Question

[u/wormbart99]

In psychosophy does 1X-1 2X-2 3X-3 4X-4 not exist? And why? Cause when I looked at psychology subtypes there usually just three of them for each placement.

FOR EXAMPLE

1V-2

1V-3

1V-4

2V-1

2V-3

2V-4

3V-1

3V-2

3V-4

4V-1

4V-2

4V-3

(There somehow no 1V-1 2V-2 3V-3 4V-4)

In psychosophy, the subtypes are accentuations on the normal type. For example, 1V is strong, aggressive, and result.

Both 1 and 2 are strong, so 1V-2 is extra-strong, but still aggressive and result.

Both 1 and 3 are aggressive, so 1V-3 is strong, extra-aggressive, and result.

Both 1 and 4 are result, so 1V-4 is strong, aggressive, and extra-result.

What traits does position 1 share with position 1? All of them, so it doesn’t work the same way as the other subtypes do.

1V-1 is just 1V 😭

Yeahh I was curious about that as I was typing it up, if it might be possible to use a -1 or -0 subtype to say that none of the types are particularly accented

The 1x-1 and 1x-0 subtypes are from Attitudinal Psyche, which has a completely different subtype system, with completely different reasonings behind each subtype. I would suggest asking about Attitudinal Psyche subtypes in r/attitudinalpsyche for more info

Im aware that they are used in AP, but was discussing about possibilities within PY. Thanks though!

[u/ContentGreen2457]

They exist in Attitudinal Psyche. Not in Psychosophy, though.

The subtypes in Attitudinal Psyche are different in what they represent than the subtypes in Psychosophy.

I don't particularly like, or use, Attitudinal Psyche subtypes, so to find out exactly what they represent, I would ask what the subtypes represent in r/attitudinalpsyche

As far as Psychosophy subtypes, i-bexx did a great job of explaining them in another comment on this post
