Introverts, Extroverts, and Cooperation
As usual, a small hypothetical social science study, but I'm willing to play with the conclusion, which is that extroverts are more likely to cheat unless they're likely to get caught. It wouldn't surprise the hell out of me if introverts are more likely to internalize social rules (or are people on the autism spectrum getting classified as introverts?).
Could "publicize your charity" be better advice for extroverts and/or majority extrovert subcultures than for introverts?
That's not what your link says. First, there is no cheating involved, we are talking about degrees of cooperation without any deceit. And second, it's not about "getting caught", it's about being exposed to the light of the public opinion which, of course, extroverts are more sensitive to.
