The 16×16 intertype relation matrix — socionics

THE 16×16 MATRIX

Find your type in the left column and read your row: each cell names the relation between you and the type above it, and links to a full write-up. Direction matters — supervision and benefit are asymmetric, so SV▸ in your row means you supervise them; ◂SV means they supervise you. 256 ordered pairs, every one its own page.

Swipe the table sideways — your row's type stays pinned on the left.
