Biological & social factors affect our conditionability - learning
Extraverts have relatively low levels of cortical arousal - interferes with conditioning, less susceptible to pain/psychological pain, more risky situations
Other way around for introverts
Neurotics have very labile & responsive ANS - interferes with conditionability, provokes high levels of stress, anxiety & depression (associated with antisocial or violent crime?)
Psychoticism scale correlates with psychopathic disorder - sensation seeking, lack of emotion, aggression, tough-mindedness
