Temperamental Geography

I'm working on a theory. The farther north you go from the equator, the more introverts you get by percentage. What do you think?

I think your potential hypothesis is plausible. My mind starts thinking about what other variables might be affected by lattitude, and would there be any correlation between those variables and introvertedness if indeed there is enough substantiation for your hypothesis and other variables. The first variable that comes to mind is Vitamin D level.

If that were the case, I suspect it would work southwards as well. I know south better, but I can see it being possible.. Maybe introverts just don't like being in the middle ;)

Is it something about colder weather that attracts introverts, because it gives them an excuse to find solitude inside?

I was actually told by a campaign leader out here that Maine is the state in the US with the most introverts. I immediately thought of you and this theory.

I have visited Maine once and I LOVED it. Maybe that's why.
