If one includes lack of social networking, then we have I**J (as in MBTI) as a good candidate. "The results showed that participants with Parkinson's had higher levels of neuroticism — a personality trait associated with experiencing more negative emotions such as anxiety — and higher levels of harm-avoidance compared with healthy participants. In general, participants' willingness to take risks tended to be stable over time, and Parkinson's patients tended to report they took fewer risks." Neuroticism (5 factor) is very similar to J (MBTI).
