It looked like the COVID-19 pandemic might be a good time to be an introvert. Now a large study shows that extroverts handled the situation better.
When we were all cooped up during the pandemic, the media heralded the fact that it was a time for introverts.
There were no parties you felt you had to attend. You concentrate on work in a home office without colleagues to disturb you. There was home schooling. And any birthdays that could be celebrated were small and far between.
Now a large study shows that people among us who are extroverted and have structured lives, not the introverts, were the ones who coped best with the pandemic.
“People who are extroverted and structured probably found creative ways to cope with everyday life, which meant that they were able to maintain better mental health than many others,” says Stian Solem, professor of psychology at NTNU.
He collaborated with psychology student Espen R. Lassen at NTNU and the research group behind the national survey TAKE.CARE2020 (Norwegian BRY.DEG2020) to investigate how different personality traits either helped people cope with the pandemic or made the situation worse.
