Psychoneuroendocrinology, key personality traits – like being extroverted and conscientious – are connected to the strength of your immune system. “In other words, individuals who we would expect to be exposed to more infections as a result of their socially orientated nature (i.e., extroverts) appear to have immune systems that we would expect can deal effectively with infection. While individuals who may be less exposed to infections because of their cautious/conscientious dispositions have immune systems that may respond less well,” Dr. Kavita Vedhara, a health psychologist at The University of Nottingham’s School of Medicine in England, explains. “We can’t, however, say which came first. Is this our biology determining our psychology or our psychology determining our biology?” Are you an extrovert?
