The socionic type "Balzac" is called in another way "critic" or "intuitive-logical introvert". The leading functions in its structure are two: white intuition (intuition of time) and black logic (logic of facts). “Balzac” is the most pessimistic type, but also the most capable of objectively assessing reality.
Features of the socionic type "Balzac"
Due to their basic function - white intuition - "Balzacs" are introverts. They are immersed in their inner world, they know how to feel it very subtly. When making choices, making decisions, making assessments, Balzacs are guided by their own feelings, intuition, and premonitions.
White intuition makes Balzakov sensitive to his own and other people's states, moods, experiences. In the inner world, Balzacs are distinguished by many shades, overflows, tones and halftones. Thanks to white intuition, Balzacs are very sensitive to the state of other people, they literally catch it.
Black logic is the creative function in a structure like "Balzac". Balzacs absorb information, love and know how to study it, sort it, search. They know how to find the necessary facts and understand a large amount of data. They enjoy both the process of searching for information (even if they are looking for a "needle in a haystack") and the result: when they manage to find what they need. At the same time, data, information can be on almost any topic. If some topic is not close to Balzac, he will simply spend more time, but he will still find the necessary facts.
