Results show that extraverts who were exposed to 12 hours of social interaction were more vulnerable to subsequent sleep deprivation than those who were exposed to an identical period of isolated activity.<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://awakeinamerica.info/2010/top-news/extoverts-suffer-sleep-deprivation-after-social-activity/' addthis:title='Extraverts more vulnerable to sleep deprivation effects following social interaction, study finds '  ><a class="addthis_button_facebook_like" fb:like:layout="button_count"></a><a class="addthis_button_tweet"></a><a class="addthis_counter addthis_pill_style"></a></div>]]></description>
