Yu Fu and Richard Depue, neurobiologist at Cornell University, New York, held a personality test to 70 students. They give ritalin to a few participants. Ritalin is a stimulant used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. In this study, Ritalin is used to improve attention and stimulates the release of dopamine which usually plays the role of motivation and reward.

What about people who are extroverted. The researchers found that the more open personality selecting satisfaction as soon as possible and focus more on the face. Haste to the environment faced by the reaction of the brain chemical.

From the research shows that a person with extrovert and introvert personality was much different about how their brains process the experience worthwhile. This finding could explain why it seems so excited extroverted personality in all that hustle and bustle. Conversely, a closed personality tend to prefer drinking a cup of tea at home.

Ritalin use in this study to increase the attention and stimulate the release of dopamine from the respondents. At the same time, the participants watched a video in a laboratory environment. After that, the team tested how strongly participants connect the video and the neighborhood with dopamine performance of the ritalin.

The results showed that the effects of ritalin that work on the dopamine system does not translate as a reward or motivation for the introverted personality. It shows that a person with a personality that have fundamental differences in how strongly they process reward from their environment. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | LIVESCIENCE | ISMI WAHID | KORAN TEMPO 4263]
