Understanding Personality
- Personality encompasses individual differences in thinking, feeling, and behavior patterns.
- Originates from the Latin word "persona," referring to masks worn by performers.

- Predicts individual actions in specific situations (Cattell).
- Reflects enduring patterns of thoughts, feelings, and actions (Mischel).
Fundamental Characteristics of Personality
