Typical characteristics of pragmatists

Heavy pragmatists

Heavy pragmatists are SLE and LSI. They are a mirror pair of Beta.

Light pragmatists

Light pragmatists are LSE and SLI. They are a mirror pair of Delta.

Group behavior

When a group consists of members of this club, but without either of the two quadras having greater weight, its interactions are likely to be based on sports activities or discussion of, or cooperation in, projects related to manual work and engineering. Very typical examples of groups formed mainly of members of this club are groups of car enthusiasts where actively repairing and refurbishing them with their own hands is a key component of their activities.

This kind of group behavior, though, in terms of seeing a club as any kind of unit, is visible only as long as the group is held together by, and focuses on, discussions and activities of their common interests. Longer and deeper interactions make such a club visibly "split" into the two quadras, Beta and Delta.

Perception of other clubs

These perceptions are visible only as long as the other groups are seen exclusively through the prism of their activities and interests as a group; closer interaction makes such perceptions quickly be overruled by the relevant quadra perceptions.


Researchers

Pragmatists are inclined to regard Researchers with a mix of contempt and respectful wariness: they see Researchers as useless in anything involving "real work" or facing "the real world" but are often baffled when Researchers demonstrate insight and knowledge.

Socials

Pragmatists are inclined to perceive Socials as fun company but a bit lightweight.

Humanitarians

Pragmatists are inclined to see Humanitarians as either totally puzzling in their ideas and beliefs or intimidatingly worthy of admiration for the same reason.
