Extraversion

Captions available

The idea

Extraversion is the tendency toward sociability, assertiveness, and seeking stimulation from the social environment.

In practice

A person high in extraversion gains energy from a crowded event that leaves others depleted.

Where people slip

Introversion is the low end of this dimension, not shyness and not social anxiety.
