After participating in this course, you will be capable of relating various paradigms of the description or explanation of personality to each other. You will have noted differences and contradictions as well as coherence and supplementation. Based on these observations, you will have developed your personal integrative model to guide and orient your action and interaction as psychologist. 

Drawing on McAdams and Pals' integrative model of personality, we will intensively explore the described levels of personality. They will be related to each other, searched for contradiction and possibilities of complementation. Empirical data from various levels will be collected and multivariately analysed.

Small group and plenary discussions, presentations, data collection and analysis
