[edit] Typical characteristics

[edit] Yielding types

  • Protects resources: resources are taken for granted, whereas interests are adapted to them.
  • Does not like discovering others wanting own resources, and if a goal is not very clearly attainable, they go for "smarter" options.
  • Do not experience unnatural discomfort lending/borrowing money/material posessions, but prefer to keep ideas that they have to themselves, being a little bit more private.
  • Do not like conflict, avoid direct confrontations, yield to others for a turn, act courteous, and give high priority to interests of others.
  • Prefer smaller groups of people, do not like loud sounds, and are very attentive to details in people's attitudes and emotions.

[edit] Obstinate types

  • Protects interests : interests are taken for granted, whereas resources are adapted to them.
  • Own goals views as depending on careful planning and luck, leaving things that cannot be done now to times when things look better, keep on going to their aims or stick to their views no matter what, are stubborn, and hate others planning their time for them with alien interests.
  • Freely shares all of the information that they have seen, gathered or concluded, but are extremely protective when it comes to their personal possessions.
  • When in proximity to others, judge by how others hold themselves physical superiority/status-wise, often have trouble giving way, like to be in large groups and tolerate loud sounds pretty well/may not hear small audial details as well though, require significant expression on your behalf in order to notice changes in your humor as well as how you feel about things and people.
