Understanding Introversion and Extroversion
Psychologists agree that introverts and extroverts differ in their response to outside stimulation, work styles, and social skills. Introverts tend to prefer less stimulation, work more slowly and deliberately, and enjoy deep, meaningful discussions. Extroverts, on the other hand, thrive with more outside stimulation, work quickly and are risk-takers, and enjoy socializing in larger groups. These differences stem from variations in environmental responses, cognitive approaches, and social preferences.
