We seem to have two, stark opposing categories for everything from sexual orientation to economic status — but ultimately, these binaries are extremely reductive and force people into boxes that may not fit them at all. However, Brown University researchers Erica Godwin and Tara White just published a new You do not have permission to view the full content of this post.

The study outlines the two different kinds of "extraversion" (yes, with an "a" — it's the word researchers use when they talk about the personality traits associated with extroversion) and helps to explain them. They conducted their research by giving 83 volunteers personality assessments and taking images of their brain with an MRI machine. Here's what they learned:
two different types of extroversion:
Not, as is commonly believed, just one — and what's more, neither can simply be defined as "the opposite of introversion."
The first type is called "Agentic Extraversion.
This kind of extroversion is about taking leadership positions, sensitivity to reward, persistence, and generally being comfortable in the limelight. Speaking to Science of Us, White noted that those who are higher in agentic extroversion are perhaps a little less likely to feel a strong sense of connection with other people and have more interest in going for rewards in social or workplace contexts.
The second type is called "Affiliative Extraversion."
This kind of extroversion is all about social warmth and friendship — people who have this trait form close social bonds with a lot of people and get a lot of happiness and meaning out of them. They feel a strong sense of connection with the people and things that are important to them, but wouldn't necessarily feel the need to seek out a leadership position.
