For instance, many highly intelligent people are introverts, yet extraversion is probably an advantage for leadership.
Is this true? Or are highly intelligent introverts just more likely to put there intelligence into book learning and paper writing that make it easier to evaluate their intelligence?
The Wikipedia page on introversion and extraversion cites a couple studies suggesting a link between introversion and intelligence/​giftedness, such as this study.
A bit more Googling lead me to a study using Big Five extraversion finds that the relationship might be more complex.
