A common person often defines personality by looking physical appearance in terms of being good looking, attractive, muscular body etc. The ability to communicate well in pleasant manner in addition to being good looking would make others say that the particular person has a wonderful personality and those who don't possess these qualities are considered to have poor personality. But scientifically this is not a true concept of personality. In fact, psychologists have given number of theories related to personality after deep research. Psychologist deny the fact that personality is all about the attractiveness of physical appearance because of two reasons.
Firstly, it limits the number and types of behaviour considered important and worthy for incorporation into the scientific study of personality. secondly, such notions carry the biasness implications that some people who have unique abilities and temperament traits is considered a good personality and not everyone. In this unit we will be dealing with the definitions of personality as well understand the whole concept with scientific temperament. We will also be looking the environmental factors that influence personality development.
