Background:

• Data was collected and analyzed to compare the communicator images of individuals with differing extraversion-introversion preferences.

Main Results:

• This finding aligns with existing research on personality differences in communication.

Conclusions:

• Personality preferences, specifically extraversion-introversion, are linked to communicator image.
• Differences in communication behaviors stemming from personality may affect an individual's societal comfort and success.
