Who defined, "Personality is that which permits a prediction of what a person will do in a given situation”?

Personality psychology is the study of individual differences in behavior, thought patterns, and emotional reactions. Many psychologists have contributed significantly to defining and understanding personality. Key Points

• The quote "Personality is that which permits a prediction of what a person will do in a given situation" was actually defined by Raymond Cattell.
• He was a key figure in the study of personality and developed the 16 Personality Factor (16PF) model.
• His approach was based on understanding how traits influence behavior and how these traits can predict future actions in various situations.

Hint

• Eysenck – While Eysenck developed influential theories on personality, the quote in question is not from him.
• Allport – Allport was an important figure in personality psychology, but he is not the source of this particular quote.
• Watson – As a behaviorist, Watson did not focus on personality traits in the same way and is not associated with this definition.

Hence, the correct answer is Cattell.
