Yale Study: Sad, Lonely Introverts Are Natural Born Social Psychologists
Being discussed on cuckit right now.
Can't say I'm surprised tbh. We are social outcast with nothing left to lose. So why put up the facade?

Interestingly, the authors also found that lonely individuals, as well as individuals with lower self-esteem, tended to answer questions more accurately. Likewise, introverts answered more accurately than extroverts. According to Gollwitzer, this could be due to the fact that introverted individuals prone to melancholy spend more time observing others. Simply put, they have fewer motivational biases, and they’re good at introspection. This, Gollwitzer told Yale News “seems to be a case of sadder but wiser,” and “demonstrates an unappreciated strength of introverts.”
