Which personality type are you?

Which personality type are you? In a world where it’s easy to be doubtful whether some folk in the public eye even have personalities – or pulses, for that matter – it’s rather fun to be told that a new personality type has been invented.

Evidently, as well as introverts (the quiet, sensitive type) and extroverts (the gregarious, confident ones), there are otroverts. This is according to a new book by Dr Rami Kaminski, a New York psychiatrist who has studied personality types for 30 years.

Otroverts are apparently introverts who are treated as extroverts. Nope, me neither, but it seems to describe those who are popular and sociable but struggle to be surrounded by others – emotional loners who appear to be the life and soul of the party. Which probably sums up pretty much every actor who has ever graced our screens!
