In Reply to: matching the Oldham types with Claudio Naranjo's E-types posted by Jan den Breejen on February 24, 2000 at 04:45:45:


: conscientious/obsessive-compulsive = E1 character
: self-confident/narcissistic = E3 character
: dramatic/histrionic = E2 character (other-directed)
[can be in E7]
: vigilant/paranoid = E6 substyle
: mercurial/borderline = E4 subtype (intensity, romantic, mood changes)
: devoted/dependent = E6-subtype
: solitary/schizoid = E5 subtype
: idiosyncratic/schizotypical = E5 subtype
: leisurely/passive-agressive = E9 subtype
[E6 too]
: sensitive/avoidant = E5 subtype
[more so E4]
: adventurous/anti-social = E7 subtype
: self-sacrificing/self defeating = E9 subtype
: agressive/sadistic = E8 subtype
: serious/depressive = E4 subtype
[E1 too]

I say Dramatic is E7 too, because they are creative, come up with ideas constantly, live to have fun, etc.

About the mercurial: I scored rather low on that type. I'm an E4. Yet a Mercurial person who is E4 would technically be the same type as me, and that doesn't seem right. When I see them as a type completely different from me, then it starts to make sense.

The Leisurely style seems to be kind of Six-ish to me. Also, some of the people described as Leisurely have been typed as Sixes by Riso. I would say for the most part, it's E9 but it's possible for an E6 to have a high score in it.

The reason I think the Sensitive style is E4, is because an E5 wouldn't be so fragile would it? They are very sensitive to criticism, and have difficulty expressing themselves...and E4s are usually self-conscious. See, the Solitary style matches well with E5s because Solitary people don't particularily care for companionship, they love being alone. The Sensitive on the other hand, WANTS to get closer to others. This sounds more like E4 than E5. There is also a strong E6 streak to them, as they are rather paranoid about "dangers" in the real world. They tend to be loyal and try not to upset anyone.

About the Serious style...I scored rather high in that, as did some other E4s on the Four Board. It seems to be a cross of E1 and E4. Since you are a 1w4, was that your highest type?


My scores, if you are curious...
Sensitive = 18 (highest possible)
Leisurely = 15.5
Idiosyncratic = 14
Serious, Solitary = 10.5
Devoted = 9
Vigilant/Adventurous = 8
Conscientious = 6.5
Mercurial/Self-Confident = 6
Self-Sacrificing = 5.5
Dramatic = 4.5
Aggressive = 3.5
