PSYC 221 Personality Theory Essay Quiz

PSYC 221 Personality Theory Essay Quiz

This quiz covers Chapters 14 and 15 of the course textbook:  

Friedman, H. S. & Schustack, M. W. (2016).  Personality: Classic theories and modern research, 6th  Ed.  Pearson: Boston.  

Essay answers must be more than 3 or 4 brief sentences, but kept within the bounds of a short-answer essay exam (i.e., 2-3 paragraphs). All your writing must be in your own words. Paraphrase (restate what you read) rather than copying material from the course textbook or the Internet.  No copying is permitted in this course and doing so will result in zero points on the exam. Answers must be written in narrative, paragraph form.  Lists and/or sentence fragments also will not receive points.
