For example, Arithmetic can affect Digit Span score and by applying rules
can interpret what seems to be "X" (in the middle). 364
Seems reasonable that there is a middle point - ambivalent E-I. 365
Everyone has possibilities of doing some I things and everyone has
possibilities of doing some E things - X says there is little or no
dominance. 365 366
Theoretical X is in conflict in E and I activity. 366
Conflict because it takes effort to block out the one direction in order to act the other. 367
Y conflict: person is a little bit bewildered (R) and a little bit confused (F) 367
An X, Y, Z very confused conflicted person - unlikely to exist. 368
Resolution of, for example X in XRA more likely to show up in what person is R or A than actually resolving X. 368
An X, Y, or Z can be focal point of interpretation. 369
X part of time need E type support and part of time I type support but all of the time need strong support. 369
Extreme case of XYZ is catatonic in sense the person is frozen. 370
Xc more tense than an Ec. 371
With Xc, high DSY more likely Ic and low DSY more likely Ec. 371 372
X has less ability to control whatever it is than a true I or E. Equal forces get immobility. 372
Discussion of whether I/X/E is normal distribution. Not known. 372 373
I+ or E+ get more pressure from the environment than ones in middle. 373
Hard for an X to become delusional like a true E determined to be an I. 374
X (or Y or Z) are more unpredictable. 374
Trouble adjustment: X and A - all things to all people. 375
X and A inability to feel guilt like, say, an E when having to do I tasks
feels guilty about being E. 375
With X, Y, or Z, some kind of complacency as complacency, confusion or
conflict - all can happen. 376
XYZ most productive people in a highly structured society. 377
XYZ in highly permissive society is lost. 377
XYs can be indifferent and learn role. Example is Chinese XY who
accepts cultural IR - e.g. coolie population in pre-Communist days. 377
Discuss a "survival of fittest" possibility with regard to non-XY in
highly structured environment like slave/coolie. 378
EF in an IR culture or an IF in an ER culture have hardest time adjusting.
378
Discussion of I child being comfortable with being on mother's back
in fields working for most of first year. In an ER culture, a non-responding
child at 10 months gets "help". 379 380
Also discussion of "touching daddy" difference in IR and ER culture
expectations. 379 380
Men holding hands in some cultures interpreted as abnormal but
for example in Philippine F culture is common show of friendship. 381
Also Russian E culture used to have more male hand holding. 381
Discussion of Russia tsarist world as more F-ish. 382
U tends to be xenophobic - learns what their culture expects - whatever
they do is the only way to do it. 383
Soviets and Chinese take their culture with them overseas. Communism
may exaggerate but it is a U thing. They don't include others in their
culture. 383
Soviet overseas more insular, American more involving - U vs. A cultures. 384
Example: Chinese communities anywhere open Chinese restaurants. 384
Japanese adapt more (IRA culture). 385
Chinese often say their culture is E when hearing the PAS. John
maintains they are thinking Ic - gregariousness vs. involving. 385
Living as close as Chinese do would be difficult to be an E culture. 385
