Te versus Ti

• Te will explain why its views are true.
• Ti will explain why its views are valid.

The main difference between Te and Ti , as explain in [Extraversion vs Introversion], is that:

Te is the preference on Inductive Reasoning, meaning the Te dominant person would move from Observation -> Theory, where information from the surroundings and experiences is regarded as the most trustworthy and objective source of truth. Knowledge is often a tool for creating something new. Te will explain why its views are true.

Ti is the preference on Deductive Reasoning, meaning the Ti dominant person would move from Theory -> Observation, where trust is placed on the subjective logical structure. Knowledge is important as the foundation of building a line of reasoning of which trust is placed upon.
