Describe a friend using Allport's trait theory. Include the use of common traits and the three types of individual traits
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER: Answer will vary but will include a description of common traits and the three individual traits: cardinal, central, and secondary traits of the friend. The common traits named should reflect the individual's culture, while the core of the personality will be reflected by a listing of central traits, such as cheerful, optimistic, intelligent, etc. The secondary traits will describe more superficial traits, such as food or political preferences. The friend may or may not have any cardinal traits, which are characteristics that are overwhelmingly dominant.
