Meaning and Origin:
Extraspection is a psychological term used to describe the process of directing one's attention and awareness outward toward the external world. It is the opposite of introversion, which focuses on the inner world of thoughts and feelings.
In Jungian psychology, extraspection is one of the four psychological functions or attitudes, along with introversion, sensation, and intuition. Jung believed that extraverts are more likely to be oriented toward the external world and to prefer activities that involve interacting with others, while introverts are more likely to be focused on their inner world and to prefer solitary activities.
Extraspection can also refer to the outward projection of one's own thoughts, feelings, and experiences onto others. In this sense, it is often used in a negative way to describe the tendency to blame others for one's own problems or to see the world in a biased or distorted way.
