When exploring the different viewpoints on personality, an interesting comparison is between theorists like B. F. Skinner, who based their ideas solely on observations made within the laboratory, versus theorists like Carl Rogers, whose ideas were formulated out of their daily practice working as a therapist. On the surface these two approaches may seem to be vastly at odds with one another, but are they really if you delve deeper?
In this essay you will have the opportunity to compare and contrast these two influential theories of personality within the context of answering the following question:
“Can personality be explained as the sum of a person’s learning experiences?”
To respond to this question, compare and contrast how Skinner and Rogers have attempted to explain human personality and growth and argue your own position. In your introduction you’ll need to outline the significance of this topic to society. For this, consider why the question might be important to you in your future application of psychology within a professional context.
