A running record of significant changes to the site. Updated when something worth noting happens.
May 2026
15 May 2026 — Corrected several factual and consistency issues across the relation and function articles following two catches from a reader.
On the relation pages: the Conflict page was describing Infantile as "Alpha Rationalists and Delta Irrationals" and Aggressor as "Beta Irrationals and Gamma Rationals" (the correct categorisation is by S/N within quadra: Infantile is Alpha and Delta intuitives, Aggressor is Beta and Gamma sensors). The same paragraph also implied that conflict's romance style pairings produce the same dynamic as duality's, when in fact they are inverted — duality pairs Infantile with Careful and Aggressor with Victim, conflict and super-ego pair Infantile with Aggressor and Careful with Victim. The Semi-dual page claimed every semi-dual pair shares the same romance style combination as duals; in practice, only the four irrational pairs do — the four rational pairs (ESE–LSI, EIE–LII, LIE–EII, LSE–ESI) pair Careful with Aggressor or Victim with Infantile instead.
On the function articles: the "What Si does" section of the Introverted Sensing article only mentioned two of the four Ego-block types and was missing both SLI (position 1, leading) and LSE (position 2, creative); the "What Se does" section of the Extraverted Sensing article was missing LSI (position 2, creative). Both now name all four Ego-block types. The Extraverted Intuition article did not name any types in its "What Ne actually does" section, breaking the pattern set by the other seven function articles; an Ego-block paragraph covering ILE, IEE, LII and EII has been added.
14 May 2026 — Added the expert typing service to the highest-intent surfaces it was missing from: the type quiz result screen — with a stronger prompt when a result comes out tied or borderline — and the 16 type profile sidebars. The typing prompt on type, function and relation pages now sits above the previous/next navigation rather than below it. Quiz analytics flag borderline results so quiz-to-typing conversion can be tracked against result confidence. Typing call-to-action copy reworked site-wide to lead with price and turnaround.
11 May 2026 — Added IndexNow submission to the build. Every production deploy now pings Bing, Yandex, Seznam.cz and Naver with the full URL list so updates are picked up within hours rather than weeks. Google does not participate in the protocol.
11 May 2026 — Added topical cross-linking to type comparison pages and famous people profiles. Each comparison page now links out to all other compares involving either type and to other pairings sharing the same intertype relation. Each famous person profile now links to other notable figures of the same type. Stronger internal linking to help readers explore related material and improve organic discoverability.
April 2026
29 April 2026 — Corrected the direction of asymmetric relations in several places where the active and passive roles were the wrong way round: six type comparison pages had Supervision inverted (EIE/SEI, EII/ILE, EII/SEE, ESI/IEE, LIE/SLI, LSE/SEI); the Beta vs Gamma article on the Apple–Microsoft rivalry had Supervision inverted in its core thesis and has been rewritten with the correct direction (Beta supervises Gamma, not the other way round); and the compatibility checker was inverting the Benefaction direction in its result text.
26 April 2026 — Added a new Hub page — a single landing page linking out to every Socionics project I run, including Socion, Socionics World, the books, the Discord, the YouTube channel and the shop.
March 2026
23 March 2026 — The original Definitive Socionics Index (definitive-socionics.wikidot.com) was retired after nearly two decades. All material has been carried forward, revised, and expanded here. This site is now the sole home of that research.
21 March 2026 — YouTube channel created at @SocionicsInsight. Videos coming soon.

15 March 2026 — Published individual pages for 15 famous people, each with a typing rationale and supporting video.
14 March 2026 — Published all 136 type comparison pages — every possible pairing of the 16 types, with perspectives from both sides and a compatibility verdict.
9 March 2026 — Site launched at socionicsinsight.com with 284 pages covering the 16 types, 8 functions, 16 intertype relations, small groups, Model A, a type quiz, and an initial set of articles.
Changes to the type quiz are also tracked in the quiz changelog.
