    DEVELOPMENT
    GROUP 6
    What is Personality Development?
    • Personality development is defined as a process of developing and enhancing one’s
    personality. Personality development helps an individual to gain confidence and
    high self esteem.

    • Personality development also is said to have a positive impact on one’s


    communication skills and the way he sees the world. Individuals tend to develop a
    positive attitude as a result of personality development.
    How Personality Develops

    • Type theories suggest that there are a limited number of personality types that are
    related to biological influences.
    • One theory suggests there are four types of personality. They are:
    • Type A: Perfectionist, impatient, competitive, work-obsessed, achievement-oriented,
    aggressive, stressed
    • Type B: Low stress, even-tempered, flexible, creative, adaptable to change, patient,
    tendency to procrastinate
    • Type C: Highly conscientious, perfectionist, struggles to reveal emotions (positive
    and negative)

    • Type D: Worrying, sad, irritable, pessimistic, negative self-talk, avoidance of social


    situations, lack of self-confidence, fear of rejection, appears gloomy, hopeless
    What are the factors which help in shaping
    one’s personality?
    • 1. Heredity - Heredity refers to factors that are determined once an individual is born. An
    individual’s physique, attractiveness, body type, complexion, body weight depend on
    his/her parents biological makeup.
    • 2. Environment - The environment to which an individual is subjected to during his
    growing years plays an important role in determining his/her personality. The varied
    cultures in which we are brought up and our family backgrounds have a crucial role in
    shaping our personalities.
    • 3. Situation - An individual’s personality also changes with current circumstances and
    situations. Let's use me as an example: I would act differently when I had a lot of money,
    and my behavior would change immediately if I went broke.
    Personality Characteristics

    • What exactly makes up a personality? Traits and patterns of thought and emotion
    play important roles, and so do these fundamental characteristics of personality:
    • Consistency -There is generally a recognizable order and regularity to behaviors.
    Essentially, people act in the same way or in similar ways in a variety of situations.)
    • Both psychological and physiological -Personality is a psychological construct, but
    research suggests that it is also influenced by biological processes and needs.
    • Affects behaviors and actions -Personality not only influences how we move and
    respond in our environment, but it also causes us to act in certain ways.

    Multiple expressions -Personality is displayed in more than just behavior. It can also
    be seen in our thoughts, feelings, close relationships, and other social interactions.
    Importance of Personality Development

    Personality development helps you gain recognition and acceptance from society as
    well as the people around you. Personality development teaches you to respect not
    only your teachers and classmates but also family members, friends, neighbors,
    relatives, and so on.
