When it comes to the acronym of a personality type, is the psychological preference the same as the cognitive function? For example, the personality type INFJ has the preferences of Introversion, Intuition, Feeling, and Judging (which gives it the name INFJ). But, INFJ's have a dominant, auxiliary, tertiary, and inferior function of introverted intuition, extroverted feeling, introverted thinking, and extroverted sensing respectively. Does this mean that Introversion (the first word in the acronym) is the dominant function? Or that Intuition is the auxiliary function? Or is it that the dominant function is ONLY introverted intuition and that the auxiliary function is ONLY extroverted feeling? (If it is true with the last question) why isn't the acronym along the lines of NeFeTiSe? (Which is what makes sense because that is what the personality is in the first place!) Is the name given because the personality type leans more toward Introversion out of all of the four functions? Because the personality type leans more toward Intuition? Because the personality type leans more toward Feeling? Because the personality type leans more toward Judging? I just need some clarification.. Ive been researching this topic for several days now and I can't quite distinguish the difference, or understand it for that matter.
