Personality is a dynamic collection of psychological characteristics that define the individual’s character. It is the combination of thoughts, emotions and behaviours that make up an individual’s unique identity. Personality has numerous components, such as traits, attitudes and values, which shape how an individual interacts with and responds to the world around them. Traits are the more stable aspects of personality, reflecting a person’s biological and environmental influences. Attitudes refer to an individual’s beliefs and preferences. Values reflect deep-seated beliefs about what types of behaviour and attitude are important in life. Personality plays an important role in how an individual adapts to different situations, works with others and shapes their behaviour. Personality traits are genetically determined, and can be assessed using psychological instruments. The most common way of assessing personality traits is with the five-factor model, which consists of five dimensions: openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism. Each of these traits can be categorized as either "high" or "low," and they help to define and explain an individual’s behaviour and preferences. For example, an individual who scores high on the openness to experience factor is likely to be creative and intellectually curious, whereas one who scores low on this trait may be more traditional and less imaginative. In addition, people’s personalities are shaped by their environment and experiences. Research has shown that individuals’ personalities can be altered through experiences such as learning, stress, trauma, and drug or alcohol use. People can also change their behaviour and preferences to adapt to different situations. For example, an individual who is naturally introverted may become more extroverted when interacting with people who are more outgoing. Overall, personality is a highly complex psychological phenomenon, and can be difficult to assess and understand. Research suggests that there are both biological and environmental influences on personality, and that the traits developed throughout our life shape how we interact with and perceive the world around us.
