休闲活动对痴呆症患者的总体生活满意度很重要。外向性的人格特征决定了兴趣的风格，因为它与休闲活动中偏好的社会刺激的数量有关。一般来说，外向的人喜欢与人互动，而内向的人更喜欢独处。本初步研究旨在通过外向性人格特征来确定痴呆症患者从事休闲活动的类型和时间长度。21名老年退伍军人（美国阿肯色州）参加了一个测试活动对睡眠影响的项目，他们的负责人接受了采访，以获得退伍军人外向性格特征的数据。被认定为外向的退伍军人往往比内向的人参与活动的时间更长。被描述为内向的退伍军人比外向的人参与更多的一对一活动，但时间比外向的人短。
Leisure activity is important to overall life satisfaction in persons with dementia. The personality trait of extraversion defines style of interest as it relates to the amount of social stimulation preferred in leisure activity. In general, extraverts enjoy interacting with people, while introverts prefer more solitary activities. This pilot study was conducted to identify the types of leisure activity and length of time persons with dementia engaged in those activities by personality trait of extraversion. The responsible party for 21 elderly veterans (in Arkansas, USA), enrolled in a project that tested the effect of activities on sleep, was interviewed to obtain data on the veterans' personality trait of extraversion. Veterans who were identified as extraverted tended to engage in activities for longer periods of time than introverts. Veterans described as introverted engaged in more one-on-one activities than group activities, but for shorter periods of time than extraverts.
