Extraversion

## What is extraversion?

Extraversion is a Big Five dimension describing the level of energy drawn from social interactions. Extraverts are sociable, talkative and sensation-seeking. Introverts prefer quieter settings.

## Why does it matter?

Extraversion correlates with positive emotions and life satisfaction. It is relevant in career contexts — DISC and MBTI partly build on this dimension.
