Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:

Even though they are difficult to standardize in delivery and


interpretation, projective tests have been used by psychoanalytic
therapists to explain many factors in personality. Search the internet and
locate a copy of a psychoanalytic personality assessment, such as the
Rorschach or the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT). Complete the
assessment and review the results. Consider the following:

How did you feel while taking this assessment?

What do you think about your results? Do you agree with them? Why or
why not?

Did you find value in this method of testing for assessing personality?
Why or why not?

Erik Erikson believed that people grow and change in specific


psychosocial stages, each with an identified crisis that they must resolve.
He proposed that the way in which people resolve these crises will pave
the way for how they resolve future crises. This pattern of crisis
resolution becomes part of our personality and contributes to our identity
(Feist, 2018). Examine the 8 Psychosocial Stages proposed by Erikson.
Consider how far you have progressed through these stages in your life
and include the following in your response:

A description of how your experiences in these stages has contributed to


your personality as an adult.

A description of your thoughts on the strengths and limitations of these


stages in describing your personality.

Timothy is a 32-year-old Caucasian male who is married with 2 male


children, ages 2 and 4. He grew up in a household with 2 older sisters,
making him the youngest child. His parents are still married, and he has
a close relationship with his mother. As a child, Timothy began playing
sports at 6 years old and quickly excelled. When he was 9 years old, he
broke his ankle playing baseball and took 6 months to recuperate.
Despite his injury as a child, he played on his school’s baseball team
throughout middle school and high school. In high school, he struggled
to maintain his grades in his classes and focused the majority of his
attention on sports and friendships. He was quite popular and made
friends easily.

After high school, he earned a scholarship to a local junior college for


baseball, and he continued to play while he finished his associate’s
degree. After college, he obtained a job with his father’s company to pay
the bills, but he did not feel any type of attachment to or satisfaction
from it. He married his wife when he was 26 and has been the main
financial provider for his family.

He is seeking career counseling because he has been unable to find and


maintain a job that provides him with meaning and satisfaction.

One hallmark of humanistic personality theories is the idea of self-


actualization. Both Maslow and Rogers include self-actualization in their
personality theories, but each have their separate propositions regarding
the topic and the role it has in the lives of individuals (Feist, 2018).
Consider the following:
What does self-actualization mean? What are the characteristics of self-
actualizing people, according to Maslow? How do these characteristics
affect self-actualization?

What are some of the main similarities between Maslow's and Rogers'
theories regarding self-actualization?
What role does self-actualization have in your life? Considering the
principles of humanistic psychology, how can you move closer to self-
actualization?

Gordon Allport conducted immense research in the field of personality


in an attempt to define the term and how it is comprised. He believed
that personality is a product and a process, and it plays a large role in
motivation. In his proposed structure of personality, personal
dispositions are dynamic and help guide other dispositions (Feist, 2018).
Please expain the following in regards to Allport so that I can understand
it better.

What are the levels of personal dispositions, and how are they different
from one another? Provide an example of each level.

What is the relationship between personal dispositions and motivation?

What role does proprium have in the structure of personality?

Imagine your team has been asked to determine a theoretical approach to


assessing the personality of employees at your organization. You must
create a presentation for your human resources department to explain the
theories and propose a theoretical approach to assessing employee
personality.
