In psychology, a tendency is often used to describe a person's inclination to behave in a certain way. This can be influenced by a variety of factors, including genetics, environment, and personality traits. For example, a person may have a tendency to be introverted, meaning they prefer spending time alone or in small groups, rather than in large social gatherings.
