Firstly, you will learn about the psychology of personality. Personality is a characteristic that makes up your own personal identity. When you start to look at personality, it is important to first look at the different areas in which it can be broken down. Generally, personality is broken down into two different categories- the big five and the big three dimensions of personality. 

The big five is made up of openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism- these are considered to be key characteristics in understanding how someone interacts with their environment as well as themselves and others around them (Costa & McCrae).

2. Personality Types

You will now learn about two different types of personality. The first type is known as the four-letter personality. This means that the subject is able to identify themselves in these categories such as “A” for extraversion, “N” for neuroticism and so on. The second type is known as the sixteen-letter personality. 

This means that the subject does not have a clear idea of what their personality really is and will have to use a mix of their own description with someone else’s description to be able to identify themselves in these categories such as “F” for introversion, “S” for agreeableness and so on (Costa & McCrae).

Conclusion-

This blog post helped me to get the idea of what psychology is all about. Firstly, I learnt that Psychology is the study of the human mind; it looks into our brains’ activities. Psychology helps us to know how things happen inside our brains and how we can control it. Moreover, I learnt that Psychology is divided in many areas and it is hard to define those fields especially in psychology of personality because it has so many branches. 

Personality is important because it helps you to understand why one person acts differently from others. It also tells you about how a person behaves in a certain situation. It helps you to be honest to yourself and other people. Also, it helps you to know where your weaknesses are and what you have to do to become better. 

Personality is important because it gives us a chance to get rid of our bad habits which are bad for everyone around us as well. Psychology helps us to have better relationships with others and with ourselves as well.
