Who has NOT propounded any theory of personality?

A.

B. F. Skinner

B.

Sigmund Freud

C.

Gordon Allport

D.

Raymond B. Cattell

Correct option is A

B. F. Skinner is renowned for his work in behaviorism, focusing on learning and conditioning rather than personality theory. Skinner developed concepts like operant conditioning and reinforcement but did not formulate a personality theory. In contrast, Freud, Allport, and Cattell made significant contributions to personality theories: Freud with psychoanalysis, Allport with trait theory, and Cattell with the 16 Personality Factors.
Information Booster:
1. Skinner’s focus: Learning and observable behavior.
2. Freud’s contribution: Theories of id, ego, superego.
3. Allport introduced trait theory.
4. Cattell developed factor analysis for personality traits.
5. Skinner’s work aligns more with behavior modification than personality structure.
Additional Knowledge:
· Sigmund Freud (b): Developed psychoanalytic theory, emphasizing unconscious motives.
· Gordon Allport (c): Introduced individual traits and cardinal traits in personality.
· Raymond B. Cattell (d): Pioneered the 16-factor personality model using factor analysis.
