breaking down the archetype ⬎

the archetype is composed of Fi, Ne, Si, and Te.

I = introverted.

N = intuition.

F = feeling.

P = thinking.

the first two functions that determine the INFP TYPE CODE ⬎

Fi Ne Si and Te.

the Ne and Fi within the INFP function make up for the two missing letters in the middle of the type code: I __P, because the two missing letters in the middle are the first two functions!

the Ne is the _N__because it is about extroverted intuition.

the Fi is the __F_ because it is about introverted feeling.

but what makes up the first letter in the code?

what makes up for the first letter in the code is the second letter to the strongest function for the archetype. and the strongest function for INFP is Fi and evidently the second letter is “i” which causes the function to now become from_ N F _to I N F _ .

but what makes up the last letter in the code?

you’ll have to look back at the first extroverted archetype in the entire code. and for INFP it is ⟶ Fi Ne Si Te the first extroverted function in the type is Ne, which is extroverted intuition.

Ne belongs to the perceiving function which displays the fact that the last letter to I N F _ will be I N F P.

ꨄ 𝐨𝐧 the other hand, an underdeveloped INFP finds it difficult to see logically if they feel emotionally overwhelmed, they can become childish, passive, and unfair until something goes their way.

ꨄ 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲'𝐫𝐞 the type of people who over-correct others; they like to start arguments, but some of them could like to throw stones and hide it behind their back. they hate the idea of not being successful but do nothing to give themselves a comfortable foundation that can help them become better.
