Who propounded the 'self' theory of personality ?

  • A.Kretschmar
  • B.Allport
  • C.Eysenck
  • D.Roger

Answer: D

The self theory of personality was put forward by Carl Rogers, who held that the self-concept and the gap between the real and ideal self decide adjustment. Kretschmar classified body types, Allport is known for trait theory and Eysenck for the dimensional theory. The answer is Rogers. Rogers's person-centred theory takes the self as the centre of personality: the self-concept develops from experience, and distress comes when the experience is out of line with it. Kretschmar's types were based on body build, Allport's traits on personal dispositions and Eysenck's types on extraversion and neuroticism.
