In this Assignment, you will explore how various Learning Theory approaches, processes involved in
motivation and emotions, and the development of “self” have influenced your personality development.
While you will be asked to share your experiences, you must connect your personal observations to
what you have learned from the assigned Learning Resources.
Review Chapter 13:
Focus on how learning theory approaches such as Behaviorism and Social Learning Theory can
help you understand personality development. Think of examples of how related concepts (e.g.,
classical conditioning, reinforcement, observational learning) have shaped your personality.

Think about how motivation and personality factor into setting goals.
Consider the stages of the emotion (appraisal, physical responses, facial expressions, nonverbal
behaviors, and motivation to share the emotional experience) and think about how you would use
these stages to describe an emotional experience you have had, and the possible lasting impact
of emotional experiences (e.g., adaptive functions).
Review Chapter 14:
Focus on concepts related to the “self,” including self-esteem, self-schema, self-knowledge, self-
discrepancy theory, relational selves and the additional presentation of self-efficacy, which was
first presented in Chapter 13 with Social Learning Theory.
Note: While this assignment asks you to consider personal experiences and factors that have influenced
your development, the content of your responses should be primarily focused on connecting the
personal experiences to the content in the assigned readings, which is how the responses will be
evaluated.
In a 2- to 3-page paper, address the following:
Explain which Learning Theory concept (e.g., classical conditioning, reinforcement, observational
learning, etc.) you consider to be the most dominant in influencing one aspect of your personality.
Provide at least one specific example of the application of the concept to support your position.
Explain one motivational strategy that you have used to achieve a goal, and how it can be observed
as a characteristic of your personality.
Describe how an emotional experience you have had followed each of the stages of emotion, and the
lasting impact the experience had on your personality.
Provide an example of how your self-concept has impacted your self-efficacy in a domain, and then
describe how your self-efficacy in the domain has in turn had a lasting effect on your self-esteem.

In this Assignment, you will explore how various Learning Theory approaches, processes involved in
motivation and emotions, and the development of “self” have influenced your personality development.
While you will be asked to share your experiences, you must connect your personal observations to
what you have learned from the assigned Learning Resources.
Review Chapter 13:
Focus on how learning theory approaches such as Behaviorism and Social Learning Theory can
help you understand personality development. Think of examples of how related concepts (e.g.,
classical conditioning, reinforcement, observational learning) have shaped your personality.

Think about how motivation and personality factor into setting goals.
Consider the stages of the emotion (appraisal, physical responses, facial expressions, nonverbal
behaviors, and motivation to share the emotional experience) and think about how you would use
these stages to describe an emotional experience you have had, and the possible lasting impact
of emotional experiences (e.g., adaptive functions).
Review Chapter 14:
Focus on concepts related to the “self,” including self-esteem, self-schema, self-knowledge, self-
discrepancy theory, relational selves and the additional presentation of self-efficacy, which was
first presented in Chapter 13 with Social Learning Theory.
Note: While this assignment asks you to consider personal experiences and factors that have influenced
your development, the content of your responses should be primarily focused on connecting the
personal experiences to the content in the assigned readings, which is how the responses will be
evaluated.
In a 2- to 3-page paper, address the following:
Explain which Learning Theory concept (e.g., classical conditioning, reinforcement, observational
learning, etc.) you consider to be the most dominant in influencing one aspect of your personality.
Provide at least one specific example of the application of the concept to support your position.
Explain one motivational strategy that you have used to achieve a goal, and how it can be observed
as a characteristic of your personality.
Describe how an emotional experience you have had followed each of the stages of emotion, and the
lasting impact the experience had on your personality.
Provide an example of how your self-concept has impacted your self-efficacy in a domain, and then
describe how your self-efficacy in the domain has in turn had a lasting effect on your self-esteem.
