Week 3 Discussion
Week 3 Discussion Psychology Discussion Requirements1. You are required to have 3 posts in each discussion and these three posts must be made on three separate days. The first post is the initial response to the question that appropriately and completely addresses the topic. This must be completed by 11:59 p.m.(EST) Thursday night. It is best to post it at the beginning of the week. The remaining two posts are responses to two different classmates. The first response to a classmate is due Saturday at 11:59 p.m.(EST) and the second response to a classmate is due on Sunday at 11:59 p.m.(EST). Responses to me do not count as a response to another student; however, I will interact with each of you throughout the course. I encourage you to respond back. If you do not post on three separate days you will lose points (possible 15 point deduction).*There will be a deduction of 5 points per day that the initial post is late. Posts are not accepted after the week closes on Sunday night. 2. Your initial post (your response to the topic) must contain a citation. It is your ideas supported by research. Please refer to the APA Power Point in the Start Here section of the classroom for information on proper formatting. There will be a deduction of 20 points for failure to cite a source within your initial post and to provide a reference at the end of your initial post. 3. Your initial post must be a minimum of 300 words and each response must be a minimum of 200 words. Please double-check your word count. Only posts that meet the word count requirements receive credit. 4. Post your word count at the end of each post. There will be a 5 point deduction for each failure to provide a word count.
5. Please use spell-check and proper grammar. Points will be deducted for each spelling and grammatical error up to 10 points for each post.Psych Discussion PostDue ByCited Source â In Text and ReferenceWord CountPoint Value

Professionalism is a very serious matter in your online class at Keiser University and in the field of psychology. Our mission is to provide you with an education that prepares you to succeed in the workplace and in graduate programs. Please use the following guidelines in our discussion forum and in all communication at Keiser University:I will âlistenâ to others respectfully.
I recognize that online learning is devoid of physical cues that often support communication and will strive to use language that clearly expresses my views.
I will strive to utilize language that is thoughtful, respectful, and collegial when communicating with my fellow students.
When I disagree with someone, I will critique his/her ideas in a respectful and constructive manner.
I will try to understand other peopleâs behaviors and perspectives rather than simply criticize them.
I will avoid stereotypes and humor that is disparaging of others.
I will avoid texting language, slang, or other non-professional communication.
Week 3 Topic:The HumanistsThe humanistic personality theorists placed a great deal of emphasis on the concept of self-actualization. Review the theories of Abraham Maslow (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp 250-255) and Carl Rogers (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp 274-276). Compare their respective approaches to the concept of self-actualization. How might this concept differ from the way that psychodynamic theorists approached individuation? What application of these theories do you see to your own personality development? Schultz, D. P. & Schultz, S. E.. (2017). Theories of personality.

Week 3 Final Project – Submission
Final Project DirectionsFor your final project you will write a research paper in APA style. (See detailed directions below for formatting and remember you can view the APA video in the Start Here section.)Your completed paper will be due on Sunday night, the last night of Week 3 at 11:59 PM, EST.
The final project is due by Sunday of week 3. Some personality theories, such as those of Gordon Allport (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 196-204) and Raymond Cattell (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 216-221), place more focus on heredity and genetics as the primary guiding force in personality development. One of the more prominent of these types of theory in recent research has been that of Robert McCrae and Paul Costaâs Five-Factor model of personality development (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 230-238).
For your final project please follow the link (below) and take the personality test. Once you have your results discuss them in terms of the Five-Factor Model as discussed by McCrae and Costa (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 230-238)https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/personality-quiz/

Being on time helps you get a higher score.*There will be a 100 pt. penalty for plagiarizing. This means that if you plagiarize work you will receive a Zero. If in doubt, cite, cite, cite.
Last, but not least, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.Parenthetical (In-Text) CitationsA parenthetical (in-text) citation is when you place the source in parenthesis ( ) right after the sentence you cited instead of waiting until the end of the paper. It helps the reader to know exactly what sentences and paragraphs are taken from particular sources.
Place the author’s name and the source’s date of publication in parentheses immediately after the end of the cited material. If it is a direct quote, include the page number as well. For example:
“Psychology is defined as the science of behavior and mental processes” (Coon, 2012 p. 12).
If you have paraphrased the information then you do not need to include the page number, unless the text is a book or you are referencing a specific aspect of the work. Helpful TipsAlways use spelling and grammar check
Make sure you indented the paragraphs (5 spaces in)
Balance â Each paragraph should be similar in length
Review the APA video and view resources in Student Resources under Course Home and the Writing Help tab
You can send your paper to the Keiser OWL (Online Writing Lab) for review and to ask for help.
Week 3 Summary
Week 3 Summary Chapter 7: Gordon Allport: Motivation and PersonalityChapter 7 begins the section dealing with the genetic/hereditary approaches to personality theory. The first one to be explored is Gordon Allport, and the chapter opens with a discussion of his life (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 193-196). The chapter goes on to explore the nature of personality (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 196-197), including the roles of personality traits (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 197-198) and motivation (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 198-200) in development. These concepts are then explored in how personality develops through childhood (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 200-202) an into adulthood (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 202-203). As in previous chapters, this one then explores assessment techniques (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 204-205 and areas for research (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 205-210).Chapter 8: Raymond Cattell, Hans Eysenck, The Five-Factor Theory, HEXACO, and the Dark Triad The genetics approach continues with exploration of several more theoretical frameworks. It begins with a look at the life and approach of Raymond Cattell (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 214-221). This includes an exploration of his approach to personality traits (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 216-218), including source traits (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 218-219) and dynamic traits (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 219-221). Again, this chapter includes assessment techniques (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp.222-223) and research areas (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 223-225). Next the chapter explores the theory of Hans Eysenck (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 226-230), including exploration of the three dimensions of personality, extraversion (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p. 228), neuroticism (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p228-229), and psychoticism (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p. 229-230). The chapter moves on to explore the work of Robert McCrae and Paul Costaâs Five-Factor Model (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 230-238). The chapter concludes with brief descriptions of Michael Ashton and Kibeom Leeâs HEXACO: Six-Factor Model (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 239-240) and Delroy Paulhus and Kevin Williamsâs Dark Triad of personality (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 240-241).Chapter 9: Abraham Maslow: Needs-Hierarchy Theory Chapter 9 begins exploring the humanistic approaches with the theory from Abraham Maslow. Maslowâs life (Schultz & Schultz, 20171, pp. 247-250) led him to explore the development of personality via motivation and progression through a hierarchy of needs (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 250-255) towards self-actualization (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 253-255). This includes a description of how to study self-actualizers (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 255-260). The chapter concludes with a look at assessment tools in Maslowâs theory (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 261-262) and areas for research in Maslowâs theory (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp.262-266).Chapter 10: Carl Rogers: Self-Actualization Theory Chapter 10 continues our exploration of the humanistic theories with that of Carl Rogers. It opens with an exploration of Rogersâs life (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 271-274). Rogers also explored self-actualization (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 274-276). His focus was on the experiential world (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p. 276) and development of the self through childhood using positive regard (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p. 277), conditions of worth (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p. 278), incongruence (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p. 279), and congruence and emotional health (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p. 279). Like the other humanistic theories Rogers focused on healthy personalities (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 279-281). This chapter also explores assessment techniques (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, p. 282-283) and research on the theory (Schultz & Schultz, 2017, pp. 283-287).Due this week:Weekly Discussion Post- initial topic plus 2 student responses (graded)
