| | Trait theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Trait theory is an approach to personality theory in psychology. | | | Correspondingly, trait theory has come under attack from those who preferred a more qualitiative, intuitive approach to personality analysis, and psychometrically inclined personality theorists are often accused of reifying as traits measurements that are simply mathematical abstractions. | | | For example, there was an early trait theory of leadership that went through several conceptual stages through different researchers. |

| | TRAIT |
| | Even though Trait Theory, one of the earliest leadership theories gave way to the Behavioral Theory and to Contingency Theory, the research on traits has not been abandoned. | | | Trait theory is a more sophisticated, specific version of the great-man theory. | | | It is undoubtably true that the personality or motivational orientation of the leader plays its part, for it will affect the likelihood of his attaining a leadership position and the way he will behave in that position, and hence, the likelihood of his success. |

| | Trait Theory |
| | Link between traits and situations specified: more limited and narrower a trait is, more likely it will predict a behavior; not everyone consistent on the same trait; traits give a strong influence on an individual’s behavior when situational influences are less likely to affect personality. | | | Personality traits exert a stronger influence on an individual’s behavior when situational influence is less powerful. | | | The narrowing and more limited trait is, the more likely it will predict behavior. |

| | Statistical Methods for Rater Agreement |
| | The trait being measured, degree of evidence for cancer, is continuous. | | | For example, raters who seem to define the trait much differently than other raters, or use a particular category too often, can have this pointed out to them, and this feedback may promote their making ratings in a way more consistent with other raters. | | | For example, to one rater Intelligence may mean 50% verbal skill and 50% mathematical skill; to another it may mean 33% verbal skill, 33% mathematical skill, and 33% motor skill. |

| | One of the earliest trait theories was introduced by a colleague of Sigmund Freud's by the name of Carl Jung. | | | This is not the place to go into details, but one aspect of the theory concerned traits that Jung felt were inborn. | | | They are especially interested in finding which traits are broad and possibly genetically based, as opposed to ones that are rather peculiar and change easily. |

| | The theory proposes that the natural character traits A and N are indispensable to human development, being related to the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, respectively. | | | In our model, individuals have discrete, innate personality traits that are readily identifiable, leading to the formulation of discrete personality types. | | | The innate stereotypic acts associated with the trait include flaunting body posturing, expansive arm gestures, bowing, colorful self-adornment, and a natural attraction to the limelight of personal recognition. |

| | A second tenet is that the essence of a kind is responsible for the traits typically associated with the members of that kind. | | | Kitcher is correct that biologists attempt to explain the traits of organisms in two ways: sometimes they cite the ultimate, or evolutionary, cause of a trait; other times they cite a structural feature of an organism with that trait. | | | A problem with Kitcher's approach is his characterization of biological practice. |
