ANS: B
PTS: 1
A-HEAD: Take a Look at the Word
REF: 2
FEEDBACK: Your personality can limit or expand your options and choices in life, prevent you from
PR
sharing certain experiences, or enable you to take full advantage of them. It restricts, constrains, and
holds back some people and opens up the world of new opportunities to others.

b. Personality shows that we are deterministic, mechanical, and do not change throughout

our lives.

memories.
d. Personality is entirely based on how we were treated during our childhood years.
ANS: A
ED
PTS: 1
A-HEAD: Take a Look at the Word
REF: 4
FEEDBACK: One psychologist suggested that we can get a very good idea of the meaning of
personality if we examine our intentions—what we mean—whenever we use the word I. Our
personality can also be defined in terms of the impression we make on others—that is, what we appear
??
to be.
4. Around 1500, the Latin word persona was used to refer to:
a. a person's mechanistic behavior. c. a mask used by actors in a play.
b. predictable and automatic responses. d. a robe worn by noblemen.
ANS: C
, PTS: 1
A-HEAD: Take a Look at the Word
REF: 4
FEEDBACK: The word personality goes back to about the year 1500 and derives from the Latin word
persona, which refers to a mask used by actors in a play. It's easy to see how persona came to refer to
our outward appearance, the public face we display to the people around us.

PTS: 1
A-HEAD: Take a Look at the Word
REF: 5

personality can vary with the situation. Yet although it is not rigid, it is generally resistant to sudden
changes.
IA
6. The personality of an individual is .
a. completely based on self-perception c. a unique cluster of characteristics

REF: 6
AP
FEEDBACK: Personality is an enduring and unique cluster of characteristics that may change in
response to different situations. We see similarities among people, yet we sense that each of us
possesses special properties that distinguish us from all others.

a. They tend to portray an idealized self-image of themselves.
PR

OV
A-HEAD: Personality and the Social Media
REF: 6
FEEDBACK: Increasingly, many of us display another face, not in person, but through the Internet on
social networking Web sites such as Facebook. Some research suggests that most people are honest
about their online faces. A recent large-scale study in Germany found that many people have a
tendency to present themselves online as being much more emotionally stable than they really are
ED
(Blumer & Doring, 2012).
8. Research that was conducted in diverse countries, such as the Netherlands, Serbia, Hong Kong, and
Korea, suggests that those who have a high level of social network use are than those who use it
less.
a. more introverted
??
b. less irritable

d. more emotionally stable
