Roman ingots to shield particle detector : Nature News

Study Sheds Light on What Makes People Shy
By LiveScience Staffposted: 06 April
The brains of shy or introverted individuals might actually process the world differently than their more extroverted counterparts, a new study suggests.About 20 percent of people are born with a personality trait called sensory perception sensitivity SPS that can manifest itself as the tendency to be inhibited, or even neuroticism. The trait can be seen in some children who are “slow to warm up” in a situation but eventually join in, need little punishment, cry easily, ask unusual questions or have especially deep thoughts, the study researchers say.The new results show that these highly sensitive individuals also pay more attention to detail, and have more activity in certain regions of their brains when trying to process visual information than those who are not classified as highly sensitive.
