely for the man
qualities of earth elements and water elements are peculiar.
The rational perception of the world is caused by categories of sign energy and
detailed matter.
The irrational perception of the world is caused by categories of abstract
(systematic) space and potential time.
We admit:
- according to the category of detailed matter the man prefers a fine arts in
which details of objects are traced, and does not pay attention to the general
outlines;
- according to the category of sign energy the man prefers symbolical art in
which searches for semantic values, and does not consider impression;
- according to the category of systematic space the man commensurate the
represented objects with perspective, namely the man considers three-dimensional
perspective of a picture;
- according to the category of potential time the man considers the plot of a
picture as existing in development, namely the man assumes events which can take
place according to the represented plot or preceded a plot.

Passive logic function is subordinated to active ethical function.
Passive sensory function is subordinated to active intuitive function.
Psychological properties dry and hot, and also wet and cold, namely for the man
qualities of fire elements and water elements are peculiar.
The rational perception of the world is caused by categories of figurative
energy and generalized matter.
The irrational perception of the world is caused by categories of abstract
(systematic) space and potential time.
We admit:
- according to the category of generalized matter the man perceives an art plan
of the sculpture and does not pay attention to materials of which the sculpture
is made;
- according to the category of figurative energy the man perceives composite
ratio, and in particular poses or emotions according to which composite ratio
are expressed;
- according to the category of systematic space the man perceives interrelations
of the sculpture with environmental objects, and in particular considers
reference points of space according to which the sculpture is located, as if
sees the order in arrangements of Stonehenge or stones of the Japanese garden;
- according to the category of potential time the man perceives an attitude of
the sculpture to this or that epoch.

Passive intuitive function is subordinated to active sensory function.
Psychological properties dry and cold, and also wet and hot, namely for the man

The rational perception of the world is caused by categories of sign energy and

The irrational perception of the world is caused by categories of concrete space
and valid time.
We admit:
- according to the category of detailed matter the man estimates quality of a
material of which the sculpture is made, and does not estimate an art plan which
is embodied in the sculpture;
- according to the category of sign energy the man considers accuracy of
proportions and does not consider composite ratio of elements of the sculpture;
- according to the category of concrete space the man considers aesthetic
properties of a sculpture irrespective of environmental objects;
- according to the category of valid time the man does not pay attention on a
time when the sculpture is made.
The common feature of functional types 3rd, 11th, 7th, 15th are contrast psychological properties as these functional types have qualities of contrast elements and have contrast perception of global categories. The perception of impressions and generalized images is mutually exclusive for detailed perception of sense in phenomena of the world around, and also the perception of concrete reference points and valid duration of time is mutually exclusive for perception of speculative projections of space and prospects of time.
