11. 3 Persperctives on Personality Development Trait Perspective Social Learning Perspective Interactionist Approach Exam Tip. . . Exam questions often ask for explanations of the 3 personality perspectives. You need to be aware of the drawbacks found in trait and social learning perspectives and the advantages of the interactionist approach. CRITICALLY EVALUATE!
21. Traits are thought to be stable, enduring and consistent in all situations. Trait theory attempts to predict behaviour. +ve = Can be easily measured through questionnaires -ve = Does not take into account environmental influences. It is not a true indicator of behavior.
50. Introvert & NeuroticLater he added a third scale to his model which he termed Psychoticism- A measure of how Tough-Minded people are. Eysenck used this third scale in a test to determine an individual’s Personality Profile. This test was called the Eysenck’s Personality Questionnaire (EPQ)
51. Cattell 1965 16PF Cattell was also a believer of trait theory. However, he questioned whether personality could be understood using only 3 dimensions.... Instead, he considered a much larger number of traits. Cattell examined 16 Personality Factors in a questionnaire called ‘Cattell’s 16PF test’.
52. Task. . . With a partner, choose 1 sports person each and describe to them why you think their psychological make up makes them successful? Make a note of each others responses to this question jotting down any key characteristics that are being identified! Can you think of a sports person who has the opposite characteristics to those that you have mentioned but is equally as successful?
63. Which of the characteristics do you demonstrate predominantly?Task / Homework Carry out both the Cattell’s 16PF test and Eysenck’s Personality questionnaire. Consider whether there are inks between the sports you most enjoy and your personality profile. Discuss the value of personality profiling as a way of selecting a team or when advising a person as to which sport to take up. Copy up KEY WORDS into your file.
64. Social Learning Perspective Social Learning Theory in direct contrast to trait theory proposes that all behavior is learned. Learning occurs by way of environmental experiences and through the influence of other people e.g. Parents, Coaches, Role Models, Friends and other significant others. Personality is NOT therefore genetically programmed. “All behaviour is learned through interaction with the environment”
65.
66.
67. Example An inexperienced sports performer may be inspired by the positive attitude and commitment displayed in training by an experienced player. The novice copies the desirable approach of the role model and receives positive reinforcement from both coach and peers.The process of reinforcement has facilitated learning.
68. CONDITIONS THAT SUPPORT SOCIAL LEARNING A drawback of social learning perspective is that it doesn’t take into account genetically inherited factors. This perspective does provide explanation as to why there are individual differences in ‘attitude’ ‘aggression’, and ‘motivation’ of sports performers. Can also explain why young people elect to take part in sport or follow a lifestyle that is healthy, active and balanced.
69. Can you think of any environmental factors that have effected your behaviour? a.) b.) c.) d.) e.) f.) g.) h.) i.) j.)
70.
71. This recognises that the trait theory and social learning theory both have a role in determining behaviour and personality.
77. PERSONALITY - Measuring Interviews - are they reliable and valid in each case? - are they of value in assessing a persons sporting ability? Questionnaires - e.g. psychometric self questionnaires, personality tests, multiphasicpersonality inventory and Catells 16 primary factors questionnaire. - are these appropriate for the results the researcher wants to gain? 3. Observations - difficult to remain unobtrusive which will affect behaviour. - secret observation is unethical
82. Create a poster that illustrates either one OR all of the three theories, use pictures and diagrams as well as key words / information to illustrate the theory.
83. You can either use A3 paper or produce using ICT and get your images from the internet.
84. Note this work will be displayed therefore it must be accurate & well presented.
