They spelled extrovert wrong. Deliberately?

  The spelling with A belongs to Jung himself: http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/beautiful-minds/the-difference-between-extraversion-and-extroversion/ http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/beautiful-minds/the-diff...

    Interesting...(thanks for the link) But I would have expected them to be consistent within the article? It's done both ways in there.

      It is consistent. The word appears six times in total, and the 5 times the author used it were all consistent: >extraversion >extraverts >Quoting Hans Eysenck: extroverts >extraverts >extraverts >extraversion You're not supposed to correct someone's different spelling when quoting them.
