description Given the importance of selecting the right people for teleworking, this study aimed to investigate the role of introversion in psychological consequences according to demographic variables in teleworking during the corona period. The research method was correlational and the research sample was selected from 197 telework employees of a company by convenience sampling. Then they responded to research tools including the Beck Depression Inventory, Cognitive Failure Questionnaire (CFQ), Metacognition Questionnaire, Loneliness Scale, and Fear of evaluation Questionnaire. Correlation and regression analyzes were used to analyze the data. The results showed that demographic variables of age, life situation and recent unemployment predict psychological consequences. After including introversion in the model, living with others (as opposed to living alone) was associated with more severe loneliness, cognitive failures, and fear of evaluation as a result of changes in the conditions by the Coronavirus. The coefficient β is negative about loneliness. That means in this situation the introvert shows a greater tendency to be with others to reduce loneliness. This finding contradicts the background. Organizations are advised to pay attention to their personality when choosing employees to work remotely to reduce negative psychological consequences.
