the individual of those psychophysical systems
that determine his unique adjustments to his
environment”

6. Personality

characteristic ways of
acting and thinking

7. DETERMINANTS OF PERSONALITY

 GENETIC FACTORS play a major part in the formation of
personality, but not every personality characteristic is
originated from genetic makeup (Physical structure,
facial attractiveness, gender, muscle composition etc.)

THEORIE
Psycho-dynamic Theory - emphasizes the
unconscious determinants of behavior
Humanistic Theory - emphasizes individual
growth and improvement
Trait Theory - understand individuals by
breaking down behavior patterns into
observable traits

10. Psycho-dynamic Theory :
Freud’s Three-Part Personality Structure
IdId
EgoEgo
SuperegoSuperego

11. 
The id, ego, and superego are names for the three parts of the
human personality which are part of Sigmund Freud’s
psychoanalytic personality theory.

According to Freud, these three parts combine to create the
complex behavior of human beings.

Id: Meeting Basic Needs

The id is the most basic part of the personality, and wants instant
gratification for our wants and needs. If these needs or wants are
not met, a person becomes tense or anxious.

Example:- Sally was thirsty. Rather than waiting for the server to
refill her glass of water, she reached across the table and drank
from Mr. Smith’s water glass, much to his surprise.

12. 
Ego: Dealing with Reality
The ego deals with reality, trying to meet the desires of the
id in a way that is socially acceptable in the world. This
may mean delaying gratification, and helping to get rid of
the tension the id feels if a desire is not met right away.
The ego recognizes that other people have needs and
wants too, and that being selfish is not always good for us
in the long run
Example: Sally was thirsty. However, she knew that her
server would be back soon to refill her water glass, so
she waited until then to get a drink, even though she
really just wanted to drink from Mr. Smith’s glass.

13. Superego: Adding Morals
The superego develops last, and is based on morals and
judgments about right and wrong. Even though the superego and
the ego may reach the same decision about something, the
superego’s reason for that decision is more based on moral
values, while the ego’s decision is based more on what others will
think or what the consequences of an action could be.
Example- Sarah knew that she could steal the supplies from work
and no one would know about it. However, she knew that stealing
was wrong, so she decided not to take anything even though she
would probably never get caught.

15. 
The Humanistic
Approach to Personality

Abraham Maslow is considered the father of
the humanistic movement
− He studied the lives of very healthy and creative
people to develop his theory of personality

Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is an
arrangement of the innate needs that
motivate our behavior, from the strongest
needs at the bottom of the pyramid to the
weakness needs at the top of the pyramid

Needs

18. 
The Social-Cognitive
Approach to Personality

Is research-based by combining
elements of three major research perspectives
− Cognitive
− Behavioral
− Sociocultural

Maintains that learning through environmental
conditioning contributes to personality
development
− However, social learning/modeling and cognitive
processes, such as perception and thinking, are also
involved and are actually more important to the
development of our personality

19. 
Bandura’s Self-System

The self-system is the set of cognitive processes by
which a person observes, evaluates, and regulates
his/her social behavior
− There is a conscious decision to choose what behavior to
engage in, acting in accordance with the assessment of
whether the behavior will be reinforced or not

Self-efficacy is a judgment of one’s effectiveness in
dealing with particular situations and plays a major role in
determining our behavior
− Low self-efficacy is associated with depression, anxiety, and
helplessness
− High self-efficacy is associated with self-confidence, positive
outlook, and minimal self-doubt
