I have been using, studying, teaching, creating HUMAN DIFFERENCE tests since 1976 when I took my first masters degree testing class.
Whether it is Herrmann Whole Brain, SOLAT, KOLB, GREGORC, Neethling Brain instruments or my own M.I.N.D. Design© or hundreds of others
they ALL report the same attitudes about how the primary styles/preferences/types approach ORGANIZING THINGS/STUFF.
LL/Upper Left/Left/Meditative/Thinker
moderately organized
once done using things
they are put away or discarded
not serious collectors

LL/Lower Left/Directive/Adaptor
everything is systematically organized
what is not needed is filed, boxed, stored away
can put their hands on anything immediately

M & D fairly similar
I & N fairly similar
D's KNOW THEY ARE THE ONLY REALLY ORGANIZED PEOPLE
D's KNOW THAT ALL I's & N's are HOARDERS and CHAOTIC
Immediately following completing my PhD where I studied many of the tests from Hippocrates in Greece to the Tao-Ying/Yang in Japan to the latest in the late 70s and early 80s I did a correlation study using 300 of the most common used tests in English and discovered a correlation score of .9 and higher between them.
No matter which theory, model, quiz, test you take
If you work with someone with the same basic one you will
COINCIDE - basically do things the same way
If you are vertically different from others you will
COMPLEMENT - do mostly the same things the same way with differences or difficulties up to 25% of the time
If your preference/style/type is horizontally different you will
CONTRAST - 50% of the time you will do things differently and have problems
If your preference/style/type is diagonally different you will
CONTRADICT - have problems up to 75% of the time
M, I, N, D
