Personality and assessment
Book • 1968
In 'Personality and Assessment', Walter Mischel critiques traditional personality psychology by highlighting the influence of situational cues on behavior.
He argues that behavior is not consistently expressed across different situations due to underlying traits but is instead shaped by situational factors.
The book proposes a dynamic approach to understanding personality, focusing on how individuals interpret and interact with their environment.
It also introduces the concept of 'if-then' behavioral signatures as a way to capture personality consistencies in context.
