Introverts' Thinking
12 students marked "I sat this"Added 10 Jul 2021Question #010333
Read the text aloud.
As introverts are thinking, they reach back into long-term memory to locate information. An introvert will often compare old and new experiences when making a decision, which slows the processing down but leads to carefully thought-out decisions. This means that introverts have an active dialogue with themselves and usually walk around with many thoughts in their minds.
