Logoi Psychēs

The Soul's Survival Grammars

When the feeling function is underdeveloped — when the soul's capacity for valuation has been wounded by early experience or cultural inheritance — the psyche compensates. It develops patterned logics: survival grammars that substitute for genuine feeling. These are the logoi psychēs.

This assessment measures four such logics. Each one distorts feeling in a different direction. None is pathological — they are adaptations, not diagnoses. But recognizing which logic dominates your emotional life is the first step toward recovering the feeling function they replace.

For each statement, select the number that best matches your experience.
1 = Never  ·  2 = Rarely  ·  3 = Sometimes  ·  4 = Often  ·  5 = Always
