Pathways to Individuality Evolution and Development of Personality Traits


Free Download Arnold H. Buss PhD, "Pathways to Individuality: Evolution and Development of Personality Traits"
English | ISBN: 143381031X | 2011 | 261 pages | PDF | 3 MB
In Pathways to Individuality, Arnold H. Buss examines the personality traits we share with other animals and the traits that set us apart and make us distinctly human. Buss explains that within those general traits there is much variability, and those traits become distinct during the crucial periods of human development. This is what makes us individuals. Compared with other species, humans enjoy an extended period of childhood, during which personality traits become ingrained and differentiated: Our early interactions with our social environment influence and sharpen the behavioral pathways that distinguish our individuality. In turn, we seek to manipulate those environments we are drawn to and that help shape our individuality.

Psychology of Personality Islamic Perspectives


Free Download Amber Haque, "Psychology of Personality: Islamic Perspectives"
English | ISBN: 1737281627 | 2022 | 276 pages | PDF | 8 MB
The International Association of Islamic Psychology has republished this classic in Islamic Psychology literature which has been out of print for almost a decade. First published in 2009, the original volume edited by Amber Haque and Yasien Mohamed is now available again, with a new foreword by Abdallah Rothman. Psychology of Personality: Islamic Perspectives is the first edited volume of selected papers on human nature and personality from an Islamic perspective. It includes contributions from authors who were pioneers in the field such as Malik Badri, Syed Naquib al-Attas, and Laleh Bakhtiar, to name a few. The book is an attempt at clarifying the conceptual confusion that resulted in keeping psychology separate from religion, separate from a soul. The authors have incorporated religious and transcendental concepts that shape human personality, which are based on the Qur’ān and the works of early Muslim scholars. The text is timely as modern psychology is demonstrating a new interest in indigenous and alternative perspectives of psychology. This book is suitable for students of Islamic psychology as well as researchers and scholars whose works are related to the Islamic psychology of personality.

Personality in Intimate Relationships Socialization and Psychopathology


Free Download Personality in Intimate Relationships: Socialization and Psychopathology By Luciano L’Abate (auth.)
2005 | 482 Pages | ISBN: 0387226052 | PDF | 4 MB
Personality in Intimate RelationshipsSocialization and PsychopathologyLuciano L’Abate, Georgia State University, AtlantaFour decades of contributions to personality theory and family practice have earned Luciano L’Abate a worldwide reputation for therapeutic insights. Now he expands on his pathbreaking relational theory of personality to apply it to the twenty-first-century family in all its configurations. Personality in Intimate Relationships showcases L’Abate’s trademark elegant style and provocative ideas in his most accessible work to date.Based on Axes I and II of the DSM-IV, the book describes relationships along a readily identifiable continuum ranging from optimal functionality to severe pathology, linking the author’s conceptual framework to specific diagnostic strategies, therapeutic interventions, and prevention programs. L’Abate’s theory not only integrates individual and family theories and seemingly disparate schools of thought, but is also inclusive of nontraditional relationships-grandparent/grandchild dyads, adoptive families, same-sex couples, and others-that are often left out of the family literature.Among the key areas explored in the book: * Selfhood and self-differentiation * Confrontation and sharing of hurt feelings * Negotiating, bargaining, and problem-solving * Dealing with distance and closeness * Intimacy and the ability to loveIn addition, the reader is referred to complementary online appendices that supply helpful questionnaires, workbooks, and ideas for further applications.Personality in Intimate Relationships offers fresh perspective to all frontline practitioners as well as investigators in this area. It is also ideal for graduate courses in abnormal psychology and personal development.

Personality Types Using the Enneagram for Self-Discovery


Free Download Personality Types: Using the Enneagram for Self-Discovery By Don Richard Riso, Russ Hudson
1996 | 544 Pages | ISBN: 0395798671 | EPUB | 4 MB
" The Enneagram is an extraordinary framework for understanding more about ourselves. No matter from which point of view we approach it, we discover fresh conjunctions of new and old ideas." So writes Don Riso in this expanded edition of his classic interpretation of the Enneagram, the ancient psychological system used to understand the human personality. In addition to updating the descriptions of the nine personality types, Personality Types, Revised greatly expands the accompanying guidelines and, for the first time, uncovers the Core Dynamics, or Levels of Development, within each type. This skeletal system provides far more information about the inner tension and movements of the nine personalities than has previously been published. This increased specificity will allow therapists, social workers, personnel managers, students of the Enneagram, and general readers alike to use it with much greater precision as they unlock the secrets of self-understanding, and thus self-transformation.
