Basic personality types according to the theories of the 20th-century Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung. An introvert is a person whose interest is generally directed inward toward his own feelings and thoughts, in contrast to an extrovert, whose attention is directed toward other people and the outside world. This typology is now regarded as overly simplistic because almost no one can be accurately described as wholly introvert or extrovert. Most persons fall somewhere between Jung's two types -- i.e., they are ambiverts, in whom introversive and extroversive tendencies exist in a rough balance and are manifested at different times in response to different situations.
