Key result
Introverted subjects showed a decrease in the stress index during a creative assignment, indicating increased parasympathetic influence, whereas this effect was not observed in extroverts.
Why the study?
The study aimed to investigate how different degrees of extroversion influence variability of cardiac rhythm parameters during creative tasks.
Does the degree of extroversion influence the variability of cardiac rhythm parameters during a creative assignment?

Introverts demonstrate increased parasympathetic influence during a creative assignment compared to extroverts.
The subject of the study is the variability of cardiac rhythm parameters, when carrying out a creative assignment, in patients differing in degrees of extroversion. Decreases in the stress index, indicating an increase in the influence of the parasympathetic part of the autonomic nervous system, were identified in introvert subjects. In contrast with introverts, a parasympathetic effect was not observed in extroverted subjects.

Arakelyan et al. (2016) reported an observational. Introversion vs. Extroversion was evaluated on Variability of cardiac rhythm parameters (stress index). Introverted subjects showed a decrease in the stress index during a creative assignment, indicating increased parasympathetic influence, whereas this effect was not observed in extroverts.
