ILE are relatively better at assessing the emotional atmosphere occurring in a group or during an activity than IEE.
When meeting someone knew, ILE are not as likely as IEE to perceive "getting to know somebody" as a special kind of activity. ILE know very well whey they are getting acquainted (i.e., what the purpose of the relationship is, be it business, personal, travel, etc.). ILE, in contrast with IEE, do not divide the process of getting acquainted into consecutive stages; rather ILE immediately establish the necessary emotional distance in contact and can regulate it if needed. To bridge the gap between poorly acquainted people in a group ILE amp up the emotional tone; this can be mutually experienced happiness or misfortune. The name and title of the person are of secondary relevance to ILE and their relationship with the other person.
IEE are more likely to believe in objective truths than ILE. That is, IEE are more likely to believe there is a correct or best way of doing something than ILE.
ILE are more inclined to believe there are relative truths than IEE. That is, this relativity is perceived by ILE as an extenuation of the differing beliefs, opinions, intentions, etc. of each person.
When something is perceived by IEE as being incorrect, they are more likely (than ILE) to tell the person who made the error what they did wrong and how to do it the right way. IEE are focused on who made the error and helping them to correct the mistake.
When something is perceived by ILE as being incorrect, they are more likely (than IEE) to ask why it was done that way. Instead of necessarily trying to correct the person who made the error, ILE attempt to understand the person's reason for their decision/action.
IEE tend to internally combine emotional exchanges with other activities rather than separating them out like ILE. E.g., IEE see having fun occurring simultaneously with other activities, such as work or even serious affairs. ILE are more likely to internally separate out having fun with other activities, although the two can be interchanged at a high frequency.
The "comparison and verification of concepts" is a more common phenomenon among ILE than IEE. This comparison not only concerns ILE methods, but also their understanding, terminology, etc. ILE are attuned to the fact that different people might understand and interpret different concepts and terms differently. They perceive terminology as well as actions of other people as part of the subjective concept inseparable from personal opinion, position, intent, etc. In contrast to IEE who perceive terminology as "objective," ILE understand personal differences behind terminology (this applies even to well established terms) and they attempt to compare and verify them.
IEE are not as inclined to compare and verify concepts as ILE. IEE assume that these can have only one unique interpretation (the "correct" interpretation), and IEE often do not think about the fact that the other person may be interpreting them differently. Much more than ILE, IEE apply concepts such as "objective reality," "unequivocal facts," and de-emphasize concepts; IEE consider that they know the "right" way of doing things, how something "truly is," etc.
IEE are more likely (than ILE) to use special rituals or other culturally accepted formalities when forming relationships with others. What that means is that the emotional proximity and relationship status for IEE be more externally predetermined. Additionally, IEE generally progress in relationships through stages, and therefore are more familiar with these stages than ILE. IEE tend to be more linear in their relationship progression than ILE, and IEE assign importance to the formalities of recognizing the start and end to each of these stages.
ILE are more likely than IEE to perceive and distinguish themselves primarily through personal qualities. ILE focus on individualism more than IEE.
ILE attitude towards a specific person (more so than IEE) is based on their personal characteristics (authority, intellect, personal achievements, etc.) ILE recognize superiority of certain individuals drawing from their personal qualities
IEE, more than ILE, frequently perceives and defines themselves and other people through group associations. IEE focus on collectivism over individualism.
When IEE form opinions of others, these opinions are formed under the influence of their attitude towards the group to which the person belongs. To IEE, it is incomprehensible how it is possible to belong to two opposing groups at the same time:, i.e., "you're either with us, or with them and against us."
IEE are often able to form quicker opinions of others they have just met than ILE. This is based on the ability of IEE to draw conclusions about the person based on the groups the person belongs to; ILE are more reluctant to make these inferences.
ILE are more likely to make decisions based on logical reasons than IEE, who are more likely to make decisions based on their own feelings.
IEE are often better at solving and minimizing interpersonal problems, where as ILE often struggle understanding them.
ILE are often more interested in studying systems, structures, and functionality than IEE.
IEE tend to prefer using persuasion as a means of convincing others to do something, where as ILE prefer to use argumentation as a means of convincing others.
IEE are more vulnerable to logical manipulation than ILE. However ILE in contrast, are often more vulnerable to emotional or ethical manipulations than IEE.
ILE place greater value on their interests than IEE. For example, ILE will maintain high levels of energy and focus on an interest they value, even deprioritizing their other resources to maintain the interest. For example, ILE may spend a large amount of energy on an interest they value, often to the detriment of their time, sleep, relationships, money, etc.
IEE place greater value on their resources than ILE. For IEE, resources like their money, time, sleep, etc., fall into their "inner personal space," and the IEE will be more likely to deprioritize an interest if it starts to drain these resources too much.
When conversing, IEE types are inclined to communicate in the form of monologues, where each party has "its turn." Because of that they subconsciously attempt to transform a dialogue into a series of monologues. Conversely, ILE tend to prefer more of a question and answer style format.
IEE are more likely (than ILE) to seek new and novel experiences rather than returning to something already lived through. They will generally only re-read a book, re-watch a movie, or revisit the same place if they have forgotten it or are hoping to learn something new from it.
ILE are more likely than IEE to use "emotional anchors" that resonate with their internal emotional condition. These emotional anchors could be a book, a movie, a place, a song, etc. ILE use these anchors to strengthen their inner emotional state and thus will repeat the experience: e.g., re-reading a book, re-watching a movie, continually going back to a place to experience the emotions associated with it.
IEE pay more particular attention to aspects of a situation or plan that are insufficient or lacking. This can be interpreted by others as IEE having a negative assessment of various situations and events (.e.g, "the glass is half empty). On the other hand, ILE pay more attention to what is actually present in a situation, and this can be interpreted as an affirmative or positive manifestation of the surrounding world, situations, possibilities, and prospects (e.g. "the glass is half full").
When assessing an option or available choice, ILE tend to focus more on how the choice could benefit them (what it would potentially yield) than IEE would. On the other hand, IEE would be more cognizant of the potential risks and potential losses that may accompany the decision that ILE may unconsciously minimize.
When developing a plan of action or process, ILE tend to see themselves as "within the process"; they are immersed in it. Often because of this, they have more difficulty managing several plans at once. On the other hand, IEE tend to place themselves "outside of the process"; they dissociate from it. For them the process or situation is something external from themselves.
When working on a project, IEE experience more discomfort (than ILE) if the project does not have a clearly delineated end-goal or result. This happens because IEE have more difficulty monitoring and understanding how the project is developing than ILE because they are outside of the process.
