I don't think that correspondance really works. For one, it is a bit of a conflation between introversion/extroversion and being outspoken vs being quiet, where what *version you are is more about natural proclivities. That is to say, one can be fine with, and quite good at, something they don't enjoy (and vice versa - there are many people who really enjoy constant social interaction but are quite bad at it!).
But even within outspoken/quiet, you can easily see those attributes in different takers and givers. For instance, a circumstance where someone is constantly asking questions, and getting short, blunt answers seems like an outspoken giver overpowering a quiet taker. On the other side, someone who blabs incessantly while the other party meekly subsides to just asking questions occasionally is an outspoken taker, taking the stage and never letting go of it.
