alt Hacker NewsWhat are you talking about? In your previous comment you suggest I correlated neuroticism to openness, which I did not. Now you are claiming I correlated neuroticism to creativity, which I did do. Neuroticism dampens many things, not specifically because what other people think, but because it imposes hesitation and artificial restraints on decisions in general.
In order to better understand what neuroticism really is and how it really works I suggest reading about the amygdala, gaba, fear impressions, and looping. The less a person is so restricted the more free they are to universally experiment, consider alternatives, and act. That is generally how people perceive creativity.
I was saying that your argument only made sense if it was the strawman you said I created. The only other option is something that you did not show any evidence for in your argument. Please show me papers that demonstrate this link between neuroticism and creativity.
