Are you shy? This personality trait may not be solely based to your upbringing. A recent study, conducted by researchers at Stony Brook University in New York, and Southwest University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has found that introverted people may be born with a trait that causes inhibited tendencies.
About 20% of people are born with a personality trait called sensory perception sensitivity (SPS) that can cause people to have neuroticism. 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.
