INTUITION THINKING   INTROVERSION JUDGING

While thinking and thought span the intra- interpersonal and sciences domains, the bias is towards objectivity not subjectivity.

While individual's exercise judgement and the outcome of many decisions may be inconsequential, when situations are misjudged, the consequences can be very political, i.e. professional and legal. The overlaps here are many (as per the function of the MBTI) - in judgements that are adverse socially, for example, shame and embarrassment may also result.

Intuition is usually experienced in a person's 'gut' and yet despite this somatic reference it is a very subjective and humanistic quality. In clinical contexts it is interesting when a colleague or a team try to make sense of this in terms of action to take.

This interplay between subjectivity-objectivity, personal-other, quality-quantity and other dichotomies are inherent in Hodges' model.
