module 16: personality traits || with Complete Solutions.
Personality traits correct answers reflect people's characteristic patterns of thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. imply consistency and stability.enduring depositions in behavior that show differences
across individuals, and which tend to characterize the person across varying types of situations
trait psychology correct answers the idea that people differ from one another in terms of where
they stand on a set of basic trait dimensions that persist over time and across situations
the five-factor model correct answers This system includes five broad traits that can be
remembered with the acronym OCEAN: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion,
Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. Each of the major traits can be divided into facets to give a
more fine-grained analysis of someone's personality
trait theorists argue correct answers there are other traits that cannot be completely captured by
the Five-Factor Model
critics of the trait concept correct answers people do not act consistently from one situation to the
next and that people are very influenced by situational forces
personality correct answers enduring predispositions that characterize a person, such as styles of
thought, feeling and behavior
continuous distribution correct answers Characteristics can go from low to high, with all
different intermediate values possible. One does not simply have the trait or not have it, but can
possess varying amounts of it.
three criteria that characterize personality traits correct answers consistence, stability, and
individual differences
consistence correct answers situations in their behaviors related to the trait. For example, if they
are talkative at home, they tend also to be talkative at work.
stability correct answers stable over time in behaviors related to the trait. If they are talkative, for
example, at age 30, they will also tend to be talkative at age 40.
individual differences correct answers people differ on how frequently they talk and how active
they are, and thus personality traits such as Talkativeness and Activity Level do exist.
lexical hypothesis correct answers states that all important personality characteristics should be
reflected in the language that we use to describe other people
Statistical techniques correct answers used to determine whether a small number of dimensions
might underlie all of the thousands of words we use to describe people.
