The Assignment:
For this Assignment, complete the following steps:
Step 1
Review the various trait theories, paying special attention to the Big Five page 408.
Step 2
Choose a fictional character from a book, tv show, or movie. Think about how you would rank that character along each of the components of the five-factor model pg 408.
Step 3
In an essay, thoroughly discuss each of the following:
Give some brief background about the character (no more than one paragraph).
Using the five-factor model (the Big Five pg 408), provide two (2) observations for how your character fits EACH factor. For example, if I chose Winnie the Pooh, I would provide two observations about him that explain why I believe he scores high on openness, two observations for why I believe he scores low on conscientiousness, two observations for why I believe he scores low on extroversion, etc. You should have a total of ten (10) observations.
Your submission should be in essay format—no bullet points.
