PSYC 132 CM - Personality Psychology

The course is designed to provide students with a thorough understanding of the major theories of personality. These theories will be explored by examining the outstanding theorists and their theories in the areas of psychoanalytic, humanistic, behavioral, trait, and cognitive psychology. Although assessment techniques and research relative to each approach will be discussed, the main emphasis of the course will be on the “normal” personality and how it develops and not on pathology.
