Part 1: Let’s take the “Four Questions” approach to discussing Cattell, Eysenck, and Allport.

  1. Discuss a specific concept, term, idea, or perspective you found surprising or interesting from either Chapter 16 or Chapter 17 and why you were drawn to it. Pull relevant quotes from your reading so that your instructor and peers can search for them and learn more.
  1. Evaluate why this idea is important. What impact has it had on our understanding of personality?
  1. Apply this idea to some specific aspect of your life or the world as you see it around you.
  1. Ask a question. What curiosities has this idea raised for you?

Part 2: The image above, of the stereo equalizer, is an apt visual aid for describing the Five Factor Model (FFM). The FFM posits that everyone has five settings, each slider representing one of the 5 factors. You can be “high” in any of the five traits or “low” in them or anywhere in the middle.  How your equalizer is “set” is what creates your personality.

To find out how your equalizer is set, take the Truity Big Five Personality Test. It takes about 5-10 minutes depending on how long you contemplate each question. Your results will be presented in chart form, where you can “see” your equalizer settings. You’ll also see percentages associated with each dimension. (You do not need to purchase anything to “unlock” your full results. This free chart and the percentages are enough!)

  1. Share your “equalizer settings” by plotting your Truity profile on the following chart. You can copy and paste this into your reply – just type in an “X” where you fall on that dimension, corresponding with your Truity results (we probably shouldn’t breech Truity’s copyright, or else we’d just be screenshotting the chart and sharing that!).

Closed to Experience ————————–Open to Experience

Disorganized ————————————Conscientious

Introverted ————————————–Extroverted

Hostile ——————————————-Agreeable

Neurotic——————————————Emotionally Stable

  1. Now, reflect a bit about your results by considering the following.
  •  
    • Do you agree with this profile?
  •  
    • If you were to sum up your personality in one sentence, using this profile, what would that sentence be?
  •  
    • Identify the one or two traits that are the most “extreme” (the ones that come closest to either pole, either very high or very low).
  •  
    • How do these “extreme” traits manifest in your life? Are they helpful or harmful…or a little of both? Give specific examples from your central point of view (your life experience) to illustrate.
  •  
    • Identify any score that is “in the middle.” How does “being in the middle” for this trait manifest in your life? Would you agree or disagree that being “in the middle” helps you flex better to specific situations that call for you to behave differently than normal?
  •  
    • In your reading, you also learned about the HEXACO model, which is essentially the Big 5 with the addition of a sixth dimension (Honesty/Humility). The Truity questionnaire doesn’t measure that one, but if it did, where do you think you would fall on that dimension? What layer would this add to your understanding of your personality?

Part 1: Research suggests that bulimia nervosa may be a culture-bound syndrome (Keel & Klump, 2003). Instances of anorexia are noted throughout the non-Western world, but bulimia tends to only be prevalent in Western cultures. Why do you think this is? If culture-bound syndromes tell us something about the culture in which they are found, what does the specific prevalence of bulimia say about Western culture? Bring in scholarly sources to support your perspective.

Part 2: Considering the category of substance-related and addictive disorders:

Identify one thing you learned in this unit’s reading (the text or the DSM-5 study guide) that you found interesting or that challenged something you believed and discuss your thinking on it (be specific and resonant).

Ask a question you still have about substance-related and addictive disorders.

Part 3: Earlier in our course, you learned about the recovery approach to mental health care and applied it in various clinical contexts. Here, let’s think about the recovery model as applied to both eating disorder and substance use disorders.

First, consider the three tenants of recovery: Person-centered, client-driven, and strengths-based (vs. illness-centered, practitioner-driven, and deficit-based).  

Then, identify one of the best-practice treatments for eating disorder andone of the best-practice treatments for addiction discussed in your learning resources for this unit.

Then discuss whether you think each of those best-practice treatments is in alignment with or divergent from the recovery model, in what ways it is so, and how a practitioner using the recovery model might blend the two perspectives (recovery model + best practice therapy) to treat eating disorder and addiction.
