PSYC 360 Individual Differences and Personality
|
|
While, the rest of psychology studies the similarities between people, this area looks at what makes each individual distinct from others. It investigates areas such as intelligence, aptitude, personality traits, and development of a self-concept, and tries to answer questions on why each individual turns out the way he/she does. One very important issue here is the famous nature-nurture debate: are we born like this or do we become what we are as we go through life? The course also looks at methods with which psychologists assess intelligence and personality.
