A1 By default Socionics interpretations are based on behaviours of mentally healthy individuals, so if there is a significant deviation from the established theoretical norms it could be considered as a problem. Over-activation of the hidden agenda for prolong periods of time can cause some serious mental problems. -- Admin
A2 by that do you mean that if an ENTP tries too hard to be loved, or an ENFP cares too much about factual accuracy, that is what causes problems? or do problems come from an ENTP being hated, or an ENFP consistently being wrong, etc? -- anonymous
A3 I don't know if Socionics can explain these things, but what I know is that Jung has talked about several neurosis and mental illnesses in his book:"Psychological types" using the attitudes and the functions. -- Complicater-Complexer, ISTp
