The mission of the field of personality psychology are the following.

Explanation:

  • Personality psychology enables us to see the many qualities we share in common with others, as well as the differences among us that serve to provide us with the distinctive features of our mental lives.
  • An individual's personality is the combination of traits and patterns that influence their behavior, thought, motivation, and emotion. It drives individuals to consistently think, feel, and behave in specific ways; in essence, it is what makes each individual unique.
  • Personality concerns the most important, most noticeable, parts of an individual's psychological life. Personality concerns whether a person is happy or sad, energetic or apathetic, smart or dull. Over the years, many different definitions have been proposed for personality. Most of the definitions refer to a mental system—a collection of psychological parts including motives, emotions, and thoughts.
  • "Personality is the entire mental organization of a human being at any stage of his development. It embraces every phase of human character: intellect, temperament, skill, morality, and every attitude that has been built up in the course of one's life."Personality is the essence of a human being."
  • "An individual's pattern of psychological processes arising from motives, feelings, thoughts, and other major areas of psychological function. Personality is expressed through its influences on the body, in conscious mental life, and through the individual's social behavior."

The mission, or the need, of the field of personality psychology, is to understand what determines an individual behavior, how an individual would behave in given circumstances, and also in knowing the differences between individuals or groups.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The personality of a person is the combination of his behavior, thinking pattern, emotional exhibits, and his likes and dislikes.
  • It tries to study the individual in context to his background which includes his social-cultural influences, his childhood experiences and his environmental influences.
  • It also studies the differences between individuals, group’s people and their approaches to life situations.
  • It guides a psychologist to foresee how and why would a person or a group of people may or may not behave in a particular way towards a particular situation.

Hence, this is the mission or the importance of personality psychology.

What factors have tended to untie the Arab nations since independence?
12345 [234]
The Arab nations were actually divided in a sense but they always tended to unite for the cause of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Although each Arab nation strives to conquer the Arab world, they still remain prideful in national identity and assertion of rights to the Holy Land.

wariber [46]

Answer:

Free enterprise systems, refers to an economy where

the market determines prices, products, and services

rather than the government. In other words, businesses

and services are free of government control. As the

statement mentions it allows the supply and demand of

consumers to determine the success or failure of a

business. We can grab for example Steve Jobs, one

of the creators of the multi-billion company called

Apple. An economy where enterprises are forced to

follow the government rules, tend to limit

themselves to provide just the necessary. On the other

hand, if a business goes to the free market it opens

a whole new world of possibilities. When apple first

appeared in the market it wasn't very popular, but

then started growing popularity with its products

and slogans. Apple needed to become a free enterprise

business for it to become what it is now. Without

rules or restrictions, businesses could grow much more;

but always taking to detail that the supply and demand

will be the changing factor of success or failure.

Answer:

B. Undernutrition

Explanation:

The reason why A. malnutrition is not correct is that malnutrition arises from lacking a few or one specific nutrient in your body.

Undernutrition arises because of inadequate intake of dietary energy regardless of specific nutrients.

While we use malnutrition in day to day use as an umbrella term for inadequate diets that is not the real meaning of that word.
