The website ScienceDirect.com indicates concerning the personality trait of extraversion:
| “ | Extraversion refers to the tendency to focus on gratification obtained from outside the self. Extroverts are characterized by warmth, positivity, gregariousness, and excitement seeking.
Extraversion is a broad personality trait that encompasses a number of more specific characteristics such as sociability, assertiveness, high activity level, positive emotions, and impulsivity. The nature of the trait and its defining characteristics have changed considerably over time, and a number of different mechanisms have been proposed to underlie the trait. These mechanisms include individual differences in conditionability, arousal level, and sensitivity to rewarding stimuli. Modern extraversion research focuses on understanding the characteristic patterns of feelings and behaviors associated with extraversion, and linking these patterns to specific psychophysiological mechanisms... Extraversion-introversion is firmly established as a major personality dimension that constitutes part of the popular Five Factor Model of personality traits.[1] |

According to WebMD: {{Cquote|An introvert is a person with qualities of a personality type known as introversion, which means that they feel more comfortable focusing on their inner thoughts and ideas, rather than what’s happening externally. They enjoy spending time with just one or two people, rather than large groups or crowds.
When you hear the word introvert, you might think of someone who's shy or quiet and prefers to be alone. While that may be true for some introverts, there's much more to this personality type. Whether you're an introvert or an extrovert all depends on how you process the world around you.
A psychologist named Carl Jung began using the terms introvert and extrovert (sometimes spelled extravert) in the 1920s. These two personality types sort people into how they get or spend their energy. Introverts, Jung said, turn to their own minds to recharge, while extroverts seek out other people for their energy needs.
Introversion vs. Shyness:
Many people think of introverts as shy, but the two aren’t linked. Introversion is a personality type, while shyness is an emotion.
People who are shy tend to feel awkward or uncomfortable when they’re in social situations, especially when they’re around strangers. They may feel so nervous, they become sweaty. Their heart may beat quicker, and they may get a stomachache. They may be inclined to skip social events because they don’t like the negative feelings that take over their thoughts and bodies when they have to go to parties or other activities.
People who are introverted also prefer to skip social events, but it’s because they feel more energized or comfortable doing things on their own or with one or two other people. Introverts don’t choose to skip social events because they have strong negative reactions to larger gatherings the way that shy people do; they just prefer being alone or in very small groups.[3]
