This video describes the difference between introversion (intraversion) and extroversion (extraversion). Introversion and Extroversion are both personality traits. Introverts tend to gain energy from being alone, thinking, and self-reflecting. Extroverts tend to feel refreshed by engaging in social interactions. Some introverts do not like a lot of stimulation such as bright lights and loud sounds. Extroverts tend to seek out stimulation and do not mind crowded venues. Introverts tend to have a few close friendships, whereas extroverts tend to have many acquaintances. Both introverts and extroverts can take on the characteristics of the opposite trait, but it is sometimes difficult to do, particularly for those who are pure introverts and pure extroverts. Carl Jung coined the terms introversion and extroversion as part of analytic theory.
