Sensing and Sensibility
Presented by Vicky Jo Varner
A majority of APTi members (and type enthusiasts) are said to have a preference for intuition. Perhaps for this reason, sensation is among the most poorly understood of the eight psychic functions as Jung identified them in his typology scheme. Many definitions of sensation found online are bunk, and it is frequently disrespected as a vital process.
During this interactive, multi-media presentation, we will bring you into better relationship with the sensation function. We will explore the sensing function in depth, including:
- What does sensation look like?
- What does sensation feel like?
- What does sensation contribute typologically?
- How did Jung define sensation?
- How do other type experts (such as John Beebe) define sensation?
- How do introverted and extraverted sensation differ?
- Why are sensation types sometimes hard to spot?
- How effectively does the MBTI identify sensation?
- How is sensation marginalized in the type community?
- Who are leading Jungians with preferences for sensation?
- How does sensation manifest in American culture?
Three Requests:
- Bring a handful of your favorite drawing tools (Sharpies, crayons, colored pencils).
- Wear comfortable clothing to move in.
- Wear a hat or headband – normal or silly.
