What trend does electro negativity follow going down the periodic table?

Electronegativity decreases as you go down a group in the periodic table. This is because as you move down a group, the atomic radius increases, leading to a decrease in the attraction between the nucleus and the outer electrons, resulting in lower electronegativity values.
