I wonder if introversion/extroversion are umbrella terms for a wide range of meshing cognitive and personality traits.

For instance, we all default to a particular attentional style. To use the actor Woody Allen as an example, he has a classic narrow-internal attentional style (introspective, perhaps slightly neurotic) which suggests he's an introvert, yet these traits works for him socially on many levels.

But is he introverted? I think he and many people transcend that label.
