Sociological Conceptions of Personality.

Ventimiglia, Joseph C.; DiRenzo, Gordon J.

Social Behavior and Personality, v10 n1 p25-37 1982

Identified and synthesized sociological conceptions of personality using propositions derived from definitional and theoretical themes in the literature. Tested propositions in content analyses of textbook references to personality. Analyses suggested that the trait-bound conception of personality has diffused from classical personology to sociology.
