The goal of this course is to evaluate contemporary solutions to important problems in personality psychology, with special attention to historical context and anticipated future directions. The course provides an understanding of what problems personality psychologists are working on, an evaluation of how far personality researchers have gone, and speculation about what will be next. Extra special attention will be paid to the density distribution model.
