IOP1502- ASSIGNMENTS QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS A+ GRADED

Which perspective to personality would argue that an employee's low or high
performance is the product of the work environment?
Behaviourism
Behaviourism states that the environment shapes behaviour. A behaviourist would
consider how a person's environment and the people in their environment shape their
behaviour. See section 13.3.2
Which perspective states that people create constructs and schemas about the
world that influence their personality and behaviour?
Cognitive theories
In the cognitive approach the emphasis is on selfregulation, self-efficacy, expectation,
prediction, perception, memory and cognitive processes, constructs and schemas,
which are all ways of understanding and controlling the world, other people and one's
own behaviours. See section 13.3.5
Which perspective focuses on the self as a core part of personality, and the
influence of social and interpersonal relationships?
Psychosocial theories
Psychosocial theories focus on the self as a core dimension of personality and
personality development, and also the dominant role of interpersonal relationships,
social and cultural factors, and the influence of other important people in the needs for
relatedness and personality development. See section 13.3.7 in your prescribed book.
What kind of study is done to assess a person's behaviour and characteristics
over a long period of time?
Longitudinal research
Longitudinal studies investigate how various personal and personality factors stay
consistent or change over time. See section 13.7 in your prescribed book.
Which perspective on personality emphasise that the individual is intertwined
with a group and the greater cosmos?
African view
African and Asian views emphasise collectivism and that the individual is intertwined
with a group and the greater cosmos. See section 13.3.9
