Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sociable people are more likely to engage with others in group situations, but it is those who are dominant who tend to assert themselves and take charge. Manipulative and stern traits may also contribute to assertiveness, but the question specifically asks for which traits are more likely to lead to assertiveness, not which traits can contribute to it. Withdrawn individuals are less likely to assert themselves in group situations.
