=== Assertions that Rmcnew has been seeking credible sources === | |||
I have been seeking credible sources for socionics theory. I admit that the majority of comparisons between socionics and hermeticism could correctly be labeled origional research, on part because there are no credible admissions that can be sourced for inclusion into the article. Therefore, I have ceased to include in the article any non-socionic related sources to that effect. Nevertheless, methods that have extreem similarity to hermetic and new age philosophy, includeing references to chakras and hinduism do exists in socionics theory and can be sourced credibly. Therefore, sources have been sourced quoteing this within the article. | |||
I disagree fundamentally with those who claim that socionics has no esoteric connections, and that I believe that socionics from a general foundation is in fact related to outdated protoscientific techniques (once considered scientific, now can be considered pseudoscientific) that were derived from 100s of years old hermetic science. | |||
Examples of this include: | |||
#similarity of the socionic information elements to tattwas. | |||
#That the information elements have (according to dmitri lytov) been considered to be associated to the central nervous system officially by ausura augusta. | |||
#That chakras have been considered part of the central nervous system by hermeticism, hinduism, and new age philosophies. | |||
#That tattwas have been considered part of the central nervous system by hermeticism, hinduism, and new age philosophies. | |||
#That tattwas are linked to chakras by hermeticism, hinduism, and new age philosophies. | |||
#That the information elements have been linked to chakras by socionic theorists | |||
#That socionists have adapted chakras and bioenergy to socionics theory, and are using socionics in a way that could be considered mystical or as an alternative medicine. | |||
However, this is my personal stance. I have ceased to indicate this in the article other than what can be credibly sourced from legitimate and official socionics publications. | |||
=== Assertion that Tcaud makes unnecessary personal attacks === | |||
Tcaudilllig has no other arguments than to slander my persons, as of late this has involved quoteing distorted versions of past events. This included libelous statements that I am a "cult leader" who proclaims himself to be "God" and wants to "start his own religion". I have a good faith belief that Tcaud legitimate believes these libelous and false accusations are true and therefore this provides his sole reasoning for making unnecessary reverts, usually followed by further ad hominem attacks and slander. He has thus made numerous unnecessary reversions to the article with reasons that are purely ] in nature to this effect. He avoids finding and quoteing credible sources when challenged (or in general). | |||
He has also attempted to underhandedly undermine the credibility of PHD related sources by making ad hominem attacks people with PHDs. A good example of this is here. The following is from : | |||
=== Tcaudillig's remarks and intent to hide credibility of appropiate source information through slander and ad hominem === | |||
Do you think he can be persuaded to retroactively remove the esoterism articles from the institute journal's record? ] (]) 15:18, 29 September 2009 (UTC) | |||
:I don't think it's important. Those are speculative articles that are not cited by other works (see my sources on the Socionics:Talk page). Nobody cares about them, and they are not foundational for socionics. --] (]) 19:54, 29 September 2009 (UTC) | |||
::You know, you could reinstate me on Wikisocion. I won't touch the main article pages; I just need to rearrange my own article namespace. If you like, just reinstate my ability to edit my own pages. Also the link to the progressive socionics forums needs updating. The new address is www.progressivesocionics.co.cc. ] (]) 16:56, 30 September 2009 (UTC) | |||
::How about this: seeing that that woman with a PhD. is trying to start her own insanity movement at socionic's expense, wouldn't it make sense for the Institute to put out an opinion on the "esoteric foundations" question? I'll write more about this in an message to your site. ] (]) 00:18, 1 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
=== Assertion that Rick Delong has been a fair representative in most circumstances === | |||
I respect Rick Delong. Unlike Tcaud he has been a fair representative. However, I disagree with him fundamentally over the nature of socionics and I believe that most of his assertion is simply apologetic in nature. I would like to state that thus far encounters with him have been workable. I agree with his recent edits on the article, which I believe promoted neutrality. Below are some questions I asked him concerning his stance and my stance (or what he believes my stance to be). | |||
==== Answers by Rick Delong (from a few questions I asked him) ==== | |||
===== rmcnew's response to rick delongs final opinion ===== | |||
A couple of questions here. I see that Rick delong has made a number of (what sounds like inaccurate) assumptions concerning what he believes my specific position to be that I think should be addressed. And for that I have a couple of questions. '''- These questions are for Rick Delong only.''' | |||
'''Rick Dulong makes the statement''' "I believe I have sufficiently discredited McNew's hypotheses" - | |||
:::''What exactly is "my hypothesis"?'' | |||
::::I said "hypotheses," not "hypothesis." 1) The socionic symbols were taken from the Tattwas, 2) hermeticism served as a foundation for socionics theory. | |||
'''Rick Dulong also states''' "I recommend deleting all mention of esoteric and mystic sources for socionics from the Misplaced Pages article, as these have no solid foundation" | |||
:::''What exactly are you considering to have "no solid foundation?" and why do quote "all" of the mystic and esoteric sources deserve deletion?'' | |||
::::I said, "all mention of esoteric and mystic sources for socionics". That means, that the socionics article should not suggest that esoteric and mystic ideas were a source for socionics theory. This is because no such sources have been demonstrated to exist. | |||
'''Rick Delong also states that:''' In refutation of "Rick Dulong attempts to disassociate the tattwas from the socionics functions by claiming that the shapes are universal symbols, which is true," this is deceptive wording that suggests that the association is proven or known, and that I am trying to hide the association. In fact, I am simply maintaining the null hypothesis -- that there is no practical connection. The burden of proof is on the hypothesis, not the null hypothesis. | |||
:::''How exactly is there "no practical connection"?'' and how does that effect what you seem to believe my " hypothesis" is?'' | |||
::::The socionics symbols were almost certainly not modeled after the tattwas. To suggest so would be original research, and the evidence put forth is simply nonexistent: "look at the socionic symbols. Three of them look like Tattwas." | |||
'''Rick Delong also says:''' McNew has provided numerous sources, but his sources do not say the same thing that he is saying. | |||
:::''What exactly is it that you are presumeing that I am saying and how is that conflicting with the sources?'' | |||
::::See the two hypotheses I wrote above. None of the socionics articles you have mentioned support either of your hypotheses. | |||
'''Rick Delong makes one final statement:''' "They do not support the hypothesis that mystic or esoteric ideas have contributed practically to the development of socionics theory." | |||
:::'' How have these not contributed practically to the development of socionics theory?'' | |||
::::Because they are not part of the generally accepted body of socionics theory. There is no evidence of esoteric sources for the development of classical socionics, i.e. what is outlined in detail at the Russian wikipedia article and serves as the common foundation for all, or nearly all, socionists. | |||
'''A few last questions for Rick Delong:''' | |||
:::''' If esoteric ideas have no practical application to socionics theory, than how come the below statement is on the socionics.ru website? '' | |||
::::I didn't say that. I said that esoteric ideas did not contribute to the development of classical socionics. | |||
:::'' Why would a socionics '''scientific research''' institute want to post anything about '''chakras''' and '''hinduism''' on its '''official socionics website'''? | |||
::::First of all, what sort of research institute is this? It is a small group of people who think about and apply socionics in various ways. They have no building or assets and are not part of the nation's academic structure. | |||
:::''Takeing the emphasis that this institute is for '''scientific research''', would not allowing a comparison of socionics to chakras and hinduism conflict with the western understanding of science? | |||
::::What is "scientific" about making comparisons? Anyone can do that. The institute's purpose is actually not to perform empirical scientific research, but rather to provide an "official sounding" organizational backing for a certain group of socionists. | |||
:::''Would that therefore mean that as an official socionics scientific research institute, by allowing these comparisons they are bringing socionics away from the methods of western science and closer protoscientific and alternative medicine fields? | |||
::::This suggestion of yours, finally, is absolutely correct. | |||
:::'' Why would this institute keep calling itself a "scientific research" institute?'' | |||
::::To make itself sound more important than it really is. This is a widely used technique. For example, the authors of originally positioned themselves as the "socionics institute" even though no one in the Russian socionics community had even heard of them. However, Prokofieva enjoys a much higher reputation in the socionics community, as can be seen through citations of her work in other papers on socionics within the community. | |||
:::'' Would they consider any potential '''scientific advancements''' in the study and comparison of these '''religious beliefs'''? '' | |||
::::The word "Nauchnyy" in Russian is not exactly "scientific," but closer to "research" (as an adjective). All the members of the institute are doing is making intellectual investigations into socionics and other fields and writing about connections they have noticed. That is no different in essence than anything anyone else does. | |||
:::'' Why is it that the author is emphasizing '''health''' in this instance as it compares to '''physical sickness'''?'' | |||
::::"health" is a broader concept than "physical sickness." | |||
The below statement is on the official website for the "Socionics '''Scientific Research''' Instutite". And I am going to bold the word '''scientific''' in that. It should be noted that Rick Delong's statement conflicts with the position of the below article, which '''compares socionics to hinduism'''. The author seems to believe that studying these hindu religious beliefs and connected esotericism, as they compare to the "young science of socionics" can lead to practical understandings in the prevention of disease and the creation of good health. | |||
::::As I've said, just because some people call their organization a "scientific research institute" (or "research institute," as would be a more professional translation, as noted above) doesn't mean that their research is actually scientific. | |||
::::Furthermore, as the issue at hand is 'whether esoteric sources contributed significantly to the development of socionics theory,' comparisons of socionics to hinduism by prominent socionics authors do not constitute a significant theoretical contribution to classical, widely accepted socionics. | |||
Now, why would that be? | |||

<blockquote>Effect of Energy flows on health and the evolution of human consciousness | |||
Research and technocratic revolution of the twentieth century has opened up new ways of obtaining information, provided an opportunity to exchange news with the world. , , , – .First you get a phone, then radio, television, and today - the Internet. The man opened the door to a new unknown world.And so it falls upon already strong information flow of the latest news, discoveries and achievements. But also the new gossip, political intrigue, the notorious "soap opera" in a television series, detectives, etc. Taking all the information without parsing the whole, people no longer control its flow. Consciousness can not cope with any volume or speed of its revenues, and the psyche can not stand. In such a situation man becomes a puppet: information flows occupy his mind and actively affect the mental state. This was one of the reasons for rapid growth over the last century the number of mental illnesses. | |||
In seeking a solution to this problem there are many different scientific concepts, schools of philosophy, psychological training. Study of the impact of information on the human psyche deals and Socionics, and neurolinguistic programming, and Dianetics, etc. .. etc. | |||
But the problem is not new. More than two thousand years ago the ancient philosophers of India decide this issue by studying the structure of meditative man, his thin shells. Thus were discovered and investigated energy information centers, or chakras. From the teachings of the chakras, the impact of them on a conscious, psycho-emotional life and human health and the connection of this theory with socionics introduces this article. </blockquote> | |||
<blockquote> | |||
According to TN Prokofiev, the subject of Socionics is a "study of the processes of information exchange rights with the world and their impact on the psyche." It is therefore important Socionics, having studied the energy-centers, to draw parallels between these ancient teachings and the young science socionics. Moreover, the study of this topic to determine the correspondence between the features and functions socionic awakened centers. In the future, this matter will give a new clue to the study of psychological, socionic and health problems of man, will open a new approach to study the causes of diseases. | |||
</blockquote> | |||
::::The quoted text clearly shows that author Olga Krylova has a serious interest in nonacademic fields such as chakras and tries to relate them to socionics. It does not at all demonstrate that esoteric and mystic ideas/systems lay at the foundations of socionics theory. It might be possible to demonstrate that a significant number of socionists write about nonacademic fields such as ____ (fill in the blank), however, this does not mean that socionics came from these esoterics and mysticism, as these are nowhere mentioned as primary sources for the development of socionics theory. Everywhere, the following sources are identified: Jung and Kempinsky. To suggest that esoterism was a prominent source of socionics would constitute original research, since there are no known Russian language sources that corroborate this claim. To make this clearer, if a sub-group of evolutionary scientists believe in ], that does not mean that religious ideas lay at the foundation of the theory of evolution. This, as it appears to me, is exactly the kind of point McNew is trying to push. --] (]) 15:32, 2 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
=== Rick Delong's withdrawal from socionics mediation=== | |||
I am hereby resigning from the rest of the socionics mediation debate due to lack of time and interest. I believe my continued involvement would take many hours of my time because of fundamental disagreements between me and other participants. Furthermore, they are highly motivated to promote a certain viewpoint of socionics that is nonrepresentative of the field as a whole, whereas I am weakly motivated to present it accurately. The effort required of me to counter McNew's excessive focus on the esoteric hobbies of Russian socionists is simply not worth it to me. I have stated my opinions and stand by all my existing statements, but I do not wish to continue with the debate. McNew, I suppose, will get his way, and introduce clarity in the socionics article (I'm being sarcastic) with a fair discussion of the esoteric basis of socionics, such as the Wikisocion article he has written about the . --] (]) 21:13, 2 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
====DeLong's opinion (pasted from elsewhere where it was out of place)==== | |||
Regarding McNew's proposed solution, I '''strongly disagree''' with it. To fairly represent socionics in the article and specifically include mention of connections made by socionists to religion, mysticism, and esoterism, one would also need to include mention of all other subject matters discussed by socionics authors in writing. For instance, socionics and cybernetics, socionics and schizophrenia, socionics and alcoholism, socionics and world domination, socionics and the American Ethos, socionics and the Orange Revolution, socionics and the zodiac, socionics and music, socionics and differential functional states, socionics and cultural evolution, socionics and product development, socionics and marketing, socionics and organizational behavior, socionics and management, socionics and world philosophy, socionics and architecture, socionics and animal personality, etc. -- just to name a few. Isolating "socionics and mysticism" without mentioning these other 'applications' of the field would constitute an unbalanced representation of the field. --] (]) 16:17, 2 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
==== Disagreement with Rick Delong ==== | |||
I disagree with Rick Delongs assertion above for the fact that socionics socionics in its core has similarities to hermeticism and has been adapted into something similar to a new age healing technique, therefore meaning that all of these things would be at the center of both hermeticism and also socionics, as socionics being a hermetic decendant, as the new age movement is also a hermetic decendant. Nevertheless, not all socionists agree that socionics is a hermetic decendent nor are there any credible admissions to that fact, despite the similarities and new ageism found in socionics theory. | |||

=== Assertion that MichalEXE has been a fair representative in most circumstances === | |||
MichalEXE has been a fair representative and has done his best to look at all sides evenly. I appreciate his efforts in this regards. | |||
== Further evidences presented by Rmcnew == | |||
=== Statement that socionics has an intense similarity to hermeticism, new age philosophies, and alternative healing === | |||
==== Response to -Rick DeLong- withdrawal from socionics mediation ==== | |||
::It should be duely noted that I do indeed personally object to and reject the hypothesis that socionics has no esoteric ties, and I believe that proponents who take the stance that there is no esoteric or protoscientific foundation are simply functioning as apologists for the theory. I do indeed personally believe, as there is evidence to the case, that socionics is related to hermetic doctrine in technique and purpose. I do admit that within the socionics organization it would be difficult to impossible to find any sort of admission to this fact from a reliable socionics sources, however. So, the view itself may not be notable enough for wikipedia for that very reason. | |||
::As far as wikipedia is concerned I am resigned to represent a neutral view on the matter. I would be content with there being neutral admission to the esoteric tendencies in socionics theory, but on a person note I disagree highly with those who fight against the evidences that socionics has a relation to hermeticism. If socionics is not itself an offshoot to hermeticism, it cetainly has alot of noticable similarities to hermeticism in its methodology. However, I do resign that any efforts to relay this could only be considered origional research on wikipedia and therefore may not be notable enough to mention in the article, excepting discussion on the talk page. | |||
::However, I should note that the tendencies that could be stated from reliable sources (according to wikipedia's standards) which do indeed correspond to hermeticism and current new age theories would be notable enough, in my opinion, to mention. Though, maybe with little to no mention that these things correspond heavily to new age or hermeticism unless that was also mentioned in the source article. | |||
::While comparisons to socionics and hermeticism by myself exists, I don't think that other editors should confuse my own personal comparisons to legitimate practices in socionics theory that correspond to hermeticism and therefore state that these practices are non-notable, because these practices do exist and are notable. Hermetic links are non-notable. Actual practices which are exactly like hermeticism, new age theories, and alternative medicine are likewise notable, regardless of similarities. --] (]) 16:40, 5 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
=== Continued similarity between socionics and new age alternative healing techniques (with source) === | |||
Just to show that there are similarities I submit the following, while not necessarily a reliable enough source to quote in the article, it does indeed show that socionics exists and has been adapted into an alternative medicine with the usage of chakras and bio-energy, which comes from the new age and hermetic movements. | |||
http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:Socionics#socionists_have_turned_socionics_into_a_therapy_akin_to_the_alternative_medicine_technique_of_vibrational_medicine | |||
This is correct: "''scientifically the socionics school in Kiev, Ukraine headed by Alexander Bukalov wouldn't be any more credible than the one headed by Tatyana Prokofieva in Moscow Russia.''" Note: "scientifically credible." But as I understand it, the issue is not who is producing more scientifically useful research (um, neither?), but which statements can be considered representative of the field of socionics as a whole. To cite Olga Krylova's hypothesis on the relation of socionic functions to chakras, or even to suggest that "socionists believe that the functions correspond to chakras" would be incorrect, as these views are not representative of the socionics community. --] (]) 16:08, 2 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
I disagree with what Rick Delong says above and beliefs in chakras and bio-energy are representative of the socionics community, just not necessarily among the whole of the community. Here is a website that is sponsoring a socionics workshop where the chakras and bio-energy are being discussed in relation to socionics theory, and are emphasized as something that creates good health. http://ru.laser.ru/authors/kudr/index.html --] (]) 16:36, 2 October 2009 (UTC) | |||

Introduction course | |||
The original training course Socionics, which we propose is aimed, above all, the fact that each of the students better understand themselves, saw their abilities and talents, was able to sort out their own problems. Mastery of this knowledge will help a person not to be blind in his life relatively themselves and others, knowingly make important life choices. Very specific recommendations on how to adjust the relations within the family and at work, with close and distant. | |||
The core rate - skills testing (type definition) people. The proposed method of testing is based on the art of listening to his interlocutor, and hence on the art of talk is tested on subjects of interest to him. This is akin to the art of journalistic interview. Then, the semantics of speech, we do meaningful for us to conclusions. Learning to understand the semantics of the individual (after all, the meaning given to words, everyone has his own) - is a task comparable to the task of learning a language. First, we teach the alphabet (in Socionics is a mental functions). Then study the individual model of the psyche of each of 16 types. Once this is done, we can determine psychotype rights. You will receive a full range of skills in this procedure. Practice course provides specially selected videos, printed teaching materials, games and exercises testing employed members of the group on request. '''The practice takes more than 3 / 4 of the course. The final part of the course (for those who have already mastered the language of Socionics) is devoted to the relationship and ways of their correction. The course provides new, but already widely proven methodology for determining the types of copyright and intertype relationships with knowledge on bio-energy (the chakras and bio).''' An experienced specialist will offer self-correction techniques biofield and meditation to improve your self-esteem, that really helps blend in any team and to establish family relationships. | |||
Classes are held in intensive mode - 5 hours 1 times a week on Sundays. Cozy room, tea, chamber environment (groups 5-8 persons), individual approach. Studying in a group you feel that Socionics - is not only interesting and practically useful knowledge, but also a profound personal experience, clarify your unique world view. And on this basis can a real personal growth. | |||

:::''''' Dmitri Lytov -''''' "So, Augusta created a framework of socionics. But it needed a reform. The necessity of a reform became obvious in the last years of perestroika (1989 – 1991). Although official psychology was still under strong influence of the official ideology, more and more Western psychological books came to Russia, were translated and published. In the beginning, there were only few authors – Eric Berne, Sigmund Freud, Erich Fromm, Carl Jaspers. But from now on socionics had to compete with other trends in psychology, because Soviet (and later post-Soviet) psychology became pluralistic. '''Two researchers from Kiev, Victor Gulenko and Alexander Bukalov, reformed socionics: they defined its subject and methodology, and created its terminology, which is used until now. Due to their activity, Kiev (Ukraine) became an “informal capital” of the socionics.'''" http://www.psihologia.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1503&sid=f39af7defe85e5b10864a55b2aac7381 --Rmcnew (talk) 22:53, 10 August 2009 (UTC) | |||

Its adherents refer to socionics types as “types of information metabolism.” Moreover, they consider this concept not only applicable to the human psyche, but – in a more global sense – to “information” in general. It is significant that these ideas are extremely similar to some eccentric views, but also to synergetics (the theory of self-organizing systems), having recently sprouted from the depths of cybernetics. Unfortunately, very little is known scientifically about the relation of socionics with synergetics and, in a broader sense, with cybernetics.

Augusta came to the conferences for several years, then stopped coming as her health worsened. Perhaps she felt marginalized by the socionics community. In fact, two volumes of her works were published without her approval by someone else, and she apparently did not receive any royalties from book sales. Now a pensioner, Augusta lived a very poor life like almost all elderly people in the former Soviet Union after its collapse. '''Emissaries from Kiev and Moscow schools of socionics would collect donations and bring them to her in person to help her subsist.

:::'''''Dmitri Lytov -''''' In 1980—1995 socionics existed as a "club of adherents" outside the official psychology. Groups of socionists appeared in different cities of the Soviet Union, but this was not enough to make socionics recognized by official psychologists. On the one hand, such isolation from psychologists positively influenced socionics: it developed without Marxist-Leninist stereotypes that overloaded Soviet psychological works of that time. On the other hand, such isolation created an illusion among many socionists that socionics were not a part of psychology, it rather were “a new science” with its own methods, subject etc. '''This was a dangerous trend: there was a real danger that socionics would turn into something esoteric, mystical.''' http://www.socioniko.net/en/articles/lytovs-intro2.html | |||
:::'''''Olga Tangemann -''''' '''The associative model of a human psyche is based on the model of the informational metabolism and psychoanalytic concepts, in which components of personality, socionic functions and colors of the chakras are considered as a dialectic interaction and expression of psychic energy.''' A human psyche seeks the harmony and balance between the mind and soul, between the physical and psychic components of personality. Traditional socionics study informational metabolism of a person and does not pay enough attention to the dynamic processes within the psyche and without those the informational metabolism could not be fully understood and explained.

=== 17th century hermeticism, with a revival in the 1950s onward === | |||
The '''conception of society as a system that could be modelled and controlled through information processing and feedback loops''' fascinated not only the cybernetics researchers but also architects, planners and designers of the time. The '''simple and hermetic systems''' of first-order cybernetics, working mainly with engineering and mathematical models, gave way to second-order cybernetics which dealt with 'open systems', or the interdependence of systems, be they social, natural or technical, including factors such as complexity and risk. '''Cybernetics also expanded into the late 1960s cultural moment of discontent, paranoia and movements for change''', offering an epistemology that spread from the '''control-oriented planning of the government''' and the military into sectors as various as business, art and counter-cultural politics and technology. | |||

'''Hermetic books, ancient metaphysical works dealing essentially with the idea of the complete community of all beings and objects.''' Authorship of the books was attributed to the Egyptian god of wisdom, Thoth, whose name was sometimes translated into Greek as Hermes Trismegistus and was therefore equated with the Greek god Hermes. The books treat of a variety of subjects, including magic, astrology, and alchemy, and were particularly influential in the 3d cent. with the Neoplatonists and in '''France and England in the 17th century'''. | |||

Hermeticism is a historiographical phrase describing the work that attempts to reconstruct the mode of thought held by 17th century scientists. It primarily traces out the connections of Renaissance (16th century) modes of thought with those of the Scientific Revolution (17th century). '''This type of analysis began with English historians of science in the 1960s.''' This category of history of science work has largely subsumed earlier academic philosophers' work on the problem of transition from Aristotelianism to '''17th century science'''. | |||

<blockquote> | |||
HERMAN HAKEN | |||
The work of the physicist Herman Haken and various colleagues over the past 20 | |||
years in the science of "synergetics" should also be mentioned (1973, 1977, 1983, 1988). | |||
Synergetics is defined as the science of co-operation, and Haken pioneered the scientific | |||
analysis of hierarchically organized co-operative phenomena in physics, with | |||
applications also in biology and the social sciences. He was one of the early workers | |||
also in chaos theory and self-organization and was one of the first to recognize cooperative | |||
self-ordering in various kinds of dynamical systems. A contribution of | |||
particular importance was a recognition that complex dynamical systems are Janusfaced. | |||
In some circumstances, the introduction of small changes can enhance the | |||
stability of the system or cause no significant disturbance. Yet, in other circumstances, a | |||
small change can completely destabilize the system -- a phenomenon subsequently | |||
developed by other workers and given the name of "self-organized criticality" (Bak and | |||
Chen, 1991). Haken also pioneered in the study of hierarchical control in dynamical | |||
systems. In particular, he identified two very different kinds. One involves distributed, | |||
mutual control among system parts in order to maintain a stable collective state | |||
(homeostasis). The other involves the introduction of superordinate "order parameters." | |||

Synergy is clearly not a peripheral phenomenon associated only with drug | |||
interactions or corporate mergers. Though it often travels in disguise, synergy can be | |||
found in the subject-matter of most, if not all of the academic disciplines. In physics, it is | |||
associated with the behavior of atoms and subatomic particles, as well as with | |||
superconductivity, synchronous light emissions (lasers) and such esoteric molecular | |||
phenomena as scale effects -- the "broken symmetries" highlighted in physicist Perry | |||
Anderson's classic article "More is Different" (1972). Indeed, the '''periodic table of | |||
elements''' is a monument to the many forms of synergy that are responsible both for the | |||
naturally occurring stable elements and for the more unstable or even transitory | |||
creations of modern physics; various combinations of atomic building-blocks produce | |||
substances with very different emergent properties. Even the chaotic phenomena | |||
which have been the subject of intensive research by physicists and mathematicians in | |||
recent years exhibit many forms of synergy. | |||

With the fall of Rome, much of the early work of alchemists was lost for Europe allowing the Arab form of alchemy to take root in European science. With the arrival of the Moors in Spain, came their alchemical knowledge as well as Islam. Arab alchemists are credited with the first practice of modern scientific method, as they were the first to bring structure to the study of nature’s chemical makeup. In the eight century C.E., the scientist Jabir Ibn Hayyan took the classic elements and expanded the system into a table of 7 elements and chemical processes, becoming the father of the medieval periodic table. Islamic alchemists and medical scientists created many tools that still exist today including the first distillation apparatus. The 12th century also brought the first Arab medical schools and some of the first pharmaceutical scientists emerged based around alchemy and a motivation to create and test medicinal elixirs. Through conflict with the Holy Roman Empire, alchemy soon spread across Europe and became one of the pseudo-sciences in medieval times (Holmyard). | |||

:::'''''Rick Delong -''''' Most '''socionists would agree that socionics is not a hard science''' like physics or chemistry, since it has no purely quantitative formulation. '''Its methodology is more on par with the social or soft sciences like sociology and psychology'''. At the same time it makes rather specific predictions unlike, for example, Freudian psychology.

== Debate against the claim from some editors who want to discredit the Moscow Socionics School by claiming the techniques there are fringe compared to other schools == | |||
There are some editors who are attempting to isolate the credibility of a whole socionics school that is located in Moscow, Russia, for reasons that are insufficent to wikipedias standards. In comparison it should be noted that scientifically the socionics school in Kiev, Ukraine headed by Alexander Bukalov wouldn't be any more credible than the one headed by Tatyana Prokofieva in Moscow Russia. In fact, if you were to look at a webtranslated version of ( ) from the Kiev school and compare this to the chakra article () from the Moscow school you would see that it is absolutely rediculous to make a claim that any of the socionics schools are any more scientifically credible than the next. Because 2 or 3 editors sware up and down this material is a minority fringe isn't sufficent enough for it to be claimed as such, especially when there are several PHDs in socionics and other fields who are knowingly allowing (and even encouraging) these sort of strange research comparisons between socionics and esoteric and religious philosophies to go on, while there are no known reliable sources where any such PHD in the socionics realm has condemned these strange techniques. In any case, I am sure that this would be enough to help you make your decision. --] (]) 03:12, 1 October 2009 (UTC) | |||

What are we talking about | |||
The focus of Socionics, of course, man. But in different cultural traditions of the people taken viewed from different points of view. | |||
Tradition, focuses less on "information" as to the nature of man power, allocates certain points and levels. . Their number varies in different sources. | |||
: For example: | |||
These centers, called Chakras in India are not in our physical body, but in another dimension, although the concentration in them is at times so intense that we get a sharp localized physical sensation. In fact, some of them quite close to the various nerve plexuses of the body, though not all. If we talk about the different plans in terms of human bodies or shells: physical body, etheric, astral, mental, causal - then we can trace a certain regularity: the presence in each shell of the "special points" that determine, ultimately, the course of development of the body So, if we turn to the physiology, developing being (especially in the early stages) has a hidden (neuter) singular points, whose activity leads to the formation of organs and tissues of the body. Known experiment in which the developing butterfly wing in removed one single scale - in the center of the future of a concentric pattern, and the pattern is not just broken, it does not arise. Immunologists favor of the hypothesis of the existence of the human body the only cells responsible for the processes of hematopoiesis and immunity. BV Bolotov said of the cell leaders. Bodies glands and nerve plexus are the centers of maintaining and regulating the functions of our body, like the "special points of the phase plane" of our physical well-being. A similar role is performed chakras in the etheric body, defining its "configuration" and operating features. | |||
Physiology and anatomy study centers of our physical body.Tom, that sensitives can see (feel) the chakras and other education etheric body, we are not surprised. Several unexpected were the results of experiments conducted by AV Bukalova and colleagues , confirmed the presence of certain power structures, it is relevant functions of information metabolism. Moreover, their localization in the projection on the physical body corresponds to their position in the mental and vital rings model A: the vital functions in the stomach area (which, in turn, is related to the vital plane), mental - in the neck and head. | |||
I can imagine a multi-layered, translucent image, where each layer corresponds to a level where the nerve plexus chakra, FIM, and some education like a show in different phase planes undeveloped, hidden features inherent to the core inside of us - I, soul, monad, who had put on themselves, all these shells, these increasingly tight clothing, to translate and exist in different spaces, use them as tools. | |||
Interestingly, yantras (symbols), corresponding to the chakras are in their mark some numerological signs - the number of petals surrounding a central field. With this number can be correlated to a certain classification of the same number of characters (some typology), such as chakra Muladhara with 4 petals, located in the zone of physical, corresponds, in particular, a typology of 4 temperaments coming from Hippocrates (sanguine, choleric , phlegmatic and melancholic), or classification by type of physique. Anahata Chakra with 12 petals astrological defines a typology of the base 12 (zodiac, eastern range of animals), but there are less used the typology of the base 6 and 10. Chakra vishudha represents for us the greatest interest, as responsible for the possibility of constructing a 16-tipnyh classifications, one of them and works socionics . There is a classification and a more dense level of the base 2 - the separation of the sexes, inherent in most species. | |||

:Actually, that's not true. In fact, Olga Tangemann is banned from the Humanitarian Socionics forums, that I know of, for talking about esoterism there. The socionist who calls himself Iceman made a point on another forum of stressing that the Humanitarian School does not concur with her claims. Another thing: recall that the magazine Olga submitted her article to saw fit not to publish more than half of it, because it went into a long foray about how she was inspired by esoterism to write it. ] (]) 05:11, 1 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
:: ''' <s>I see you complete and utterly avoided listing a last name for the Olga you mentioned.</s> ''' The Olga you are thinking about doesn't have anything to do with the above paragraph and she did not write it, who you are also claiming was banned '''from out of an internet forum that could be run by anyone'''. The person who wrote the above is Olga Karpenko. The article itself comes from an official publication from the "International Institute of Socionics" and is listed as "Journal Socionics, mentology and personality psychology ", N 2, 1995." That has absolutely nothing to do with some '''Olga being banned from an internet forum that could be run by just anyone.''' If something is published from a peer reviewed publication and authorized for publication by a PHD, namely Bukalov himself, than that article can be included as a source. Also, I should not that this article came about '''the same time that Ausura Augusta was alive and awarded a medal in recognation of a new discovery''', meanwhile, '''esoteric things were being published in the official socionics kiev institute journal'''. And whether or not it is the same Olga is mute. This article was published in 1995, officially approved for publication, and was published. No more should be said about it concerning whatever else disconnected could be said about it. --] (]) 14:03, 1 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
:::Are we talking about the same page? I see "Olga Krylova" and 1999 at the bottom of the page. The latest source ''she'' used was from 1999, so it's pretty safe to assume it was written some time after (unless she wrote part of it, and then the rest a couple years later). There's a math PhD named Olga Krylova, but she graduated in Hamilton, Ontario (at McMaster), but she isn't likely the Olga we want. ] (]) 20:49, 1 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
::::I don't think it is the same Olga. There seem to be alot of Olga's floating around and they are easily confused with one another. --] (]) 03:03, 2 October 2009 (UTC) | |||

You guys need to re-read the arbitration pages
Just a bit of advice to the involved parties. Your 'evidence' reads like a lecture and is very soft on evidence. None of you have provided the number one most important thing required for arbitrations and thats DIFFS. Long paragraphs about the other persons bias will get you nowhere if you don't have diffs proving disruption in specific circumstances. Seriously, read the arbitration pages that talk about what you should say and how to say it. Its even in the template.
{Write your assertion here} Place argument and diffs which support your assertion; for example, your first assertion might be "So-and-so engages in edit warring", which should be the title of this section. Here you would show specific edits to specific articles which show So-and-so engaging in edit warring.
For example: Saying 'his entire thesis screams original research' would qualify as an assertion, but it needs to be backed up with difs of specific edits which show this and possibly some words to put the diff into context. Saying 'Observe, he repeatedly attempts to' and then providing the Arbs with nothing to observe won't get you far. Diffs, Diffs, Diffs. 198.161.174.222 (talk) 14:38, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
