What "Introvert" and "Extrovert" really means..



Extroversion and introversion is not as simple as many people think. Introverts are not just quiet and extroverts are not just loud. 

The truth is, whether you are introverted or extroverted is determined by how you like spend your time.

Introverts tend to prefer spending time alone or having quality time with one or two people. As opposed to being in a large group of friends. They tend to need time to recharge after been very busy for social. Introverts can also get easily lost in thoughts and need more time to process things than others.

Extroverted people, on the other hand tend to dislike being alone. The prefer to spend their time with groups of friends, in crowd or at parties. Talking to others helps recharge them and they tend to enjoy being the centre of attention.


These are not exact definition, but they can help you determine which way you tend lean. One good way you might be able to understand if you are more  introverted or extroverted is to think about how you feel after socializing.

If you feel refueled by the experience you might be an extrovert.

If you feel drained instead you might be an introvert.

In the 60s, psychologist Hans Eysenck suggested that the difference between introverts and extroverts was that they simply had different levels of arousal - meaning that our minds and bodies were more alert and responsive to regeneration.

Hans' view was that extroverts had a low rate of arousal. This means that extroverts need to work hard to awaken their minds and bodies to the same ‘normal’ state that presentations can easily reach. This leads extroverts (or sad people, or they may not be at the end of the scale) to seek youth and entertainment, and to covet the company of others.




For importers, this type of incentive can be great, because their waking rate is very high, so they are easily motivated. One-on-one, individual interviews and predictable situations are likely to delight in the most sensitive presentations on external updates.


This is especially interesting when we look at some of the most common body language features and how introverts and extroverts can detect behavior differently.


In the same book, while exercise makes you generally happy, getting a presentation for a team game, this may not lead to happiness in the same way as for an admiring person.

HOW THE BRAINS OF INTROVERTS AND EXTROVERTS OPERATE DIFFERENTLY


Research has actually found that there is a difference in the brains of people who are loved and imported in terms of how we work for rewards and how genetic makeup differs. As for extroverts, their brains respond strongly when gambling pays off. Part of this is simply genetic, but partly different from their dopamine systems.


An experiment that had people take gambles while in a brain scanner found the following:

When the gambling they took was paid for, the frustrated group showed a strong response to two critical brain regions: the amygdala and nucleus accumbe so.


The nucleus accumbens are part of the dopamine system, which affects the way we study, and is known to motivate us to seek rewards. The difference in the dopamine system in the extrovert brain tends to push them to seek youth, to put themselves at risk, and to enjoy unusual or bizarre situations than others. The amygdala is responsible for processing emotional emotions, providing stimuli that chase excitement as they try something more refreshing than the introduction.



Numerous studies have shown that the difference comes from how presentations and recommendations do this. That is, the stimuli that come to our brain are processed differently depending on your personality. Extremely, very short route. It works in an environment where taste, touch, and visual perception and sensation occur. Introducing, motivation goes a long, complex way in areas of the brain associated with memory, planning, and problem solving.


WHAT MAKES SOMEONE CLOSER TO AN INTROVERTS?

Introverts are deceptive to understand, because it is so easy for us to say that presentations are like embarrassment, and in fact, the presentations are just people who find it annoying to be around people.

Induced people are known for thinking things before they talk, enjoying small groups, close friends and one-time, need time alone to rejuvenate themselves, and be annoyed by unexpected changes or last-minute surprises. Introverts are not shy and may not even avoid social situations, but they will definitely need time to be alone or with close friends or family after spending time in a large crowd.
