This is a content of PERSONALITY, FACTORS AFFECTING PERSONALITY & HUMAN BEHAVIOR. This content also explains important theories of personality in brief. I have prepared it for my Advance Nursing Practice presentation. Hope it will be helpful for Msc. nursing students.
Personality is always associated with persons in a social setting.
It changes with the person & the society.
For example – When a baby is born, it does not really have a distinct personality of its own. Most of them look similar & behave similarly, but as it grows, emerges a new person. The reason is, as it grows up, the surrounding factors shape up the personality.
The word personality is derived from the Greek word “Persona” means Mask. So the study of personality can be understood as the study of invisible “masks” that people wear.
According to Kilpatrick – Personality is a person among persons. There is no personality of one man on a desert island.
According to Murray – A person’s personality is like all other persons, like some other persons & like no other person.
According to Psychologists, personality is our external appearances & inner awareness.
According to MGT, personality is the sum total of ways in which an individual reacts & interacts with others.
Determinants of Personality are:
Biological factors
Cultural factors
Family factors
Social factors
Situational factors
Theories of Personality are:-
psychoanalytical theory
Socio-psychological
Extroverts & Introverts
Type theory
Self theory
Trait theory
Social learning

Transactional Analysis
Personality can be measured through different subjective tools such as - protective tests, behavioral measures & self-report questionnaires.

Transactional Analysis
Psycho-Analytical Theory is also known as Intra-psychic theory & developed by Freud.
According to Freud the components of personality are Id, Ego, Superego.
ID – Id is completely unconscious & inaccessible. It operates according to the pleasure principle & avoids pain. It can not act by itself. It can only wish, imagine &demand. Id consists of Life Instinct (hunger, thirst etc. ) & Death Instinct ( aggressive & destructive ).
Super Ego is our conscience, based on values, help to differentiate should & should not of the personality. Super ego has two parts – conscience & ego ideal.
Conscience – It consists of all the behaviors for which we have been punished & about which we feel guilty. For example – respect to elders. If we misbehave them we feel guilty.
Ego ideal – It consists of all the behaviors for which we have been praised & rewarded. For example – when we achieve success, when we win competition
There is an ongoing conflict between the id & super ego. EGO serves to manage the conflict & maintain a balance between both.
The ego is the logical, rational, realistic part of the personality.
Ego gains energy from id & gains moral from super ego & makes itself practical.
Id – unconscious state.
Super ego – very conscious state
Ego – preconscious state.
Socio-Psychological Theory is the happy blending of both society & individual & introduced by Horney.
Individual gets every thing from society & society shapes personality of human beings.
Human personality can be judged through some basic inter personal aspects, such as – complaint, aggressive & detached.
Complaint – Complaint people are dependent on other people & move toward others.
Aggressive – Aggressive people are motivated by the need for power & move against others.
Detached – Detached people think that they are self-sufficient & move away from others.
Jung states that there are two types of people – Extroverts & Introverts.
Extroverts – are optimistic with broad vision, open minded, out going, sociable & kind.
Introverts – are pessimistic with narrow vision, closed minded, inward directed, less sociable & little kind.

Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

2. INTRODUCTION TO PERSONALITY
Personality is derived from a Latin word “Persona"
which means a dress or mask which Greek actors
used to wear during playing a drama or play.
So it gives importance to outer appearance that
time but now it is known that just outer appearance
can not be stated as personality.
Personality means the power to have
influence on others.
3. Conti…
• Philosophical point of view states that personality
is idea of perception and it is self-enhancement.
• Sociological point of view defines it as integration
of all traits which determine the role and status of
the person in society
• Psychoanalytical approach states that personality
is construct of three components i.e. Id, Ego, and
superego.
4. DEFINITIONS OF PERSONALITY
Personality is the integration of those systems of
habits that represents one individual`s adjustment to
his environment(Kemph)
Personality is the relatively stable organization of a
person`s motivational dispositions arising from the
interaction between biological, social & physical
environment( Eysenck)
5. TEMPERAMENT
DEFINITION:-
It is set of inborn personality characteristics that influence
an individual’s manner of reacting to environment or
Personality characteristics that define an individual’s mood
and behavioral tendencies.
9. Contd ….
Types based on temperament – Hippocrates a father
of medicine classified people into four types as per
temperament depending on which one’s bodily
humours or fluids they believe to predominate.
Sanguine—
cheerful,vigorous,confident,optimistic(blood)
Phlegmatic ---calm, slow
moving,unexcitable,unemotional(mucus)
Choleric—irritable, hot tempered(yellow bile)
Melancholic –depressed ,morose(black bile)
This is similar to dividing people in vatha, pitha,
kabham in Ayurveda.
10. TYPES BASED ON BODY
BUILD(PHYSIOLOGICAL TYPES):-
KRETSCHMER
11. Contd …
Types based on body build (physiological types)
Kretschmer divided people into 3 types based on body
structure: –
Asthenic—introvert ,tall, thin ,sensitive
Athletic—active, aggressive, well developed muscular
body.
Pyknic—extrovert, round and fat.
13. Contd…
William Sheldon divided people into three types
according to body build and behaviour:-
Endomorph---plumb soft, fat, round, sociable even
tempered and relaxed easily.
Mesomorph—heavy set and muscular, physically
active and noisy.
Ectomorph ---tall, thin, flat –chested, self conscious,
shy, fond of solitude and reserved.
15. Contd ..
Extroverts ---people who are sociable and take
interest in others and like to move with people and
are skilled in etiquette. They are friendly and not
easily disturbed. They are dominated by emotions and
take decision quickly, realistic and face problems of
life objectively.
Introverts ----are those who are interested in
themselves, their feelings, emotions, reactions and
valves. They are self centered and busy in their own
thoughts. They are reserved to work alone situations
and easily get embarrassed.
16. BY TRAIT APPROACH: ---
Personality traits ---All port used different traits to
describe the uniqueness of each individual. The most
simple and practical way is list of qualities e.g.
patience, honesty, preservance, thoughness and
initative.these qualities are personality traits. Group
of traits are called factors or dimensions of
personality. When traits are analyzed and presented
on a graph, it is called personality profile.
18. OPENNESS:-
It refers to traits how someone is to conform to
societal or cultural norms, how concretely or
abstractly someone thinks about things, how
someone open or resistance to change. A person with
creative thinking and trying to do things in better way
likely scores higher on measures of openness.
CONSCIENTIOUSNESS:-
It deals with person’s level of organization, level of
discipline and prone individual to taking risks or to
meet unfavourable circumstances.
19. Contd …
EXTRAVERSION:--
It reflects how person is social, warm and loving tend
to be. Extroverts have high score in extraversion trait.
AGREEABLENESS:-
It takes in account how co-perative, kind and
dependable person are? The person who evolves in
common good not self centered score high in this
characteristics.
20. Contd …
NEUROTICISM:-
It is personality characteristic which deals with how
anxious, nervous, confident and self-contentment in
person. Worried, confused personalities score high in
this trait
21. FACTORS OF PERSONALITY
The physical factors ---physique of individual i.e.size,
strength, looks and constitution.
The environmental or social factor---working area,
home
Mental or psychological factors—motives, interests,
attitudes, will, character, intellectual
capacitiesi.e.intelligence, imagination, perception,
attention, reasoning
23. cont…
1. PHYSIQUE:-People differ in there physique in
different ways. difference in physical appearance
accounts in the development of different behavioral
patterns . According to Sheldon classification:-
PHYSIQUE TEMPERAMENT
• Endomorphic :-
Soft and round people
Comfort loving , pleasure seeking
sentimental and socializing people
• Mesomorphic :-
Muscular built, Strong
and Athletic Type
Very active full of energy , less
religious . They are aggressive & noisy
, achievements oriented People .
• Ectomorphic :-
These people have thin
body built , slender and
very delicate and fragile.
Sensitive and delicate intellectual ,
more religious people .
24. cont…
2.TRAITS are behavioral patterns that consistently
appear in wide variety of situations. e.g. a person who
is easily loose temper in wide variety of situations has
short tempered personality. Similarly a person
observed in jolly and humorous mood at different
places speaks about jolly natured personality.
3.HABITS :- Certain needs or motives drive the person
to achieve a particular goal. Any behavioral reaction
that results in to some reward or benefit is repeated
again and again and ultimately it becomes habit.
25. cont…
4.HEREDITY:- It is another important construct of
personality. Every individual is born with same
biological systems in the body but some functional
variances are always present and that determines
personality variances. For example sensitivity of
nervous system.
5.EMOTIONALITY:-Although every individual
experiences same type of emotional feelings but
people are found significantly varying in emotional
temperaments. some feel hurt very easily whereas
others emotionally very stable. This variance in
emotionality becomes the personality patterns in a
person.
26. cont…
6.ENVIRONMENT It is a very strong constituent of
personality. Wide variety of environmental
conditions can create wide variety of personality
patterns. A psychologist like Watson has declared
that you give me child from any race religion or
caste I will make him as you desired by
manipulating environmental conditions.
7.ATTITUDES These are mental predispositions to
react in particular way to others. These are the
learned dispositions which an individual learn from
environment. if the attitudes are recognized then
the prediction of behavior can be made.
27. FREUD’S PSYCHOANALYTIC THEORY
SULLIVAN INTERPERSONAL THEORY
THEORY OF PSYCHOSOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT THEORY
MORAL DEVELOPMENT THEORY
MASLOW’S SELF –ACTUALIZATION THEORY
28.
29. 1.FREUD’S PSYCHOANALYTIC
THEORY:-
Psychoanalytic theory has three major parts:
•Structural theory of personality:-Id, Ego, Superego
•A theory of personality dynamics:- Levels of
consciousness
•A theory of psychosexual stages of development
30. Structural Theory of Personality : Id,
Ego, and Superego
Id:- According to Freud the Id operates on the
pleasure principle. It is composed of biological
instincts including the drives of sex and
aggressionId would satisfy its fundamental
urges immediately and reflexively as they arose,
without regard to rules, the realities of life, or
morals of any kind. It is based on urges like
urge to eat, drink, eliminate, and, to be sexually
stimulated.Id, however, is usually bridled and
managed by the ego. E.g. baby is crying for
milk, he want milk in any condition, he cannot
compromise.
31. contd…
Ego:- Freud characterized the ego as working in the
service of the reality principle. The ego delays satisfying
id motives and channels behavior into more socially
acceptable outlets. The ego consists of elaborate ways
of behaving and thinking which constitute the
executive function of the person. Ego tries to satisfy the
id`s urge for pleasure but only in realistic ways that
take account of what is possible in the real world. Ego`s
task of satisfying both id and superego requires a
somewhat risky balancing act. E.g. School going kid
want new bag but he know her father cannot buy he
will compromise to some extent.
32. Contd…
Superego:-The superego correspond closely to the
conscience which is a set of positive values and moral
ideals that are pursued because they are believed to be
worthy. It consists mainly of prohibitions learned from
parents and other authorities. E.g. a person always
obeys rules because of strict discipline at home. It
consists mainly of prohibitions learned from parents
and other authorities. It has two major components:-
The ego-ideal---when a child is consistently rewarded
for good behavior. Self esteem is enhanced behavior
becomes part of ego-ideal.it is internalized as part of his
valve system.
33. Contd …
Conscience ---it is conscious part of superego. It develops
through interjections & automatizations of many
prohibitions of early childhood. When moral& ethical
principles are disregarded, the conscience generates a
feeling of guilt in an individual.
Freud`s general notion that our behavior is influenced by
biological drives (id), social rules (superego), and
mediating thought processes (ego).
SUPER EGO EGO ID→ ←
34.
35. b)Theory of personality dynamics
Freud proposed three levels of consciousness, or
awareness under this theory: the conscious, the
preconscious, and the unconscious.
•Conscious level,
we are aware of certain things around us and of certain
thoughts. The conscious included all memories that
remain within an individual`s awareness. Events and
experiences that are easily remembered or retrieved are
considered to be within one`s conscious awareness.
Examples include telephone numbers, birthdays of self
and significant others, the dates of special holidays, and
what one had for lunch this noon.
The conscious mind is thought to be under the control of
the ego, the rational and logical structure of the
personality.
36.
37. Theory of personality dynamics
cont…
• Preconscious level :-
The preconscious includes all memories that may
have been forgotten or are not in present awareness
but with attention can be readily recalled into
consciousness. e.g. what we had for breakfast, or our
parent’s first names. The preconscious enhances
awareness by helping to suppress unpleasant or
nonessential memories from consciousness.
It is thought to be partially under the control of the
superego which helps to suppress unacceptable
thoughts and behaviors.
38. Theory of personality dynamics cont…
• Unconscious level:-
It includes all memories that one is unable to
bring to conscious awareness. Unconscious
material consists of unpleasant or
nonessential memories that have been
repressed and can be retrieved only through
therapy, hypnosis, and have the capacity to
restructure repressed memories.
Unconscious material may also emerge in
dreams and in seemingly incomprehensible
behavior.

THEORY
Sullivan (1953) believed
that individual behavior
and personality
development are the
direct result of
interpersonal
relationships. He
explained the process of
personality development
in six stages of life.

DEVELOPMENT
Erikson studied the influence of social
processes on the development of personality.
He described the eight stages of life cycle
during which individuals struggle with
developmental crises. Specific tasks
associated with each stage must be completed
for resolution of the crisis and for emotional
growth to occur.

51. COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT
THEORY
Piaget has been called the father of
child psychology. His work concerning
cognitive development in children is
based on the premise that human
intelligence is an extension of
biological adaptation, or one`s ability
to adapt psychologically to the
environment. From his extensive
studies of cognitive development in
children, Piaget discovered four major
stages, each of which he believed to be
a necessary prerequisite for the one
that follows.

58. MASLOW’S SELF–ACTUALIZATION THEORY
Maslow believed that each individual have higher level
growth needs such as need of self actualization and
understanding of ourselves , but these higher needs only
assume a dominant role in our lives after our primitive
needs such as physiological needs, safety needs, need for
love and belongingness and self esteem needs are satisfied.
human motives may exist in a hierarchy ,so that we must
satisfy those that are more basic before moving on to ones
that are less linked to biological needs. This point is central
to a theory of motivation proposed by Maslow.
59. MASLOW’S SELF–ACTUALIZATION THEORY
Physiological needs such as those for food, water, oxygen and
sleep at base of hierarchy needs.
One step above is safety needs, needs for feeling safe and secure
in one’s life.
Above safety needs are social needs, including needs to have
friends to be loved and appreciated and belong to fit in network
of social relationship.
Above social needs are esteem needs, needs to develop self
respect ,gain the approval of others and achieve success.
Ambition and need for achievement to which we will return
later are closely linked to esteem needs.
Finally at top of hierarchy are self actualization needs. These
involves needs for self fulfillment ,the desire to become all that
one is capable of beings.
62. PSYCHOLOGICAL TEST TO
MEASURE PERSONALITY
1.Pencil and paper test: It was first used during world war 1
to weed out emotionally unstable draftess.The statements or
items, were choosen to reflect Psychological states or
processes that might product future emotional breakdowns.
It is in form of questionnaires in which ask questions or give
simple statements to be marked yes or no ,true or false. The
questions are more reasonable. e.g.
•I generally prefer to attend movies alone.
•I occasionally cross the street to avoid meeting someone I
know.
•I seldom or never go out on double dates etc.

2.Minnesota Multiphase Personality Inventory(MMPI) :-One
personality test that has proven to be valid for many purposes is MMPI.It
contains 566 statements, or items for people to answer for themselves.
Way to design a personality test would be to focus on the content of
items people mark as ‘TRUE’OR ‘FALSE’.
The test makers analyzed way each criterion groups answered the items,
then use this information to form scales. e.g. If depressed people ,more
often than other groups, answers yes to the statement, “my favorite teddy
bear was green", this statement would be placed on depression scale.
3.The 16 Personality Factor Questionnaire(16PF) :-Raymond Cattell
and his associates used 170 adjectives applicable to human behavior and
used a statistical procedure called factor analysis to identify grouping or
factors among items. The factors are :Cool to warm, Concrete thinking to
abstract thinking, Submissive to dominant, Shy to bold etc.

4.Projective methods:- These are based on
projective hypothesis, derived from Freud’s
personality theory. In this section we focus
on two of the most frequently used projective
tests that are:-
•The Rorschach Inkblot technique
•Thematic apperception test(TAT)
65. PSYCHOLOGICAL TEST TO MEASURE PERSONALITY
cont…
The Rorschach Inkblot technique:- In this set of inkblots
are used ,some are black and white, some multicolored appear
on separate cards. Subjects are presented with the cards ,one
at a time, and asked questions such as, “what might this be?”
or “what does this remind you of?”After writing down as many
answers as the subject cares to give for each blot ,the tester
goes back through the set asking the subject for more details,
including what it was about the blot that determined the
subject’s response.
The first phase the test is called the free-association phase; the
second phase is called the inquiry.
66.
67. Thematic Apperception test(TAT):- A different approach
was taken by Christina Morgan and Henry Murray in
developing the thematic apperception test. It is designed to
search out people’s basic needs by having them tell stories.
To guide story production ,the tester presents a series of
pictures and asks the subject to makeup a story about what
is happening, what went before, what is going to happen and
what people involved are thinking and feeling.
The TAT include a standard set of 30 pictures but it is rare
that all are included in one testing. Instead the tester selects
pictures involving themes of special significance to test The
test is built on assumption that people’s stories reveal
important aspects of their needs and self perception as well
as their views about significant others in their lives. Indeed
the stories given do often seem to be quite revealing.
