Inner-directed personality
A personality that is guilt oriented. The behaviour of individuals with this sort of personality are strongly controlled by their conscience. As a result, there is little need for police to make sure that they obey the law. These individuals monitor themselves. The inner-directed personality is one of the modal personality types identified by david riesman in the early 1950's.
