Eysenck's three dimensions of personality
Eysenck's three dimensions of personality are traits that describe how people typically behave and feel. These are extraversion (how outgoing and social someone is), neuroticism (how prone someone is to anxiety and emotional instability), and psychoticism (a trait related to toughness, impulsivity, and sometimes rebelliousness). Extraverted individuals are energetic and enjoy social interactions, while introverts prefer solitude. People high in neuroticism often experience more worries and mood swings. Psychoticism reflects a tendency toward independent, sometimes unconventional behavior. These dimensions help explain individual differences in personality and behavior.
