The personality Paradox

Psychoanalytic approach: Personality theorists are concerned with identifying generalizations that can be made about consistent individual differences between people’s behavior currently we select to describe psychoanalytic.

A psychoanalytic approach are developed by Sigmund Freud developed that emphasized the role of the unconscious or the thoughts, feeling, memories and wishes that reside outside of awareness activity in regulating behavior. For testing the psychoanalytic approach produced hypothetical models of the structure of the mind by Freud, how are personality works and the ways in which it develops. This approach is not testable on modern scientific psychology. Personality has their origins in every language. Freud suggested three main three main structures within our psychoanalytic model: the id, ego and superego. The id is the part of the personality that operates on the pleasure principle and always looking to reduce the tension that comes from basic physiological drives. The ego makes responsible for interacting with conscious reality of personality, while the ego is governed by the reality principle. The reality principle consider as the ego will defer pleasure until a reasonable way to satisfy id instincts is available. Another the superego is the internalization of parental and social values. The superego is governed by the perfection principle. The perfection principle shows the image of perfect person or ego, which inspires the superego. The superego makes well done when we do well otherwise feel shame or guilt.

2. The question of “Nature versus Nurture” comes up often when trying to explain human behavior, from intelligence to personality to relationship behavior. Thinking of the different suspects, in this case, come up with one clear example where nature (biological factors) may have an impact on a person’s personality. 

Human personality is primarily influenced by past experience and training. They acquire all or most of their behavioral traits from nurture are well known as blank slate.

Biological factor has growth more in personality than adoptive factor in siblings. However Adoption factor directly measure the strength of shared family effects and adopt sibling only family environment. Biological factor are determined by genetic inheritance such as color of eyes, curly hair, color of body, pigmentation of the skin are all a function of the genes we inherit. These facts have led many to speculate mind as to whether psychological characteristics such as behavioral tendencies, thinking, personality attributes and mental abilities are also “wired in” before we are even born.

Unexpectedly, some adoption cases indicate that by adulthood the personalities of adopted siblings are no more similar than ability of family. This would mean that shared family effects on personality wane off by adulthood. This type case with personality, non-shared environmental effects are often found to out-weigh shared environmental effects. That is, environmental effects that are typically thought to be life-shaping (such as family life) may have less of an impact than non-shared effects, which are harder to identify.

Basic assumption is that the characteristics of the human species and behavior as a whole are a product of evolution that individual differences, due to each person’s have unique genetic code. In general, the earlier a particular ability appears, the more likely it is to be under the influence of genetic factors.
