Their results showed that the structure of extraversion can be indentified in many cultures, and also shows support for the reward sensitivity as core model. They used many other experiments on this topic as a basis of their research, and tried to justify these works with their own experimentation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
