Something of the same explanation, | Dr. Sherman said, may apply to the fact that country folks sleep more than their city relatives. With nothing to do after the day's work is done but sit and think, they flee into dreamland. The city | dwellers have the movies, the dance | halls and scores of other ways of escape from their own thoughts. Sieep may be an escape both from conscience and | irom monotony. But _introversion and _extroversion themselves, Dr. Sherman holds, hardly can be considered inborn traits of in- | dividuals, as they appear among the children at the Child Research Center. Otherwise they would remain constant in typical situations, wiile actually the personalities of the children change Te- markably with changes in environment. It is only among older children, he | holds, that they beccme fixed in the | patter they are to follow through life, | t once this fixation has taken place it | is practically impossible to effect a per- | manent change.
