This video highlights model A as it is used in theory and practice of Associative socionics as well as some other important topics which were not widely discussed in relation to model A in socionics typology.

1. Model A in
Associative socionics
Model A structure, 16 CPTL model, Freud’s model,
Associative model, Chakra system.

2. Structure of Model A
Socionics was founded in the
1970s by a Lithuanian
pedagogue and economist
Aušra Augustinavichute.
A. Augustinaviсhute described
information metabolism of each
of the 16 personality types;
created a model A by giving
each functions a specific
symbol.

3. 3. Model A
(continue)
• In School of Associative socionics is used
slightly different presentation in a shape of a
butterfly which does not affect the meaning of
the model. The mental/conscious circle is
positioned on the left and the vital/subconscious
circle on the right.
• Don Quixote -ILE- ENTp. The
Innovator. The intuitive logical extravert.
Ne Ti – Ego; Fi Se – Superego; Si Fe –Superid;
Ni Te - Id.
Program Ne Ni Restricting
Creative Ti Te Background
Vulnerable Fi Fe Mobilizing
Role Se Si Suggestive

4. Logic-symbolic model
16 CPPT
The similarity of the arrangement of functions
in the CPTL model depicted in the document
of registration of the discovery of Aushra on
October 1, 1980 "The phenomenon of self-
organization of dynamic structures of
interpersonal interaction in human society."
CPPT - cooperating psychological personality

5. 8 Socionics functions & information aspects
Te – Business logics or applied logics – business grip, efficiency,
reasonableness, technology;
Ti – Structural logics or theoretical logics – abstract structure, system, scientific
theories;
Fe – Ethics of emotions – open emotional interaction, immediate emotional
reaction;
Fi – Ethics of relationship – relationships between the people, moral issues,
consciousness, and abiding by traditions;
Se – Volitional sensory, strength of character, physical strength: desire for
power, freedom, dominance, status, acquisition of property, perseverance;
Si – Perception sensing or sensory of sensations – harmony of spatial forms,
feeling of comfort and relaxation;
Ne – Intuition of insight and possibilities– the ability to appraise the internal
contents, potential abilities of the subject;
Ni – Intuition of doubt or intuition of time – premonition, forecast, ability to
detect development dynamics, poetical imagination, mystical feeling.

6. 6. The IM
model is
the EM
model
A. Augustinavichute Socionics. Publishing House Black
Squirrel 2008. Pages 77-80 Elements of informational
metabolism.
According to A. Augustinavichute, “energy metabolism is
also informational. Four EM cycles correspond to 4 IM
cycles. One without the other is impossible. "P. 79
“Since informational metabolism is only a reflection of
energy metabolism, we assign the same symbols to the
body-strokes of EM and IM.” p. 80
“The formation of blocks. As we have already agreed,
each organism has 8 stable parameters: four body -
strokes and four field strokes. Together, they form four
strokes of the EM, and therefore, four strokes of the IM.
Each EM stroke is reflected in a separate block of our
model of the IM mechanism, called model A. There are
only 4 such blocks. ” p.81

7. Association of functions with ENERGY
Aushra used to explain each act of physical activity of the body using an analogy of the processes
occurring in an internal combustion engine. She correlated functions with a certain type of energy and
either with the body (body stroke) or with the field (field stroke). Each information methabolism “IM”
stroke consists of one of the body stroke (extraverted function) and one strokeof the field (introverted
function).
Ne- potential energy of the body; Ni - gravitational field.
Fe - internal dynamics of the body; Fi - electromagnetic waves.
Se - kinetic energy of the body; Si - electromagnetic field.
Te - external dynamics of the body; Ti - gravitational waves.
Aushra refers to C. Jung saying that body stroke and field stroke form homogeneous pairs. For example,
Ti is a moment of Te; Fi – moment of Fe because Fe and Te reflect on dynamics and processes while Ti
and Fi belong to statics.

8. Commentary
on Jung's
typology and
introduction
to IM
Published: “Socionics, Mentology and Personality Psychology”, 1995,
No. 2,
repeatedly: Augustinavichute A. Socionics: Introduction. - SPb., Terra
Fantastica, 1998, p. 25 - 32.
“How and on what basis did Jung’s typology appear? In essence, this is
an improvement of the model of Sigmund Freud - ego - superego - id.
... .. Testing this model, Jung was convinced that most or even all of a
person’s relationship with animate and inanimate objects is
determined by the mental structure of people. That is, that these
relationships are different, and that the reason for this difference is
the difference in the mental structure of individuals. Therefore, using
relationships as a starting point, it is possible to construct not one, as
in Freud, but several models of the psyche, which Jung did.
.... It is interesting to note that what Jung called the first and second
functions is nothing more than the Freudian EGO. ”

9. Freud’s model of personality structure
In the personality structure described by S. Freud Id energy is
associated with the instinct of life and the god Eros. S.
Freud compared Id with a spoiled, selfish child who demands
the satisfaction of his desires "here and now."
S. Freud compared the energy of the Ego with a rational
judge who decides on actions.
The energy of the superego is responsible for the moral
development of the personality. Ego-Conscience punishes the
human ego for misbehaviour with guilt. The Ego-Ideal
promises a reward for good behaviour with a sense of pride
and self-esteem.

10. 4 types of
mental
(psychic)
energy - TPE
Aushra used the names of the components of the personality
structure of S. Freud for Model A and added another component -
Superid. Superid is the deepest part of the unconscious in Model A, by
analogy with the collective unconscious in the structure of C. Jung’s
personality.
The associative model describes the personality type structure of an
individual as an interaction of 4 types of psychic energy: Ego, Id,
Superego and Superid. http://socionics4you.com/post-410
Types of psychic energy correlate with components of the personality
structure of S. Freud. The semantic content of the archetype Shadow,
as described by C. Jung in his work on the collective unconscious,
largely determines the content of Superid energy.
A shadow is a source of creativity, but at the same time has a potential
and a tendency to destruction. This mental structure is inherited from
those times of human life, when all concerns were reduced to the
instincts of survival and the continuation of the human race. The
energy of Superid in the light of the concept of personality of Freud is
associated with that part of the unconscious that corresponds to the
death instinct and the god Thanatos.

11. FUNCTIONS AND
CHAKRA ENERGY SYSTEM
• The four types of psychic energy correlate with
temperaments, pairs of functions and the colours of
the chakras.
The seven chakras are the main energy centres in the
human body:
• Sahasrara or crown chakra (purple);
• Ajna or the “third eye” (dark blue);
• Vidshudha or throat chakra (blue);
• Anahata or heart chakra (green / pink);
• Manipura or solar plexus chakra (yellow);
• Swadhistana, or sacred chakra (orange);
• Muladhara, or root chakra (red).

12. Functions and colours
4 TPEs become associated with 4 components of Model A, 4 groups
of types as well as energy chakra system which lay the basis for a
new associative typology:
Ego-types – rational dynamic extraverts. Extraverted functions: Fe
(red) and Te (orange).
Id-types – irrational static extraverts. Extraverted functions: Se
(yellow) and Ne (green).
Superid-types – irrational dynamic introverts. Introverted functions:
Ni (blue) and Si (dark-blue).
Superego-types – rational static introverts. Introverted functions: Ti
(violet) and Fi (purple/pink).

13. Associative
model
The associative model has 4 positions to describe the
distribution of energy types in the human psyche.
1. Dominant
2. Сompensating
3. Neutral
4. Insufficient
The ranking of types of energies characterizes the type of
person from the position of basic dichotomies and is
called the type of psychodynamics. In the practice of type
diagnostics, I use only 6 types of psychodynamics
consisting of the first 2 positions of the model: the
dominant and compensating. The energy ranking can be
expanded to record a profile consisting of all 4 TPEs and 4
positions of the model. Then we get 24 options for various
types of psychodynamics.

14. 6 types of psychodynamics
The TPE psychodynamics - interactions of the 4 TPEs in the psyche - lay the foundations for the subtype theory
where people of the same type can be differentiated based on their type of psychodynamics:
1. Extraverted : Ego – Id and Id – Ego
2. Introverted : Superego-Superid and Superid-Superego
3. Rational: Ego – Superego and Superego – Ego
4. Irrational: Id – Superid and Superid-Id
5. Static: Superego – Id and Id – Superego
6. Dynamic: Ego – Superid and Superid – Ego
