Given that the induced dipole moment (vec{p}_{text {ind }}) points from the negative to the positive end

Question:

Given that the induced dipole moment \(\vec{p}_{\text {ind }}\) points from the negative to the positive end of an induced dipole and the electric field \(\vec{E}\) displaces the positive charge center in the direction of the electric field and the negative charge center in the opposite direction, do you expect the polarizability \(\alpha\) to be positive or negative?
