Personality
Personality refers to the enduring characteristics and behavior that comprise a
person’s unique adjustment to life, including major traits, interests, drives, values,
self-concept, abilities, and emotional patterns. Various theories explain the structure
and development of personality in different ways, but all agree that personality helps
determine behavior.
The field of personality psychology studies the nature and definition of personality as
well as its development, structure and trait constructs, dynamic processes, variations
(with emphasis on enduring and stable individual differences), and maladaptive
forms.

Personality psychology is a branch of psychology that examines personality and its
variation among individuals. It aims to show how people are individually different due
to psychological forces.[1] Its areas of focus include:
construction of a coherent picture of the individual and their major psychological
processes
investigation of individual psychological differences
investigation of human nature and psychological similarities between individuals
"Personality" is a dynamic and organized set of characteristics possessed by an
individual that uniquely influences their environment, cognition, emotions,
motivations, and behaviors in various situations. The word personality originates
from the Latin persona, which means "mask".

Personality also pertains to the pattern of thoughts, feelings, social adjustments, and
behaviors persistently exhibited over time that strongly influences one's
expectations, self-perceptions, values, and attitudes. Personality also predicts
human reactions to other people, problems, and stress.[2][3] Gordon Allport (1937)
described two major ways to study personality: the nomothetic and the idiographic.
Nomothetic psychology seeks general laws that can be applied to many different
people, such as the principle of self-actualization or the trait of extraversion.
Idiographic psychology is an attempt to understand the unique aspects of a particular
individual.
The study of personality has a broad and varied history in psychology, with an
abundance of theoretical traditions. The major theories include dispositional (trait)
perspective, psychodynamic, humanistic, biological, behaviorist, evolutionary, and
social learning perspective. Many researchers and psychologists do not explicitly
identify themselves with a certain perspective and instead take an eclectic approach.
Research in this area is empirically driven – such as dimensional models, based on
multivariate statistics such as factor analysis – or emphasizes theory development,
such as that of the psychodynamic theory. There is also a substantial emphasis on
the applied field of personality testing. In psychological education and training, the
study of the nature of personality and its psychological development is usually
reviewed as a prerequisite to courses in abnormal psychology or clinical psychology.
Philosophical assumptions
Many of the ideas conceptualized by historical and modern personality theorists
stem from the basic philosophical assumptions they hold. The study of personality is
not a purely empirical discipline, as it brings in elements of art, science, and
philosophy to draw general conclusions. The following five categories are some of
the most fundamental philosophical assumptions on which theorists disagree:[4]

Freedom versus determinism – This is the question of whether humans have control
over their own behavior and understand the motives behind it, or if their behavior is
causally determined by forces beyond their control. Behavior is categorized as being
either unconscious, environmental or biological by various theories.

Heredity (nature) versus environment (nurture) – Personality is thought to be
determined largely either by genetics and biology, or by environment and
experiences. Contemporary research suggests that most personality traits are based
on the joint influence of genetics and environment. One of the forerunners in this
arena is C. Robert Cloninger, who pioneered the Temperament and Character
model.[4]
Uniqueness versus universality – This question discusses the extent of each
human's individuality (uniqueness) or similarity in nature (universality). Gordon
Allport, Abraham Maslow, and Carl Rogers were all advocates of the uniqueness of
individuals. Behaviorists and cognitive theorists, in contrast, emphasize the
importance of universal principles, such as reinforcement and self-efficacy.[4]
Active versus reactive – This question explores whether humans primarily act
through individual initiative (active) or through outside stimuli. Traditional behavioral
theorists typically believed that humans are passively shaped by their environments,
whereas humanistic and cognitive theorists believe that humans play a more active
role.[4] Most modern theorists agree that both are important, with aggregate
behavior being primarily determined by traits and situational factors being the pri
