Model of the information metabolism

Scientific and technical revolution unites two tendencies: the building of qualitatively new production enterprises and qualitatively new approach to the use of working resources. In this situation the problem of psychological typologies acquires new importance.

To the attention of the readers I propose the typology, which Karl Gustav Young created and which I a little improved, using theory of information metabolism A. Kepinski. It gives the possibility to look at each individual as on the carrier of the specific social function, which depends on the type of its personality or intellect. The type of intellect determines the method, such as individual accepts information from the external peace and this information is subjected to what selection. On this the ability to manifest attention to one or other aspect of the external life depends: interests, the aspiration of individual, the directivity of his behavior, relation to other people.

Necessary condition of the functioning of any organism - double bond with the surrounding peace. From one side it is connected in the process of energy metabolism, i.e., in the chemical exchange of substances with the environment. From other side, through the process of information metabolism, into the sum of electro-magnetic phenomena. On A. Kepinski, the external information signals, which assumes the psyche, become similar to the food, which for the process of energy metabolism obtains organism, i.e., just as food it is necessary for 3m organisms, so information signals for FOR THEM psyche.

Reception and transfer of signals depend on the formation of energy pulses in the system, which picks up these signals. I.e., the process of information metabolism in the organism begins with the formation of small energy charges. So that the brain would function as the apparatus of information metabolism, it must be ensured constantly by the signals, obtained both from without, and from the organism itself. If the flow of these signals or information for some time ceases, the disintegration of psyche begins.

Each system, according to information theory, assumes only adequate to itself information. I.e., are picked up only those signals, such as itself can issue. The part of the signals is received more osoznanno. But also reveal the same signals also more osoznanno. For example, man, which does not note he speaks in what tone, is not turned attention also to the tone of other people.

It is necessary to group and to systematize the signals obtained from without. In the first group fall all dynamic processes, all moving. By each conscious and unconscious motion of men it reports to other not only, that it at present makes, but to a certain degree and that will make somewhat late. Another part of the signals - signals about the emotional states and the moods of people. These two groups of signals - signals about the dynamics: external and internal.

Information about the static phenomena also has two aspects. Each organism, first of all, - the object, which tries to avoid collision with other to it dangerous objects. Therefore it is necessary to assume and to give information about its external qualities. Simultaneously he feels the need for examine its own structure and structures of other objects, and thus to understand potential possibilities - its and strangers. These signals are also transferred, for example, by the color of face, by its mobility.

Thus, it is possible to say what do the man has, as in each living being, are four functions, or four abilities of adaptation to the external peace. This as four groups of the possibilities of man, which subsequently we will call extraversion and designate by the following symbols: , , , . The ability to gather information about the external processes we will conditionally call logic - , the ability to gather information about the internal processes, which occur in the internal peace of man - ethics - , the ability to have a precise information about the form and appearances of the surrounding objects - sensing - , and the ability to examine structure and potential abilities – intuition - .

Any form of information is processed by one of two methods: information about the objects and to their structure -

it is mastered against the background of the distance between them - (white logic) and against the background of their mutual attraction to each other - (white ethics). Information about the processes is comprehended against the background of time - (white intuition) and against the background of health - (white sensing). Thus, are four three-dimensional abilities or the skills of the psyche: the perception of distances , the perception of attraction- repulsion , the perception of time and the perception of health in the space .

It is possible to compile this table:

Symbols of the separate component parts of the perception
black		white
the property of the object		the property of the space
Action and motion		Distances
Enthusiasm, motivate to action		Attraction
Shapes and form		Status
Structures		Time

These abilities are inherent in entire living. Man is allotted by the fact that has not one, but sixteen types of personality. Therefore in the psyche of individuals with the different types of personality only some of these elements of perception take special position. Two of them prevail, creating so-called EGO. This is confirmed, when we, studying people, see how unequally they think, how many different versions of the very method of thinking exist during the solution of one and the same problem.

If we examine a question in the theoretically abstract plan, then in the brain with its functioning the displacement of energy charges occurs. Two rings of information metabolism (BY THEM), are formed, we represent figures at the end of the article.

One of these rings (static) receives and is processed information about the form of objects, their structure, attraction to other objects and distance between them. In this case the information starts both about the objects of external peace and about itself as object. This is - starting point for the analytical thinking.
The second ring assumes dynamic information, i.e., information about the internal motion in the object (including about the emotions) and a change of the place in the space. Against the background, as has already been spoken, health and in the context of time. This is - starting point for the synthetic thinking.

One of these rings (in the figure - upper) more active, another - is more passive. Therefore thinking some types BY THEM, predominantly, analytical, others - synthetic. It is interesting that people with the analytic- static thinking always know, what purpose they attain, and with the synthetics- dynamic thinking they are legible means for the achievement of the objective.

One element of active and one element of passive ring performs the role of the first in the number IM. when in the active, upper ring this role it belongs to white half-cycle - it is formed the introverted psyche, inclined to certain rastozhdestvleniyu with the external peace. When this role belongs to black half-cycle - we have the extraverted psyche of man, clearly inverted to the external, but not to the internal peace. First in both rings

always there are paired elements, for example,  and , or  and  ect.

In connection with the fact that the energy pulse can have one of two directions, and active ring are both rings, it becomes clear, why the types of personality sixteen: 4 x 2 x 2 = 16.

Active ring assumes information IT directly from nature and other environment. Including - social. Here there is very much independence. If man on them obtains orders and indications, then their correspondence to real vital situation is checked. In this ring and block EGO. Concerning 3GO- block, one should say that the individual on the basis of the information processed by it is inclined only to lead, but not to be subordinated.

The activity of passive ring in sotsiume is limited seemingly auxiliary role. Information in essence about itself and its activity. If in the active ring is a block EGO and SUPEREGO, i.e. - social personality and conscience of individual, then in the passive ring SUPER- ID - anti-conscience - the charge of man with respect to those surrounding for his insufficiently good health. And ID - block of the not very realized or insufficiently realized individual activity. This ring has a tendency to listen toward any directive information. If external activity does not be sufficient (activation), tendency toward the insufficient physical activity is formed. This causes psychosomatic disturbances.

Thus, integral intellect is formed from the people with sixteen types of thinking. This sixteen different and simultaneously equivalent parts of the social intellect of society. It is possible to say that the unit of integral human reason - this only together sixteen types of personality.

The function of individual in the society is determined by type and volume of intellect.

It is possible to speak about the social function of a role of each type of personality. First of all about the fact that some types fulfill the role of theorists, others - businessmen, the third are disposed poetic, are properly inclined only to poetries, the fourth are inclined to the power means of life. In some types the thinking is abstract, in others - concrete.

To each it is necessary to feel, that into its environment it introduces the contribution, which corresponds to a level of its intellect and type of personality. In my opinion man more easily transfers nedorealizatsiyu of his intellect, than to nedorealizatsiyu of the type of personality.

Note with the transfer: It is now known, for example, that the leading work worsens psychosomatic state in introverta and improves in ekstraverta. Introvert is inclined to the work, where it can appear its personal skills and merits, but not the talent of leader. The talent of leader are inclined to manifest with more or smaller success all ekstravertnye types personalities. For management by scientific research institutes best anything be suitable both intuitive- logical ekstratima. By industrial and agricultural enterprises, by especially large, and also different economic components in the state, as in the government, can lead both sensory- logical ekstratima. For the management of sociocultural establishments, up to the Red Cross and the society “knowledge”, both ethics- sensory. For the management of theatrical type organizations - ethics- intuitive ekstratimy.

We give below several models of the separate types of the personality:

1. Intuitive- logical extravert					2. Logico- intuitive extravert
				EGO					EGO
				SUPER EGO					SUPEREGO
				SUPERID					SUPERID
				ID					ID

---

3. Sensory- ethical intro-vert					4. Ethics- sensory intro-vert
				EGO				EGO
				SUPER EGO
