Classical socionics¶

Classical socionics is a somewhat subjective term that includes the core concepts of socionics developed by Aushra Augusta and her early associates, such as the socionic concepts of functions, elements, information, “Model A,” intertype relations, etc. Most professional socionists agree with this foundation and base their work on it.
