TY - JOUR AU - Stelmack, Robert M. AB - This article explores the contribution of differences in motor responseinitiation and execution to the biological bases of extraversion. Specifically,we examined individual differences in the lateralized readiness potential (LRP)for introverts and extraverts under conditions influencing stimulus evaluationtime prior to response execution, i.e., stimulus information value and tonalcomplexity. The salient effects were longer stimulus-locked LRP and shorterresponse-locked LRP for extraverts than introverts to simple imperative stimulito respond. The present studies (1) confirm that extraverts initiate movementfaster and are less efficient than introverts in the processing of simplestimulus signals to respond and (2) endorse the view differences insensory-motor processing are important determinants of variation inExtraversion.
