A simple linear display consisting of five buttons was used to test an extravert, an intravert, and an intermediate group to see whether differences in over-all response rate or pattern appeared initially, and whether these were affected by satiation on a restricted portion of the display (two end buttons). It was found that no significant shift due to satiation occurred but that extraverts were the most responsive group both before and after satiation. This does not seem to agree with Eysenck's theory but an explanation has been suggested to the present writer by Dr. Eysenck
