The Disadvanting Of Margaret Harvey : Personality Rough Draft

The personality theory that I have chosen to focus on will be Identity Theory. It was developed by Erik Erikson in the nineteen hundreds. Erik Erikson believed that every individual goes through a certain number of stages to reach his or her full development or potential (Erikson, 1994). He theorized that a human being goes through eight different stages ranging from birth to death (Erikson, 1994). Identity Theory focuses on eight psychosocial stages of development, and an epigenetic principle of maturation (Schultz, 2008). The stages of development are

Personality is something I often think about. To me, it is one of the most important aspects of an individual, in terms of Human Relations. When dating, we assess our prospective mate’s “personality” – is it good, is it bad, are there components of it we cannot live with? When we have children, we ponder what type of “personality” they will have. Will it be like moms or will it be like Uncle Larry’s? Yet, it wasn’t until I took the Jungian Typology Personality Assessment that I made an honest connection to my personality and my tendencies as it relates to school or work. Moreover, previously, I had not deeply considered how my personality affects my style of conflict resolution. As an ESFJ (extraverted, sensing, feeling, judging) I have a lot of positives, making me a great candidate for management but I also have areas of weakness that I must remain cognizant

Margaret Floy Washburn was born on July 25, 1871 in New York City to parents Reverend Francis and Elizabeth Floy Washburn. She was born in a time when women were not allowed to display any type of power, higher reasoning, or desire for higher education. At the age of seven, she began her educational journey in the home of a retired Presbyterian minister who lived next door to her family. In 1886, she graduated from high school at the young age of 15 years old. Upon completion of high school, she attended Vassar College where she studied Chemistry and French. However, by the time she had graduated her educational interests had changed to philosophy and science, which

Personality is looked at everyday purposely and accidently. Whether you are judging how your new professor for the semester will be, or if you are studying your best friend for a project, personality is studied abundantly. While there are many ways to define personality, there is not a worldwide definition around. Personality is the unique combination of patterns that influence behavior, thought, motivation, and emotion in a human being (boundless.com). That is one of many ways of defining personality. When examining personality, there are four main approachable theories including: The Psychodynamic Approach, The Trait Approach, The Social-Cognitive Approach, and The Humanistic Approach.

Everybody has his or her own type of personality. We all act in a certain way that makes us who we are. It is believed that our parents, peers and, the environment we grow up in, shape us. Personality is describes as a combination of emotions, attitude, and behavioral patterns of an individual. There is a reason that we are the way we are and there are many theories that go along with that. Different theorist present their own definitions of the word personality based on their own theoretical positions. Which brings us to discussing Carl Jung’s theory of analytical psychology and Harry

A person’s personality says much about who he or she is. People define personality in different ways. Researcher after researcher has tried to come up with the best definition for what personality truly means. Case studies, correlational studies, and experimental designs are some of the most commonly used methods of research. These methods help better define personality. The advantages and disadvantages of each method differ and can be helpful or hurtful to the research of an individual’s personality.

When I was about 7 years old I would walk around Holland and I would see a homeless man at the corner of every street holding a sign that read “Anything helps God bless”. I felt sad because there was little I could do as I was only 7 years old and had no money to give,but one day as me and my family were walking I saw a green piece of paper on the ground. I picked it up, and as I unfolded I noticed it was a one dollar bill. The first thing that came to mind was to buy candy at the store,but something came to mind. What about if I walked to the corner of the street and give the homeless man the dollar,so I walked down the street and handed the bill to the man. He smiled and said “thank you”.That night I had a good feeling,the type of feeling a person has when you accomplish something. By giving the man the dollar it gave me the motivation to be caring to everyone. Caring for people can hurt us or be good to us. The characters Marin from “Geraldo No Last Name” and Finley from the novel Boy 21 are both caring because they both worry about someone that in their hearts and care about what happens to them.

     When thinking about my personality in regard to different personality theories, I felt that I could most relate to the humanistic theory. Carl Rogers

Some people starve, are very sick, and don't don't have a family to help support themselves. They don't understand what it feels like to be loved.

In particular, what makes my father have this kindness is he assists strangers in need. To explain, one day we were driving to a Lowes near our house, I had not noticed, but apparently two older ladies were walking in the opposite direction and one of them had fallen. My father had seen this and when it was safe to do so had turned around in the silver dodge ram truck he was driving. Once he caught up to them he had offered a ride to them, and it had turned out one of the woman had a medical condition that was affecting her there and then. Thankfully it was not too serious, but it had prevented her from walking normally. Once we reached their destination, they thanked my father and praised him. While helping the two older ladies may be seen as a task anyone would do, no one else had stopped, pulled over, and offered assistance to the two older ladies. In today’s world it is very
