Inert Sensing / F + S

Contact Intuiting / I + T

Description

Large-scale, coarsened perception that immediately grasps the whole or main idea while ignoring minor details.

Weak and fleeting visual imagination.

Sensory drives, habits, and desires are inert, and often insurmountable (difficult to control).

Preference for large, long-term goals achieved in one or two big, risky leaps, a tendency toward generalization and stereotyping.

Accumulation of problems along Sensing functions. Instrumental problem-solving along Intuiting.
