A article about introverts in the March edition of the Atlantic monthly says the following:
quote:Science has learned a good deal in recent years about the habits and requirements of introverts. It has even learned, by means of brain scans, that introverts process information differently from other people (I am not making this up).
I wonder if someone could better describe this or point me to websites or books that discuss this fact? And, for anyone interested, here's the address for the article:

I've never heard anything like this referring to introverts in general before. I thought most cases weren't severe enough to warrant any major lifestyle differences. Of course there is a condition known as asperger's/asberger's syndrome, which is sometimes regarded as a case of high functioning autism. The less severe cases of this can sound a lot like the introverts the article focused on.

i'd like to see that study on the "different processes". I'm guessing it just means that introverts react to things differently. I personally don't feel right if i don't have at least an hour alone at the end of each day. even if I am tired and want to sleep i will stay up just to get that in.
