German superior. The interpersonal attraction was measured based

Characteristics to differentiate between extrovert and introvert

Cronbach alpha of interpersonal attraction is .80, personality .78 and
.88 for silence. A descriptive statistic analysis namely the frequency
and percentage as well as the inferential statistic in the form of
Pearson correlation coefficient was used to test the hypothesis
of the study at significant level of .05. The findings showed that
the interpersonal attraction of superior was able to influence the
communication of subordinate-superior. The findings showed that
extrovert subordinates had intermediate perceptions through the
interpersonal attraction of superior. The findings of silence showed
that introvert subordinates tended to show silence towards the
superior in various situations. This matter can be identified based on
