Neuroticism is a personality trait characterized by the tendency to experience negative emotions such as anxiety, depression, and insecurity. Individuals high in neuroticism are often more sensitive to stress and have a higher likelihood of experiencing psychological distress. Research in this area often focuses on how neuroticism influences various aspects of an individual's life, such as relationships, job performance, and overall well-being. Studies may also explore the genetic and environmental factors that contribute to the development of neuroticism, as well as interventions and strategies for managing and reducing neurotic tendencies.
