Personality
To begin, take a moment to interact with the learning object below. This will help you test your knowledge of the various theoretical perspectives of psychology that you have learned in a fun and interactive exercise.
For this discussion, address the following as you respond:
- Select one character, past or present, from a television show, movie, book, comic, game, etc.
- Briefly describe this character, including:
What medium (television, movie, book, etc.) is he or she from?
Why did you select him or her?
What is his or her personality as depicted? - Identify one approach (e.g., common-sense, psychodynamic, humanistic, etc.) that you feel is most accurate and useful in understanding this character’s personality.
- Discuss this selected theory. Why did you select it? How might this theory help us understand your character’s personality?
Your initial post must be a minimum of 200 words and utilize at least one scholarly source (e.g., the course textbook, a peer-reviewed article from the Ashford University Library, or a professional web source), cited according to APA format as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
Guided Response: Respond to at least two of your classmates who chose a different approach to personality and/or character. Discuss the theory they selected. Do you agree with your peer’s choice as applied to the character? Is it a good fit? Why or why not?
