Cattell and Eysenck

Cattell and Eysenck are two prominent early contributors to the trait theory of personality. In this paper:

  • Discuss the general foundational position of trait theory and compare/contrast Cattell’s and Eysenck’s theories.
  • Examine the assessments derived from each theory and provide an overview and critique of each one.
  • Finally, reflect on and describe how these theories are utilized in your field, including the use of these assessments.

The paper should be 1,750-2,100 words (or 5-6 pages) and have a minimum of three scholarly journal articles or book references in addition to the textbook.

In your professional experiences, you may have experienced managers that were not great at communicating with you as employees. For one reason or another, the manager was unable to effectively communicate with his or her employees. A large part of communication is not what the manager says, but his or her nonverbal communication and listening skills.

First, provide summary details about a situation in which you had a manager or other leader who was not good at nonverbal communication or was not an active listener. What was the conversation about? Explain the details that led up to the conversation and the main topic of the conversation.

Then, select one of the following bullet points:

  • Why do you feel the leader or manager was not actively listening? What did the leader or manager do in regard to nonverbal communication to show you that he or she was not actively listening or was not effectively communicating with you? How did you react to the situation? Support your response with research.
  • What could the manager do in order to improve his or her active listening skills and body language in conversations such as you discussed? What would you have done differently if you were the manager? Support your response with research.

United Flight 15 from New York’s JFK airport to San Francisco uses a Boeing 757-200 with 182 seats. Because some people with reservations don’t show up, United can overbook by accepting more than 182 reservations. If the flight is not overbooked, the airline will lose revenue due to empty seats, but if too many seats are sold and some passengers are denied seats, the airline loses money from the compensation that must be given to the bumped passengers. Assume that there is a 0.0995 probability that a passenger with a reservation will not show up for the flight. Also assume that the airline accepts 200 reservations for the 182 seats that are available.Find the probability that when 200 reservations are accepted for United Flight 15, there are more passengers showing up than there are seats available. Table A-1 cannot be used and calculations with the binomial probability formula would be extremely time-consuming and tedious. The best approach is to use statistics software such as Minitab, SPSS or even Excel. Is the probability of overbooking small enough so that it does not happen very often, or does it seem too high so that changes must be made to make it lower? Now use trial and error to find the maximum number of reservations that could be accepted so that the probability of having more passengers than seats is 0.05 or less.

77% of the participants aged 50 and up indicated that maintenance costs are worse for HEVs. An association between age and participant perception of how HEVs are powered was also found using a chi-squared test. Figure 3 shows 82% of the participants aged 20-50 and 50% aged 50 and up correctly indicated that HEVs are powered by an internal combustion engine with a p-value of .05. Figure 3: How Are HEVs Powered? Figure 4 shows 57% indicated that HEVs need to be plugged in overnight for recharging and 34% indicated that nothing extra (compared to CVs) needs to be done to recharge the batteries for the electric motor. Figure 4: How Are The Batteries Charged?
