medical model
the origin and emergence of DNA (which attracks to itself all that it needs)
-big bang theory
three subdivisions of medical model
1. heredity
2. constitutional
3. neuropsychological
heredity
personality is caused at conception through traits that are GENETIC
constitutional
focuses on the end product of heredity
neuropsychological
brain and spinal cord structure effect personality development
8 people involved with Medical model
1. kallman
2. blueler
3. meehl
4. sheldon
5. ecalona
6. rimland
7. holfman
8. de young
3 heredity scientistic
1. kellman
2. blueler
3. meehl
2 constitutional scientists
1. sheldon
2. escalona
3 neuropsychological scientists
1. rimland
2. holfman
3. De young
kallman's Big five theory:ways in which people differ
1. extroversion
2. neuroticism
3. conscientiousness
4. agreeableness
5. openness
extroversion
social vs. withdrawn
neuroticism
anxious vs calm and self confident
conscientiousness
responsible and organized vs. lazy and impulsive
agreeableness
warm and cooperative vs. unpleasant and disagreeable
openness
imaginative vs narrow minded
flexible point of view
an interactional point of view

heredity sets limits

environment sets how close to the limits one can get
inflexible point of view
environment DOESNT matter

ALL about GENETICS inherited from parents
which 2 scientist were involved with flexible point of view
blueler and meehl
which scientist was invloved with the inflexible point of view
kallman
what are Sheldon's 3 basic body types
1. endomorphy
2. mesomorphy
3. ectomorphy
endomorphy
fat

extroverted / gregarious
mesomorphy
muscular

aggressive / assertive
ectomorphy
skinny/ normal

restrained / self conscious
2 ways in which Escalona measures personality
1. longitudinal
2. cross sectional
longitudinal personality measure
same group over time
cross sectional personality study
different group of people at the same time
De young's Volume theory off Kallman's "Big Five"
***all are increased volume***
1. extroverted
- processing rewards

2. neuroticism
- threat and punishment

3. conscientiousness
- voluntary control of behavior and planning

4. agreeableness
- intentions and mental state of others

5. openness
- NO change in volume
four types of neurotransmitters studied by Holfman
1. endorphins
2. dopamine
3. serotonin
4. norepinephrine
endorphins
bodys internal opiates
dopamine
associated with arousal and mental focus
serotonin
associated with calm and sleep
norepinephrine
associated with energy and alertness
Two different study approaches of neuropsychological model
1. neuroanatomical
2. psycho-chemical
6 important points about neurotransmitters
1. small about has a big affect
2. lock and key specificity(receptors)
3. associated with the sleep cycle
4. have profound effects on mood, thoguht, overt behavior
5. found in ALL major organs (brian, stomach, immune system, liver)
6. with EVERY thoguht ther is a molecule
Kallman
major traits are genetic

genes are what matters NOT experiences

***BIG 5*** (ways people differ)

people have variability
Blueler
flexible point of view
meehl
flexible point of view

stress diathesis model
stress diathesis model
stress bring on inherited propensity
sheldon
morphology

3 basic body types
escalona
longitudinal approach

traits persist
rimland
RAS theory

anatomical structure could play a role in personality development
de young
4/ 5 of the big five have volume differences
holfman
LSD studies (on self)

neurotransmitters
variable
factos on which people differ
variability
the amount or size of the differences in a group
correlation
a measure of the degree in which 2 variable over lap or share variability
