Practicing Success
The behavior of a person in a temple or courtroom is reflective of which of the following approach of personality? |
Type approach Traits Approach Interactional approach None of the above |
Interactional approach |
The interactional approach holds that situational characteristics play an important role in determining our behaviour. People may behave as dependent or independent not because of their internal personality trait, but because of external rewards or threats available in a particular situation. The crosssituational consistency of traits is found to be quite low. The compelling influence of situations can be noted by observing people’s behaviour in places like a market, a courtroom, or a place of worship. |
