People tend to think, feel, and behave in typical ways. Personality theories attempt to predict and explain why people are the way they are. This course will help you to know the origins of each of several different personality theories, the history of the theorist and how this influenced their thinking, the key concepts of each theory, how these concepts relate to the development of a person, how culture moderates the experience of personality, and the implication of these concepts for personhood.
