Chapter 9: Social Learning Theories

This chapter is looking into the personality theories and is more specific as it focuses on the social learning theories. The wider topic in this book has been narrowed down to the social learning theories concept. These theories mainly focus on the learning process and the social behavior which an individual may acquire by simply imitating what is going on in the society. The personality more so when it comes to coming up with new behaviors, may be acquired by basically imitating the people in the society. These theories explain learning as a cognitive process that takes place in the general social context. In our daily lives these theories apply probably when it comes to teaching the young children various concepts. We visit new places daily and so we can apply the concept of imitating things as it has been brought forth in the theory.

The social learning theories have basically been used to define the personality of individuals at various places. It is being applied to explain the various individual behavior and character in criminology. This theory is important in trying to figure out individual’s personality at the legal level and they help the individuals come up with significant definition of the individual’s personality.

Chapter 10: Traits and Person ology

Traits are basically the distinguishing characters that belong to and are used to identify an individual at the various platforms. In the personality theories, this concept is basically used to identify the personality of the individual. At some point the individual personality do not come out so clear and so it requires the individual to come up with some solid explanation of their characteristics.

Traits go hand in hand with what the personality of the person is, the traits define the individual. Traits are the building blocks of an individual personality; this is basically what makes these two to appear to be significantly interrelated in the society. So generally this chapter is focusing more on trying to elaborate the various building blocks of an individual s personality in as much as traits are concerned. I personally come across different people that I cannot easily understand why they behave in some manner so generally I use this to help derive some sense out of their traits.

Chapter 11: Factors analytic, genetic and evolutionary theories The big five personality traits.

The personality theory is quite adverse and what basically happens is that there need to be some sort of analysis and identification. Initial chapters were focusing on the general traits including the general the big five personality traits. The big five personality trait is basically the taxonomy for personality description. The other concept that have been brought about in this trait is basically the idea of evolutionary theories. come in to completely. Evolutionary development basically explains the idea behind the traits being passed in terms of the genetics. The idea keeps on changing and they have different definitions for the personality traits and theories. This concept applies in the day to day life because at some point we find some behavior that is common to a particular lineage it may be good or bad. The concept of evolution in this case is very applicable. (Cervone & Pervin, 2015).

This chapter was generally explaining the personality traits as it relates to the general concepts of the language as it is used in relation to the personality traits in the society. There has been clear definition of how the type of the language that is being used by a people will significantly influence the general traits of an individual. There is some level of transformation that have been outlined in this particular chapter.

Chapter 17 Zen Buddhism

Chapter 17 of this book is mainly focusing on a whole new concept referred to as the Zen Buddhism. This is simply an idea that seeks to provide some substantial explanation to the trait where the individuals were quite keen on some issue of the religion becoming one of the very concrete and the perception is quite clear and tends to explain why the people in this religion were acting.

The Chinese tend to have embraced the idea quite a long time before the rise of other meals and idea has kept on changing. There should be some significantly of the personality trait theory. So basically the chapter has tried to be more practical about the ideas. The concept is very evident in the day to day life because we find people who are so keen on their religion and it actually defines their character. An example is the Muslim community who seem to be so serious when it comes to the matters of religion.
