Īlthough there are many ways to think about the personalities that people have, Gordon Allport and other “personologists” claimed that we can best understand the differences between individuals by understanding their personality traits. But research shows that these traits and others are quite variable within individuals. “Are you an introvert”? In popular culture it’s common to talk about people being introverts or extroverts as if these were precise descriptions that meant the same thing for everyone.
Personality psychologists try to describe and understand these differences. Each time we use one of these words, words like “talkative,” “quiet,” “active,” or “anxious,” to describe those around us, we are talking about a person’s personality -the characteristic ways that people differ from one another. Some worry a lot, others almost never seem anxious. Some are active whereas others are couch potatoes. Some people are very talkative while others are very quiet. When we observe people around us, one of the first things that strikes us is how different people are from one another.
Describe your theory of how personality traits get refined by social learning. Describe how traits and social learning combine to predict your social activities. Give examples of each of the Big Five personality traits, including both a low and high example. Describe each of the Big Five personality traits, and the low and high end of the dimension. Describe in what ways personality traits may be manifested in everyday behavior. Explain a critique of the personality-trait concept. Describe how the facet approach extends broad personality traits. List and describe the “Big Five” (“OCEAN”) personality traits that comprise the Five-Factor Model of personality. Thus, one major debate in the field concerns the relative power of people’s traits versus the situations in which they find themselves as predictors of their behavior. Critics of the trait concept argue that people do not act consistently from one situation to the next and that people are very influenced by situational forces. In addition, some trait theorists argue that there are other traits that cannot be completely captured by the Five-Factor Model. Each of the major traits from the Big Five can be divided into facets to give a more fine-grained analysis of someone's personality. This system includes five broad traits that can be remembered with the acronym OCEAN: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. The most widely used system of traits is called the Five-Factor Model. Thus, trait psychology rests on the idea that people differ from one another in terms of where they stand on a set of basic trait dimensions that persist over time and across situations. Personality traits imply consistency and stability-someone who scores high on a specific trait like Extraversion is expected to be sociable in different situations and over time. Personality traits reflect people’s characteristic patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
