On the Evolution of Logic: An Introduction to Cognietrics

Nootypology

There are also Nootypological Triads, though these represent social values.

Spiritualists (Givers)

MC - Believers

BR - Ambassadors

Materialists (Takers)

MR - Coaches

BC - Conquerors

Classicists (Conservative)

DT - Analysts

SF - Guardians

Progressives (Liberal)

DF - Idealists

ST - Inspectors

Operators (Skilled)

GF - Writers

AT - Technicians

Manufacturers (Influential)

GT - Architects

AF - Speakers

Activists (Liberating)

GD - Artists

AS - Warriors

Authorities (Controlling)

GS - Trainers

AD - Executives

Classicists are Governors, or Operating Authorities attempting to maintain the status quo, and Investors, or Manufacturing Activists pursuing the continuation of profitable projects. Progressives are Capitalists, or Manufacturing Authorities in competition, and Socialists, or Operating Activists looking for advancement.

Governors do not have Investor Ideal Matches and Capitalists do not have Socialist Ideal Matches, primarily because each wants to maintain or alter something in the opposite manner with respect to what the other party desires. These niches are useful in that the associated Nootypes would not otherwise get along, and so do not represent stagnation.

Ideal Match:

First Letter - opposite

Second Letter - opposite

Third Letter - opposite

Fourth Letter - same

Fifth Letter - opposite

Sixth Letter - same

Seventh Letter - L if L, I if E, E if I

The letter "L" does not change because leadership styles should not Complement each other; this would detract from either one as for the two Je or Fx Functions.

Generally, Nootypological Relationships improve as similar Functions to the Ideal Match move higher in the Order:

To calculate Compatibility Percentage:

For Ideal Match Functions:

A B C

D E F

G H I

J K L

M N O

P Q R

Set A = sqrt(18), B = sqrt(17), ... , Q = sqrt(2), R = sqrt(1).

To calculate the Compatibility Percentage for a Nootype with Functions:

N I C

J Q O...

Calculate (100/(18 + 17 + 16 + ... + 3 + 2 + 1))*(sqrt(5)*sqrt(18) + sqrt(10)*sqrt(17) + sqrt(16)*sqrt(16) ...).

Nootypological Functions correspond to Enneagram numbers. The order of influence of the Functions corresponds to the order of the numbers. I will explain it here, though like the Triads, it represents an evolutionary niche that gives only satisfactory control over a number of associated strategies.

The Main Function Order roughly corresponds to Enneagram Tritype.

Each number behaves as follows to balance the behaviors of the numbers immediately before and after it:

Balance of Forces

Je 1 Consultant - balancing mediation with campaigning.

Pe 2 Campaigner - balancing consultation with entrepreneurship.

Pl 3 Entrepreneur - balancing campaigning with individualism.

Pi 4 Individualist - balancing entrepreneurship with examination.

Oi 5 Examiner - balancing individualism with loyalty.

Oe 6 Loyalist - balancing examination with motivation.

Ol 7 Motivator - balancing loyalty with dare.

Jl 8 Darer - balancing motivation with mediation.

Ji 9 Mediator - balancing dare with consultation.

The Enneagram numbers represent strategies which the Nootype Functions assist. Wings represent an imbalance of tendencies that favors one force over the other. Introverted Functions correspond to withdrawn numbers, extraverted Functions correspond to compliant numbers, and leading Functions correspond to assertive numbers. Organizing Functions are located in the Head Center due to justifiability. Perceiving Functions are located in the Heart Center due to openness. Judging Functions are located in the Gut Center due to decisiveness. The middle of each Center suppresses it. Enneagram Tritypes choose a Head number, a Heart number, and a Gut number, with Wings, in any order. In Enneagram there are also Social (who are looking for approval), Sexual (who are looking for chemistry), and Self-Preserving (who are looking for material comfort) Enneagram Subtype Instincts, but they have no anticipated correlation to Nootypology. Moving forward numerically on the diagram is Challenging due to the independent influence of the next balancing force, and within a Center it is Maximizing due to the completion of the Center's influence. The forward direction shows increases in computational complexity: Organizing forces move from Generation to Achievement; Perceiving forces move from Sensation to Dreaming; Judging forces move from Feeling to Thought. The Bridging and Realizing directions allow receptivity to other ideas at a more basic level of familiarity.

Notice that not all Enneagram Tritype strategies exist as a Nootype; for instance, 1w9-2w1-6w5 corresponds to Fe Se Ge. While there are only 288 Nootypes, there are 1,296 Enneagram Tritypes, and for each Tritype there are six possible Instinctual Subtype Stackings. However, each correlation represents a niche and is not absolute, but can be useful. The strategies employed by the Enneagram Tritypes often require a fresh look and for that reason a Nootype will achieve more success with a Tritype that does not directly correlate to the Nootype Functions. For instance, I prefer to act as a 5w4-9w1-3w4 so/sp/sx, or Individualist Examiner, Consulting Mediator, and Individualist Entrepreneur, which while correlating to Designing, Aetiological, and Preparing strategies may be assisted instead by my Nootype's Statistical, Developing, and Solving Functions.

The complexity that is brought by increasing Enneagram numbers shows that:

Socialists Judge and Organize, or Perceive.

Capitalists Perceive and Organize, or Judge.

Investors Judge and Perceive, or Organize.

Governors Judge, Perceive, and Organize, or are completely open to new ideas.

You should now feel as though you have a solid understanding of each Type and its Relationships. Hopefully, what you have learned you will take with you so that it may serve you in your quest for knowledge and other related endeavors.

Happy Typing!
