What is the 4th cognitive function good for? How can each of the 16 personalities use their 4th function to their advantage without losing themselves? Jung warns against the dangers of one-sidedness in extroversion or introversion, and the 4th function is one method of safeguarding against one-sidedness.
John Beebe calls the 4th function our "inferiority complex" while Myers & Briggs refer to it like a child that shouldn't make the family decisions, but should be taken into consideration as an important member of the family. How can each of the 16 personalities use their 4th function while still maintaining integrity of identity of the 1st function?

FAQ:
Have you heard of the 8-function model?
Yes, I was introduced to the 8-function model in approx. 2015/16. I plan to make videos on it in the future, but I don't feel solidified enough in my understanding of how it works universally to feel comfortable teaching on it yet. However I have always found it interesting in my personal life, and I've been recently trying to develop Ti, which is not in my top 4. My Fe-polr video and my livestream discussing my type both showcase my interest in the 8-function model.
Have you heard of socionics, enneagram, tritype, vultology, 4 sides of the mind, interaction styles, OPS, or CPT?
Yes to all. As for socionics & enneagram, I have done a few collabs on my channel (those videos can be found on my playlist titled "Alexis On Other Channels"). I have read several books on those two topics. In addition to collabs, I have a few enneagram 5 videos on my channel, and one Fe polr video on my channel. The other systems I've heard of and studied on a surface-level. For one reason or another, none of these topics have interested me enough to discuss regularly on the channel.
