superior function

Definition:

The superior function in Jungian typology is the dominant psychological function that shapes an individual’s perception and interaction with the world (e.g., thinking, feeling, sensation, or intuition). It is the most developed and consciously used function.

Example:

Recognising the superior function helps clients understand their strengths and address imbalances. For example, a client with a dominant thinking function might benefit from exploring their less-developed feeling function.
