The word personality itself stems from the Latin word persona, which refers to a theatrical mask worn by performers in order to either project different roles or disguise their identities.
At its most basic, personality is the characteristic patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that make a person unique. It is believed that personality arises from within the individual and remains fairly consistent throughout life.
While there are many different definitions of personality, most focus on the pattern of behaviors and characteristics that can help predict and explain a person's behavior.
Explanations for personality can focus on a variety of influences, ranging from genetic explanations for personality traits to the role of the environment and experience in shaping an individual's personality.

6. • Personality, a characteristic way of thinking,
feeling, and behaving.
• Personality embraces moods, attitudes, and
opinions and is most clearly expressed in
interactions with other people.
• It includes behavioral characteristics,
both inherent and acquired, that distinguish one
person from another and that can be observed
in people’s relations to the environment and to
the social group.
18. Extraversion–introversion
• Extraversion tends to be manifested in
outgoing, talkative, energetic behavior
• Introversion is manifested in more reserved
and solitary behavior.
• An individual may fall along any point in the
continuum, and the location where the
individual falls will determine how he or she
responds to various situations.

22. Big Five Personality Traits:
1. Agreeableness is a measure of an individual’s
tendencies with respect to social harmony. This trait
reflects how well the individual gets along with
others, how cooperative or skeptical they are, and
how they might interact within a team.
2. Conscientiousness is a measure of how careful,
deliberate, self-disciplined, and organized an
individual is. Conscientiousness is often predictive of
employee productivity, particularly in lower-level
positions.
23. 3. Extraversion is a measure of how sociable, outgoing, and
energetic an individual is. Individuals who score lower on the
extraversion scale are considered to be more introverted, or
more deliberate, quiet, low key, and independent. Some types
of positions are better suited for individuals who fall on one
side of the spectrum or the other.
4. Openness measures the extent to which an individual is
imaginative and creative, as opposed to down-to-earth and
conventional.
5. Stress Tolerance measures the ways in which individuals
react to stress.
24. What is a good personality?
• The personality is the typical pattern of
thinking, feeling, and behaviors that make a
person unique. When we say that someone
has a "good personality" we mean that they
are likeable, interesting and pleasant to be
with. ... We can develop or integrate into
our personalities any trait we deem fitting
and agreeable.
25. What is a beautiful personality?
• A person who has an attractive and appealing
nature and quality about them. A person
who wears grace and elegance as armor yet
adorns their sleeves with their golden hearts,
who treads ever so softly to the musical
sounds that feel like laughter.
26. What is negative personality?
• Negative affectivity (NA), or negative affect,
is a personality variable that involves the
experience of negative emotions and poor
self-concept. Negative affectivity subsumes a
variety of negative emotions, including anger,
contempt, disgust, guilt, fear, and
nervousness.
27. Examples of Positive Personality Traits
• Some, if not most, of your personality traits are likely to be
positive. For example:
• Being honest and taking responsibility for your actions are
admirable qualities.
• Adaptability and compatibility are great traits that can help you
get along with others.
• Drive and determination will help you keep going no matter what.
• Compassion and understanding mean you relate well to others.
• Patience is a virtue and also a good personality trait.
• Courage will help you do what's right in tough situations.
• Loyalty is a good quality to possess, making others trust you
28. Examples of Negative Personality Traits
• What would life be without balance? Whether we like to admit it
or not, some of our personality traits are also likely to be
negative:
• A propensity for lying, in order to avoid responsibility for our
actions, is a deplorable quality.
• Being rigid and selfish, unyielding to the needs of others are not
endearing qualities.
• Being full of laziness and excuses is sure to drive others away, too.
• An inability to empathize with others will also alienate us from
others.
• Being quick to anger will turn people away.
• Being disloyal, quick to talk about others behind their backs or,
worse, stab them in the back for personal gain also falls high on
the scale of negative personality traits.
