CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Introverts tend to be quiet and keep to themselves, socially inhibited, serious, cautious. Extroverts tend to be sociable and outgoing, active, willing to take risks. Stable (emotionally) / Instable (Neurotic): The degree to which a person can become emotionally unstable or stable.

Detailed explanation-2: -Using factor analysis to devise his theory, Eysenck (1947, 1966) identified three factors of personality: extroversion, neuroticism and psychoticism. Each of the Eysenck Theory factors is a bipolar dimension, meaning that each has a direct opposite: Extroversion vs. Introversion.

Detailed explanation-3: -According to Eysenck’s theory of personality, extraverts’ cortical arousal at rest is lower compared to that of introverts. Scholars have thus hypothesized that extraverts should benefit from background music in cognitive tasks, whereas introverts’ performance should decline with music in the background.

Detailed explanation-4: -Eysenck (1947) found that their behavior could be represented by two dimensions: Introversion / Extroversion (E); Neuroticism / Stability (N). Eysenck called these second-order personality traits. Each aspect of personality (extraversion, neuroticism and psychoticism) can be traced back to a different biological cause.

Detailed explanation-5: -Eysenck’s model of personality (Eysenck, 1967) proposes that introverts have lower response thresholds and are consequently cortically more aroused than extraverts.
