Choose one of the two case studies (Rachel or Michael) outlined below to analyse. You need to link the characteristics of the case studies to two personality theories of your choice.
You do not have to restrict yourself to theories from the lectures. Anything that is of interest/can be applied as long as it is of psychological origin and relevant in this essay.
You can choose two theories from a broader umbrella theory (e.g., analyse two trait theories). You can also choose two theories from different approaches (e.g., use one theory from the nomothetic, and another one from the idiographic approach). You will need to be critical and analytical in your approach, so do make sure that the theories you choose are suitable for this. You also need to back up your observations with relevant research.
