An outgoing person would be referred to as an extrovert, and would be further classified as being the sensing type, feeling type, and percieveing type. However most people are a mix of types.If you read the table below you will see that all the qualities one would attribute to an outgoing person are clearly put into seperate categories from all the qualities one would attribute to a less social person.
Psychological ("personality") Types
According to Jung's theory of Psychological Types we are all different in fundamental ways. One's ability to process different information is limited by their particular type. These types are sixteen.
People can be either Extroverts or Introverts, depending on the direction of their activity; Thinking, Feeling, Sensing, Intuitive, according to their own information pathways; Judging or Perceiving, depending on the method in which they process received information.
Extroverts vs. Introverts
Extroverts are directed towards the objective world whereas Introverts are directed towards the subjective world. The most common differences between Extroverts and Introverts are shown below:
Extroverts

An outgoing person is a person who is footloose and fancy free. They are go getters, and love to have fun. They are usually loud, but not too loud. Just loud enough for people to hear what is on their minds. They are crazy, and fast, and love to answer people's questions. Outgoing freinds are good for quieter people because they will always stick up for you and speak their minds. Sometimes, their mouths get them into trouble though. That is what I think of when someone talks about an outgoing person.

To me, an outgoing person is full of life, a good conversationalist, can get along with everybody and is usually a fun person. An outgoing person seems to be able to be around anybody and carry on a conversation and find something in common with them. They are usually the life of a party, too. They usually carry themselves with confidence and self assurance.

Im outgoing! I can easily strike up a conversation with ANYONE... a trick I learned in sales! Im friends with EVERYONE which is really nice because I can go anywhere and KNOW people. My best friend always tells me that she wishes she could be more outgoing like me, and she is referring to having guts. Im not shy, Im very honest and blunt and to the point when I have to be, but usually I take life with a grain of salt and nothing really bothers me all that much. I hope this helps!

Pretty much! Outgoing is someone who projects a lot of energy and is usually the first person to break the ice and get other people engaged in socializing. Not necessarily the same thing as confidence tho.

Outgoing person is always afraid to be called otherwise.
They pretend to be friendly but full of fears inside; thats why they look, act, talk, laugh unnatural.
If a person is really confident about him/herself, one can behave calmly and naturally in any situation.
I dont trust "outgoing" person. I trust "natural" person.

I don't agree that extroverts are necessarily sensing & feeling. Many are very unaware of others feelings.
Best simple explanation:
Extrovert personality requires spark and stimulation of other people, otherwise does not do well.
Introvert is agitated or over stimulated by other people, and seeks solitude
