Various contemporary and historical perspectives are considered, including psychodynamic, humanistic, behaviorist, and evolutionary approaches. prereq: 1001
Class Description:
This course provides a broad overview of theory and research in the field of personality psychology. Personality psychology addresses some of the most central and interesting questions in psychology: Why do people think, feel, and act in the ways they do? What makes people different from each other? What are the essential components of an individual's personality? This course discusses answers to these questions as they have been formulated from the beginnings of psychology, over a century ago, up to the present time, drawing on up-to-date research to suggest which theories are likely to be empirically valid. Students should get a sense of the various approaches to personality psychology as different perspectives integrated into a larger story about the extent of our understanding of the structure, dynamics, and sources of personality.

Class Description:
This course provides a broad overview of theory and research in the field of personality psychology. Personality psychology addresses some of the most central and interesting questions in psychology: Why do people think, feel, and act in the ways they do? What makes people different from each other? What are the essential components of an individual's personality? This course discusses answers to these questions as they have been formulated from the beginnings of psychology, over a century ago, up to the present time, drawing on up-to-date research to suggest which theories are likely to be empirically valid. Students should get a sense of the various approaches to personality psychology as different perspectives integrated into a larger story about the extent of our understanding of the structure, dynamics, and sources of personality.
