  • Compare The Personality Theories Of George Kelly And Sigmund Freud

    2396 Words  | 10 Pages

    This essay aims to compare the cognitive and psychoanalytic personality theories of George Kelly (1955) and Sigmund Freud (1917) respectively. Although these two theories, based on personality, differ in the sense that the cognitive theory has many links to humanism and thinking of a person as a whole entity, it does follow and make reference to science, maths and physics which is similar to that of the psychoanalytic theory. It is also worth mentioning that George Kelly (1955) practised the psycho therapeutic theory of Freud’s (1917) before initiating his own cognitive method. In addition, this essay will also discuss what is meant by personality psychology and why, in fact, we study it and why said theories are important when assessing psychological personality disorders. Personality psychology is the study of a human individual as a whole (Boeree, 2006).

Some psychologists have even argued that personality does not exist; that people change behaviour over time and across various situations.
