Talk:Asociality

Avoidant Personality Disorder

I found and added a needed citation to this subsection. In the References section, it is number 13. I also added a little bit more information and reworded a few parts to make it flow a little better. Cellander (talk) 21:42, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

Definition

There is no definition given in the article. I believe the definition provided by the American Psychological Association would work nicely.

asocial adj. 1. declining to engage, or incapable of engaging, in social interaction.

2. lacking sensitivity or regard for social values or norms. —asociality n.

Lead Section Needs Work

The lead section of this article needs work. It makes us believe that the whole article is about introversion, but then it heavily focuses on asociality connected to mental illnesses while introversion is barely covered. Further, it barely mentions mental conditions which seems to be the focus of the article. Lastly, it mentions that asociality is sometimes viewed as a positive thing by different cultures and in different situations, but then this topic is not mentioned again in the article. --Sam Larson (talk) 20:33, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

This article has a mere two paragraphs on introversion. Yet, there are more than two sections on personality disorders. The claim that this article mainly focuses on introversion does not appear to be supported by the brevity of the section compared to the verbosity of other sections.
