carry substance. - Another basis for type theory is
psychological factors as done by Carl Jung
extroverts and introverts - Even this theory fails to point out the
complexity of personality - Trait Traits are reactions not something a
person possess. Assumption that a personality can
be described by its position on a no of
continuous dimension on scale. - Two ways of assessing personality traits.
- The person describes himself by answering
questions about his attitudes, feelings and
behaviour personality inventory - Some one else evaluates the persons traits
either from what he knows about the individual or
from direct observations of behaviour. It is an
improvement over type theory. Scale of dimensions
8Theories of Personality
- Psychoanalytic Sigmund Freud
- Freud compared our minds to an ice berg. A small
portion which protruded above the surface of
water which represents conscious experience
while the much larger mass below water level
represents unconscious mind- feelings, thoughts
behaviour - Freud saw personality as being composed of 3
elements - ID - it refers to the innate
component of personality (contains everything
inherited ) - EGO - Mental images do not satisfy needs
- Super Ego - For a person to function
constructively in the society he should acquire
system of values, norms, ethics, and attitudes
which are compatible with the society, the right
and wrong - Eg A hungry man cannot satisfy his hunger by
imagining a delicious meal. The hungry man must
have food if the tension of hunger is to be
reduced.
