What of these other fours?
 Post appears BELOW Table of Contents.
 This blog focuses on similarities between others' four-folds, tetrads, tetrachotomies, and mine, and includes links to online information on others’ fours in their own terms. It results from overgrowth of an old post at The Tetrast "What of these other fours?".

Jung's four functions of consciousness
Carl Jung's four functions of consciousness — sensation & intuition, and thinking & feeling. There isn't a correlation. Despite their opposition, sensation and intuition are closer to each other than thinking and feeling are to each other. I don't want to get complicated here but, for various reasons, it doesn't seem a good, systematic fourfold. However I'm disinclined to judge it as a philosophical product; it is the work of a psychologist of homo sapiens, a psychologist, moreover, whom I haven't read in decades. In any case, it is hardly without value. I don't go along with the ESP stuff, but the difference between intuition (even minus actual ESP) and sensation is significant both on its own account and as an instance possibly of a pattern.
