| | Personality Processes |
 | | Although it is not necessary to know the specifics of a neural system to test the implications of a conceptual system, by limiting theorizing to known neural architectures, personality theories become more constrained. |  | | What is more interesting is the genetic nature of the covariances between traits, the way in which one's environment contributes the remaining 30-70% of the variance (Brody 1993; Plomin 1994), and thus, the way that genotypes lead to phenotypes. |  | | That the proposed biological mechanisms for these conceptual systems differ from investigator to investigator should not be taken as a sign of theoretical weakness but rather a sign of the complexity of the purported systems. |

 | | People with compulsive personality are highly cautious, weigh all aspects of a problem, and pay attention to every detail, making it difficult for them to make decisions and complete tasks. |  | | They also display signs of “magical thinking” by saying they can see into the future or read other people’s minds. |  | | Typically lacking in self-confidence, the dependent personality rarely initiates projects or does things independently. |

| | Personality disorders |
 | | Personality is formed by the ongoing interaction of temperament, character, and environment. |  | | These assumptions can be successfully challenged by cognitive-behavioral methods. |  | | Personality disorders are thought to result from a bad interface, so to speak, between a child's temperament and character on one hand and his or her family environment on the other. |
