Exploring Traits
Factor analysis is a statistical
approach used to describe and
relate personality traits.

(1905-1998)

could be reduced down to 16 core personality traits based on statistical
correlations.

Are our personalities genetically determined?

Assessing Traits
Personality inventories are questionnaires (often with true-false or
agree-disagree items) designed to gauge a wide range of feelings and behaviors
![Page 14: Do Now: Write down as many personality traits as you can think of. Longest list wins!](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56649ef35503460f94c06140/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
MMPI
The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) is the
most widely researched and clinically used of all personality tests.

AIM: How do psychologists determine our personality
traits?

The Big Five Factors
Today’s trait researchers believe that Eysencks’ personality dimensions are too narrow and
Cattell’s 16PF too large. A middle range (five factors) of traits does a better job of assessment.
Conscientiousness
Agreeableness
Neuroticism
Openness
Extraversion

4. Can they predict other personal attributes?
These traits are common across cultures.
3. How about other cultures?
Fifty percent or so for each trait.

Evaluating the Trait Perspective
The Person-Situation Controversy
Walter Mischel (1968, 1984, 2004) points out that traits may be enduring, but the
resulting behavior in various situations is different.
![Page 24: Do Now: Write down as many personality traits as you can think of. Longest list wins!](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56649ef35503460f94c06140/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The Person-Situation Controversy
Trait theorists argue that behaviors from a situation may be different, but average
behavior remains the same.

The Person-Situation Controversy
Traits are socially significant and influence our health, thinking, and
performance

Consistency of Expressive Style
Expressive styles in speaking and gestures demonstrate trait consistency.
Observers are able to judge people’s behavior and feelings in as little as 2- 30
seconds

Humanistic Perspective
By the 1960s, psychologists became discontent with Freud’s negativity and the mechanistic psychology of the behaviorists.

Self-Actualizing PersonMaslow proposed that we as individuals are motivated by a hierarchy of needs. Beginning with physiological needs, we
try to reach the state of self-actualization—fulfilling our potential.

Ideal versus Real
![Page 32: Do Now: Write down as many personality traits as you can think of. Longest list wins!](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56649ef35503460f94c06140/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Assessing the Self
All of our thoughts and feelings about ourselves, in an answer to the question, “Who am I?” refers to Self-Concept.
Carl Rogers asked people to describe themselves as they would like to be (ideal) and as they actually are (real).
If the two descriptions were close the individual had a positive self-concept.
![Page 33: Do Now: Write down as many personality traits as you can think of. Longest list wins!](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56649ef35503460f94c06140/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Evaluating the Humanistic Perspective
1. Humanistic psychology has a pervasive impact on counseling, education, child-rearing, and management.
2. Concepts in humanistic psychology are vague and subjective and lack scientific basis.
3. Gender identity may develop before 5-6 years of age.

AIM: How does the interaction between the social context and the
person influence personality?

Social-Cognitive Perspective
Bandura (1986, 2001, 2005) believes that
personality is the result of an
interaction that takes place between a person’s behavior
and their social context. Albert Bandura
![Page 37: Do Now: Write down as many personality traits as you can think of. Longest list wins!](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56649ef35503460f94c06140/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Bandura called the interaction between personality and our environment
reciprocal determinism.
The three factors, behavior, cognition, and environment, are interlocking
determinants of each other.

Reciprocal DeterminismTaylor is friendly (trait)1. Influences her behavior
(she talks a lot)2. Influences her
environment (she is more likely to go to parties where she will talk a lot)
3. Her environment influences her behavior: the more she talks, the more friendly she thinks she is and the more parties she goes to, the more she talks

Individuals & Environments
How we view and treat people influences how they treat us.
Our personalities shape situations.
Anxious people react to situations differently than calm people.
Our personalities shape how we react to events.
The school you attend and the music you listen to are partly based on your dispositions.
Different people choose different environments.
Specific ways in which individuals and environments interact

Bandura’s Self- Efficacy
• Self-efficacy is our belief that we can perform behaviors that are necessary to accomplish tasks
• Major factor in how we regulate our lives

We develop personal constructs
consisting of polar opposites (fair-unfair, exciting-dull, smart-
unintelligent) to understand our world
Personality differences result
from different constructs

Social-Learning Theory: Personal Control
External locus of control refers to the perception that chance or outside forces
beyond our personal control determine our fate.
Internal locus of control refers to the perception that we can control our own
fate.
Julian Rotter emphasize our sense of personal control, whether we control the environment or the environment controls
us.

Exploring the Self
1. Research focuses on the different selves we possess. Some we dream and others we dread.
2. Research studies how we overestimate our concern that others evaluate our appearance, performance, and blunders (spotlight effect).
3. Research studies the self-reference effect in recall.

Benefits of Self-Esteem
Maslow and Rogers argued that a successful life results from a
healthy self-image (self-esteem).
1. When self-esteem is deflated, we view ourselves and others critically.
2. Low self-esteem reflects reality, our failure in meeting challenges, or surmounting difficulties.

Self-Serving Bias
1) We accept responsibility for good deeds and successes more than for bad deeds and failures.
2) We tend to view ourselves as better than average
3) Defensive self-esteem is fragile and egotistic whereas secure self-esteem is less fragile and less dependent on external evaluation.
