We study model theoretic tree properties ($\text{TP}, \text{TP}_1, \text{TP}_2$) and their associated cardinal invariants ($\kappa_{\text{cdt}}, \kappa_{\text{sct}}, \kappa_{\text{inp}}$, respectively). In particular, we obtain a quantitative refinement of Shelah's theorem ($\text{TP} \Rightarrow \text{TP}_1 \lor \text{TP}_2$) for countable theories, show that $\text{TP}_1$ is always witnessed by a formula in a single variable (partially answering a question of Shelah) and that weak $k-\text{TP}_1$ is equivalent to $\text{TP}_1$ (answering a question of Kim and Kim). Besides, we give a characterization of $\text{NSOP}_1$ via a version of independent amalgamation of types and apply this criterion to verify that some examples in the literature are indeed $\text{NSOP}_1$.
