For this assignment I am going to describe my own personality and compare it to what my friend thinks of my personality. I am also going to describe the evolution of behaviour and why people behave in the way they do.

Everyone has a different type of behaviour for different places, e.g. if you were at a friends house you would behave in your normal way but if you were going out somewhere formal you would behave in the manner expected of you. There are different ways to behave for everything you do. You are taught to behave in the way you do from the moment you are born. These behavioural traits are usually passed down through the generations in your family. People started to behave in their own way many years ago when they decided that things they were doing weren't right, e.g. stealing, this is behaving in a bad way and everyone gets told not to do it. Throughout the years as more and more things were considered behaving wrong they invented rules, regulation and discipline, these were made to help people behave in the same way as much as possible, as they thought it was the best way to behave.

   There are 4 main personality types

• Stability
• Introverted
• Extroverted
• Neuroticism

everyone gets placed into these categories in one way or another,

Stability: This is when you are:

• Calm
• Have a good sense of Leadership
• Reliable
• Carefree
• Even-tempered
• Lively
• Controlled
• Easy going

Introverted: This is when you are,

• Calm
• Passive
• Unsociable

• Reserved
• Thoughtful
• Pessimistic
• Peaceful

Extroverted: This is when you are,

• Sociable
• Active
• Outgoing
• Optimistic
• Talkative
• Impulsive
• Responsive
• Changeable

Neuroticism: This is when you are,

• Moody
• Touchy
• Anxious
• Restless
• Rigid
• Aggressive
• Sober
• Excitable

If someone acts or behaves in a different way to you, you would probably think they were weird, but to them they are behaving in the way they have been taught and think are right. People behave in the way they do because of the laws that have been enforced on them by their family, friends and people of a higher authority. Rules have been made up and changed as the years went on, and as they were made up they were enforced on people. Everyone behaves in a different way to everyone else and normally people that act differently do this because their brains aren't fully developed, or they are disabled in one way or another. People react to this in different ways, some people stare at them because they don't understand why they are doing the things they do, where as other people just accept that this is the way they behave and treat them as they would everyone else. Everyone has different means of taking on board what other people are doing whether it is in a good or bad way. As I said at the beginning everyone has different ways of behaving and some people need to learn to accept that they do act differently to get along with each other in a civilised manner.
