This document provides an overview of several theories of personality, including:
- Behaviorist theory by B.F. Skinner, which proposes that personality is shaped by reinforcement and punishment from the environment.
- Humanistic theories developed in the 1950s that emphasize each individual's uniqueness and potential for self-actualization. Theorists discussed include Carl Rogers.
- Trait theory proposed by Gordon Allport, which views traits as the basic units of personality.
- Several assessment models and their key dimensions are also outlined, such as Raymond Cattell's 16 personality factors and Hans Eysenck's three dimensions of personality.

Psychodynamic theories are views that describe personality based on conscious and unconscious forces. Personality is the difference in an individual that makes the person have distinctive behavior, patterns of thought and feeling. Personality lends consistency to the character of an individual. The character of a person is shaped by both the environmental and hereditary forces (Matthews, G. et al., 2009). Personality mostly focuses on two broad area. These are understanding discrete differences in a particular trait of a personality such as sociability or irritability, and understanding the way different parts of an individual are joined as a whole.
Famous theorists did work on the psychodynamic theories where they tried to explain the concept of personality. The leading theorists were Sigmund Freud, Alfred Adler, and Erik Erikson. Every theory focuses on explaining nature and the process of a character. The Object Relations Theory is also included in the group of personality theories. The theories perform psychoanalysis, a therapy that tries to disclose unconscious desires and thoughts. All psychologists do not accept psychodynamic theories. The theories have been criticized because of their lack of scientific data to support them.
Freud’s theory:
In this theory, Freud points out that personality includes ego, id, and the super-ego. He said that these three parts worked with each other to create the human character. The id makes a person to be responsible for seeking pleasure and instincts. The superego makes an individual to try to obey the rules of the elders and the society while the ego acts as a mediator between the id and superego on the basis of the demands of reality (Borden, W., 2009). For example, id makes people want food, the ego assists people in looking for a reasonable way to get food, and the superego holds the individual’s morality. According to Freud, the personality of a person is driven by id, superego, and ego.
Strengths and weaknesses:
The theory had both strengths and limitations. Let’s start with the advantages. One, the theory provides a broad framework for the description of the personality of persons. This approach was considered to have power in its explanation. However, it had limitations. Its major problem was that it was not scientifically valid. For example, the theory can help in explaining causes of an abnormality like a child trauma; however, it lacks research evidence to support it. The ideas of Freud were based mostly on his subjective analysis.
Adler’s theory:
Adler came up with the first holistic personality theory. His theory was connected to a humanistic philosophy of living. In his worker, he revealed an uncommon understanding of mental disorders and a big inspiration for.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Theories of personality
1. 1. MEANING AND DEFINITION OF
PERSONALITY
2. THEORIES OF PERSONALITY
NAME: SAIMA KHALIL
DEPARTMENT:EDUCATION
SUBJECT: ADVANCE EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY
COURSE # 522

3. The Meaning of Personality
The term personality is derived from the Latin word
persona meaning a mask. Personality is a patterned body
of habits, traits, attitudes and ideas of an individual as
these are organized externally into roles and statuses
and as they relate internally to motivation, goals and
various aspects of selfhood.
4. DEFINITIONS
The set of emotional qualities, ways of behaving, etc.,
that makes a person different from other people.
Attractive qualities (such as energy, friendliness, and
humor) that make a person interesting or pleasant to
be with.
Attractive qualities that make something unusual or
interesting.
5.
6. Personality
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 individual
differences 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.
7. Theory
A set of assumptions, propositions, or
accepted facts that attempts to provide a plausible
or rational explanation of cause-and-effect (causal)
relationships among a group of observed
phenomenon. The word's origin (from the
Greek thorós, a spectator), stresses the fact that all
theories are mental models of the perceived reality.
8. Behaviourist theory of personality by
Skinner :
Skinner believed that it is simply human nature that
we behave in such a way that we would receive rewards
or favorable things. If we want to experience
reinforcement, then we should develop personality
traits that are positive, such as those attributes
included in the "agreeableness" category of the Big
Five (e.g. being understanding, compassionate,
empathetic, and a positive thinker). In this sense,
Skinner argued that we respond to every kind of
reinforcement, and that our behavior and personality
traits can be shaped and controlled by the society.
10. B.F. Skinner (1938) coined the term operant
conditioning; it means roughly changing of behavior
by the use of reinforcement which is given after the
desired response. Skinner identified three types of
responses or operant that can follow behavior.
• Neutral operants: responses from the environment
that neither increase nor decrease the probability of a
behavior being repeated.
• Reinforcers: Responses from the environment that
increase the probability of a behavior being repeated.
Reinforcers can be either positive or negative.
• Punishers: Responses from the environment that
decrease the likelihood of a behavior being repeated.
Punishment weakens behavior.
11. Rogers
American
1902-87
believed that all people are born good, with
considerable potential, and that each person has the
ability to achieve their full potential as an individual if
they are able to overcome a series of hurdles
Rogers emphasised the importance of free will, we are
all individuals who freely choose to behave in whatever
way we desire, and we act according to that choice
12. Person-centred theory
Developed by Rogers based
on clinical work with his
Clients
Believed each person is like
The seed of an enormous
tree
13. Allport’s Theory Of Personality
Trait basic unit of personality
Used the term personal dispostion to represent traits
A trait is more generalized then a habit
A trait is dynamic, or at least deterministic of behavior
A trait’s existence may be established empirically
14. Humanistic theories of personality
Emerged in 1950s in America
Humanistic theories of personality emphasise the
uniqueness of each individual and the positive qualities
and potential of all human beings to fulfil their lives
Based on the assumption that all people are born good and
that all individuals strive to reach their full potential
throughout their lives
Believe that a healthy personality is the result of a person
achieving their full potential
Also believe that personality is made up of all experiences
up to any point in time
to understand someone’s personality fully, you must try to
understand the dilemmas and choices they have made in
their lives from their perspective
15. Raymond Cattell
Raymond B. Cattell entered the field of psychology almost against his
own better judgment. After working in a hospital during World War I,
he decided that understanding human behavior and interaction is the
only way to get beyond the irrationality of the times. While a graduate
student at London University, he was hired as a research assistant to
Charles Spearman, a mathematician studying the quantification of
intelligence. Spearman, a well known name in the field of intellectual
assessment, developed a mathematical formula known as factor
analysis. This statistical technique allows one to take raw data and
determine groupings of data. In other words, if you and many others
took a general test that had both math and English questions, a factor
analysis would likely determine that there were two factors or
groupings on this test. Imagine the power of this technique for lesser
understood concepts such as intelligence and personality
According to Cattell. The key to assessment is determining
where on the continuum an individual falls. The 16 traits are shown in
the chart below.
16. Cattell's 16 Personality Factors
Abstractedness imaginative versus practical
Apprehension insecure versus complacent
Dominance aggressive versus passive
Emotional Stability calm and stable versus high-strung and
Liveliness enthusiastic versus serious
Openness to Change liberal versus traditional
Perfectionism compulsive and controlled versus indifferent
Privateness pretentious versus unpretentious
Reasoning abstract versus concrete
Rule Consciousness moralistic versus free-thinking
Self-Reliance leader versus follower
Sensitivity sensitive versus tough-minded
Social Boldness uninhibited versus timid
Tension driven and tense versus relaxed and easy going
Vigilance suspicious versus accepting
Warmth open and warmhearted versus aloof and critical
17. Eysenck
Identified three dimensions of personality
Extraversion (Introversion)
Neuroticism (Stability)
Psychoticism (Superego function)
1. Psychometric evidence for each
2. Strong biological evidence for each
3. Make sense theoretically (face validity)
18. Neo-Freudians
Neo-Freudians: students of Freud who eventually
started their own school of thought due to major
disagreements with some of Freud’s ideas.
Carl Jung: 1875-1961. (pronounced – Young).
- Analytical psychology
- Born in Switzerland, trained as a psychiatrist
- Believed Freud placed too much emphasis on sexuality
as a motive for behavior
19. Alfred Adler
1870-1937 (Vienna, Austria): MD (opthamologist).
“Behind everyone who behaves as if he were superior to
others, we can suspect a feeling of inferiority which
calls for very special efforts of concealment. It is as if a
man feared that he was too small and walked on his
toes to make himself seem taller.“ - Alfred Adler
20. Abraham Maslow’s Theory
Abraham Maslow (1908-1970)
Maslow’s Approach
• Rejection of mainstream psychology & scientific
method
• Science too limited for studying human nature
• ‘Scientific attitude’ pathological (eg. Skinner’s)
• Began psychology career studying ‘dominance’ in
monkeys
• “Psychopathology of the average”
21. Maslow’s Theory
• Maslow’s methodology: identified self-actualisers
based on his own personal preference/bias
• Hierarchy of needs: some empirical support that lower
level needs are stronger than high-level when deprived
(eg. Wicker et al, 1993; Hagerty, 1999)
• Exceptions to the hierarchy of needs
• eg. ‘starving artist’
