While this may be true, I think the researchers fail to take into account other factors that may explain such behaviors. I know from my own personal experience, as well as from others, sometimes text messaging is just convenient, which is why I text more than call, and I do not consider myself as a neurotic personality type. Also, as ridiculous as this may sound, some people, such as myself, are just plain lazy to talk on the phone. Sometimes I find myself laying in bed, and instead of wanting to talk on the phone, I would rather watch TV and text at the same time. This certainly does not mean I have a particular personality type.
I just thought I'd post this because I did not get the chance to express my beliefs in class. I believe that more research needs to be done within this topic, and the researchers should take into account of other significant factors that may affect the results of the study.
