TRAIT THEORIES IN PERSONALITY PSYCHOLOGY

TRAIT THEORIES IN PERSONALITY PSYCHOLOGY - раздел Философия, TEST 1. Personality Psychology Studies Personality Based On Theories Of Individual...

1. Personality psychology studies personality based on theories of individual differences. One emphasis in this area is so construct a coherent picture of a person and his or her major psychological processes. Another emphasis views personality as the study of individual differences, in other words, how people differ from each other. A third area of emphasis examines human nature and how all people are similar to one another. These three viewpoints merge together in the study of personality.

2. Personality can be defined as a dynamic and organized set of characteristic possessed by a person that uniquely influences his or her cognitions, motivations, and behaviours in various situations. Critics of personality theory claim though that personality is “plastic” across time, places, moods, and situations. However, most personality theories emphasize stability over fluctuation.

3. Consequently, personality traits can be defined as enduring patterns of perceiving, relating to, and thinking about the environment and oneself that are exhibited in a wide range of social and personal contexts. Psychologists assume that these traits which are relatively stable over time and differ among individuals (e.g. some people are outgoing while others are shy) influence and predetermine people’s behaviour in the greatest possible degree.

4. Trait models in psychology have been criticized as being purely descriptive and offering little explanation of the underlying causes of a person’s behaviour. Another potential weakness with trait theories is that they lead people to accept oversimplified classifications, or worse offer advice, based on a superficial analysis of one’s personality. Finally, trait models often underestimate the effect of specific situations on people’s behaviour. It is important to remember that traits are statistical generalizations that do not always correspond to an individual’s behaviour.
