PSY 330 Week 1 Assignment Initial Self-
Assessment (2 Papers)
This Tutorial contains 2 Papers
Initial Self-Assessment. Prior to beginning work on this assignment,
carefully read Chapter 1 of your text.
According to the American Psychological Association (n.d.)
Personality refers to individual differences in characteristic patterns
of thinking, feeling, and behaving. The study of personality focuses on
two broad areas: One is understanding individualdifferences in
particular personality characteristics, such as sociability or
irritability. The other is understanding how the various parts of a
person come together as a whole. (para 1)
In this course, you will explore seven well-known models that explain
the development of personality. However, you probably already have
some ideas and opinions about how personalities develop based on
your prior learning and life experiences. This first assignment is
meant to provide you with a baseline of your thinking about
personality that you can compare and contrast to the theories we will
be studying. This paper will also be integrated into a section of your
final assignment.
This is not a research paper; that will come later. In this assignment,
you will reflect on your current assumptions defining personality as
they relate to your understanding of your own behaviors. Describe

your personality, including your typical style, your main traits, the
way you interact with others, and how you handle stress. Explain
what it is that makes you uniquely “you,” and how you think you
became the person you are today. Describe the social and/or
psychological factors you can point to that help support your
explanation as well as any genetic factors you believe affect your
unique personality.
*******************************************************
PSY 330 Week 1 DQ 1 Freudian and Jungian
Theories of the Unconscious Mind
Freudian and Jungian Theories of the Unconscious Mind. Prior to
beginning work on this discussion be sure to read Chapters 2 and 3 in
your text, read the Iurato (2015) “A brief comparison of the
unconscious as seen by Jung and Levi-Strauss” article, and review
the Sigmund Freud: The Unconscious mind video and The
Washington Society for Jungian Psychology website. In addition to
the required resources, research a minimum of one scholarly source
in the Ashford University Library on this topic.
The unconscious mind is a core concept in most psychoanalytical and
psychodynamic theories, but Freud andJung’s theories are the most
developed and prominent. Your text and the required readings and
media havepresented the two theories. In your initial post of a

minimum of 350 words, present an overview of both Freud’s theory
and Jung’s theory of the role of the unconscious mind as it pertains to
personality and behavior. Thencompare and contrast the basic
assumptions of the two theories and note the similarities and the
differences as they relate to human behavior. Based on your reading
and research explain which interpretation of the unconscious mind
you support.
*******************************************************
PSY 330 Week 2 Assignment The Trait Model
of Personality (2 Papers)
The Trait Model of Personality. Prior to beginning work on this
assignment, read Chapter 8 in your text as well as the article
by Allemand, Steiger, and Hill (2013), and view the The Big
Personality Test video. In addition to the required resources, go to the
Ashford University Library and research a minimum of one scholarly
source on the trait model of personality and one scholarly resource
on the big five theory of personality.

It is recommended that you go to the The Big Five Personality
Test and complete the free, confidential personality test that is based
on the big five theory. The results of this test may be used to aid in the
completion of this assignment. Please note that you do not need to
register or give any personal information to obtain your results from
this website. After you have completed the assessment, click on the
“No, just give me my results” link. This link will take you to a page
that will tell you how you scored on each of the five traits in this
theory.
In the first part of this assignment, you will provide an overview of the
trait model of personality in which you identify at least one principal
theorist associated with the model. Briefly compare and contrast the
basic assumptions of this model and the psychodynamic model of
personality regarding the difference between healthy and unhealthy
personalities. Use your research as well as this week’s required
resources to support your statements.
The Big Five Model (also known as the Five Factor Model) is the
prevailing theory in the trait model of personality. In the second part
of your paper, identify and describe each of the five traits included in
the big five model: extroversion, agreeableness, conscienciousness,
neuroticism, and openness to experience. If you chose to take the
online Big Five Personality Test, reflect on your results from the test
and discuss how you scored on each of the five traits. If you chose not
to take the online test, use the assigned readings, video, and your
research to explain how the five trait theory describes your
personality.
*******************************************************
PSY 330 Week 2 DQ 1 Epigenetic Influences
on Personality and Behavior

Epigenetic Influences on Personality and Behavior. Prior to
beginning work on this
discussion please read the Hurley (2013) Trait vs. Fate and Weaver,
et al. (2004) Epigenetic Programming by Maternal Behavior articles
and review the Webster “The Great Rat Mother Switcheroo” online
article. The recommended resources for this week also provide more
information on these topics.
In this week’s required resources, we have learned that while our
genes have a lot to say about who we are, environmental factors,
particularly parental behavior, can shape the behavior of offspring on
a biochemical level. Using the assigned Hurley and Weaver et al.
articles, briefly describe the research that has been done with rat
mothers to illustrate this phenomenon. In your initial post of a
minimum of 350 words, explain the implications of the research on
parental behavior and environmental factors as they relate to human
personality development. Describe how this research data might be
used to explain unhealthy personality traits. Describe how the
emerging field of epigenetics is imparcting the longstanding nature vs
nurture paradigm. Be sure to cite the Hurley and Weaver, et al.
articles in your initial post.

The Concept of Self. Prior to beginning work on this discussion
please read Chapter
Nine of your course text, and review sections 2.5, 3.1, and 3.2 from
previous chapters. Also read the Palacios, Echaniz, Fernandez and

The concept of self is core to the study of personality, and most of the
theories we have studied in this course postulate some idea about
what constitutes the self. This week, we are looking at the self-
psychology model which presents several theories regarding how we
perceive ourselves and how that is expressed in our personalities. In

your initial post, provide a brief overview of the two theories of self
that resonate the most with you and explain why you relate to these
theories. Be sure to identify the principal theorists associated with
your two chosen theories. Describe the impact of our current digital
age on the concept of self , including the impact of social media on
the way we perceive ourselves. Explain whether or not our
perceptions of self are evolving because of social media, including the
idea of a digital self. Provide examples of how this might be
happening or provide a rationale as to why you believe it is not
happening. Your initial post should be a minimum of 300 words and
should include references to both of the assigned articles.

PSY 330 Week 5 Final Paper - Integrative
Personality Theory (2 Papers)

Integrative Personality. This assignment calls for you to employ what
Gordon Allport (1968) called systematic eclecticism. Prior to
beginning work on this assignment, review the section
entitled “Convergence of Theories: Eclecticism, Integration, and
Unification” in Chapter 1 of your text.
In this paper, you will complete the assignment which you began in
week three and create your own theory of personality development by
synthesizing the concepts and constructs of all the theories that seem
most accurate and appropriate to you and by using those concepts to
reflect on your own personality and development.
Research a minimum of eight scholarly sources related to these
concepts in the Ashford University Library to support your statements
in the paper. Popular websites and your textbook may augment, but
they will not count toward, the minimum number of sources needed
for the paper. The following content and headings must be included in
your paper.
