This article is intended for persons over 18 years of age

Have you already turned 18?

The main character traits of a person influence not only the formation of his personality, but also relationships with other people, building a career and mutual understanding in the family. A person’s qualities and their significance cannot be ignored when you choose your path in life. You need to be able to identify strengths and understand that there may also be weaknesses that need to be improved. Then you can become a comprehensively and personally developed person who can conquer more than one peak.

Character Traits of a Successful Person

About what are and what are the qualities in a successful adult, we will understand in order. First of all, let's clarify what character is. After all, we are talking about a set of traits that are constant. It is the traits of a person that influence his behavior, attitude towards others and towards himself, as well as towards work and the world around him. The description of character from the point of view of psychology focuses on individual indicators by which one can predict and predict reactions, behavior and actions. For example, the desire to learn new things, sociability and openness instill in a person the desire to travel.

A character trait is one of the most important components of personality, since it contains the basis of a person, as well as a way to solve problems. It is difficult to list an exact list of traits with explanations. We are born with some traits, while others we acquire in the process of life (and they are the most changeable). The character of a person is not only a list of individual traits, but also a whole psychological system.

The list of persistent traits and their relationship to various systems is as follows:

	Trait, manifestation
In relation to yourself	Selfishness, demandingness, modesty, self-sufficiency, criticality
With other people	Openness-closedness, honesty-lies, rudeness-politeness
	Diligence and laziness, initiative and passivity, formality and responsibility
To the outside world	Accuracy, negligence

Also, the division of character traits occurs according to the principle of cognition or emotionality:

• intellectual include criticality, craving for knowledge, resourcefulness, analyticity, flexibility and practicality;
• emotional include passion, sentimentality, impressionability;
• strong-willed include confidence, courage, uncertainty, perseverance;
• Moral values ​​include kindness, openness, deceit, cruelty, and humanity.

To make it easier to explain a person's behavior and his actions, psychologists divided traits into instrumental and motivational. In the first case, we are talking about one's own style, unsurpassed, and in the second case, what drives a person and makes him perform this or that action.

It's no secret that a person develops in society. In this regard, traits are divided into typical and individual. Typical is understood as a set of standard qualities that are inherent in a certain group of people (family, team, population of one city). If a certain trait is used by a person most often, sometimes in non-standard situations, then it becomes individual and distinguishes the person from the rest.

Positive character traits of a person

The list of positive and good character traits of a person may differ, depending on what type of communication is in question. So, in work the following are considered positive qualities:

• determination;
• persistence;
• responsibility;
• hard work;
• organization;
• attentiveness.

In communicating with other people, such traits as honesty, openness, humanity, tolerance, justice, loyalty and sociability are important. Only in the presence of such manifestations, it is possible to build strong and fulfilling relationships with other people. In the process of personality formation, special attention is paid to morality and humanity. Distortion of these traits or a large number of shortcomings cannot allow a person to develop. When compiling a list for your resume, you should indicate your positive qualities that are important to the employer:

• perseverance;
• determination;
• responsibility;
• honesty;
• communication skills;
• stress resistance;
• attention to detail and perfectionism;
• self-criticism;
• hard work.

Negative character traits of a person

Negative and negative character traits of a person are formed if the attitude towards oneself is better than towards other people. Speaking about what bad qualities there are, we can highlight the following:

• pride, self-confidence;
• selfishness;
• laziness;
• irresponsibility;
• envy;
• stinginess;
• contempt;
• coarseness;
• aggression.

The more negative qualities are developed, and the less attention a person pays to self-improvement, which is fraught with conflicts with the outside world.

Human character based on facial features

How to determine and how to recognize a person’s character by facial features? After all, not everyone knows that thin lips or a cut of the eyes can determine what quality is inherent in us, how we can act in a given situation. You can recognize features by the shape of your face:

• Confidence is determined by the ratio of the width and length of the face. If the width is less than 60% of the length, then we are talking about cautious and unsure people;
• Friendliness can be determined by the position of the eyebrows. For example, if the eyebrow line is higher, then we are talking about increased facial expressions and sociability;
• a wide arrangement of eyes is inherent in people who more often forgive other people's oversights and mistakes;
• a small distance between the upper lip and nose is inherent in people with a sense of humor, but sometimes jokes are taken personally. a long distance speaks of sarcasticness, flatness of humor;
• full lips speak of a more open and sociable person, and thin lips speak of isolation and secrecy;
• a thick fold on the eyelid is characteristic of individuals who have analytical thinking, and a thin fold or its absence is characteristic of those who impulsively perform actions;
• Charismatic individuals have a deeper and more unusual eye color.

The shape of a face can tell just as much about its owner. For example, a round face is found in more emotional, sexual individuals with whom you can build a serious relationship. Egoistic, practical and methodical people have an oval face shape, but it is difficult to build relationships with them. Triangular faces are found in hot-tempered and creative people. Square - for smart, aggressive and dominant people.

It is also worth paying attention to such facial features that indicate the presence of certain qualities:

• creative people have a curved forehead, and progressive ones have a straight forehead;
• thin eyebrows for indecisive individuals, thick eyebrows for persistent and decisive ones;
• sympathetic and kind people have expressive eyes, nervous ones have small ones;
• Closely spaced eyes indicate good reaction and concentration; widely spaced eyes are characteristic of people with a broad outlook;
• a straight nose is characteristic of individuals who are distinguished by kindness, warmth, they set a high bar for themselves, and a large nose speaks of rage. An upturned nose occurs in sociable people, and a hump on the nose occurs in strong-willed individuals;
• modest people have small mouths, and talkative people have big mouths;
• full lips for sensitive people, small ones for egoists, raised corners indicate optimism, and downturned ones indicate that the person is almost impossible to please;
• A sociable person has wrinkles around the eyes, and wrinkles between the eyebrows indicate determination and hard work.

And these are not all the ways to learn about a person’s qualities and behavior without personal communication. There are traits that are determined alphabetically (letters in the first and last name), by date of birth, there is even a connection with certain diseases and favorite shades. So, if a person loves the color yellow, then he is characterized by optimism, openness and honesty, and lovers of purple are sensitive, emotional and not understood by everyone.

All these factors together leave an imprint on our personality. We no longer have to talk about ourselves and undergo psychological tests so that we can understand what kind of personality we are talking about. A wrinkle on the forehead, favorite shade, eye shape, smile, zodiac sign and clothing preferences can describe everything. A little more attention to those around us, and it will become easier to find a common language or see hidden qualities. Everything is in our hands, or rather, the eyes, face shape and lips.

But there is also evil morality. She is selfish, selfish, does everything only for herself, asserts only her own value and exclusivity. It encourages deception, theft, and hatred.

Self-esteem is self-respect and a high appreciation of one’s qualities, an understanding of value and significance. A person who has this quality is unlikely to decide on a low act, deception, or even ordinary swearing in a public place. This is beneath his dignity. For such a person, it is not even the opinion of others that is important, but his own assessment of his actions.

— Positive character traits in men and women

Each person has his own character. And the characters of men and women are generally different. What positive human qualities are inherent in women and men? How do the same qualities manifest themselves in representatives of the strong and weak half of humanity?

Man as a creation of nature is represented by a special, multifaceted being. He is able to think, analyze, feel, perform actions and various actions that bring benefit and harm to both himself and the world around him. His behavior is influenced by such concepts as morality and morality. All this creates the character of homo sapiens, makes a person a person.

A person’s character is a set of stable mental processes (properties) that influence his behavior and are manifested in his actions. Each of us has our own set of qualities that drive different actions. Some character traits depend on the type of nervous system, others are formed under the influence of the environment.

Each person has his own set of qualities, the list of which includes positive and negative traits. They are formed under the influence of surrounding people and life circumstances. Depending on the state of the environment, society and the degree of its influence on the individual, good and bad character traits may prevail in people.

The presence and superiority of certain qualities in human character depends on many indicators: temperament, family, faith, geography of residence and, of course, gender.

A man and a woman are different not only in their external appearance, but also in their behavior patterns, which are influenced by their internal motivation. The description of the “correct” qualities of both sexes shows the similarities and differences in their characters.

- Positive trait of a person

The division into negative and positive qualities of a person occurs under the influence of public assessment. People themselves determine: "what is good and what is bad." What brings benefits, material and spiritual benefits, pleasure and joy, pleasant emotions, is considered good.

A person whose character contains many positive qualities is a role model. However, it is known that "there are no bad people." This means that the division into “+” and “-” qualities is conditional. It all depends on the system of relations between the individual and society.

In accordance with these indicators, 4 groups of character traits can be distinguished (since we are talking about positive qualities, only they will be indicated in each group and the list can be continued):

1) Attitude to society, team: sociability, collectivism, sensitivity, responsiveness, respect for people, kindness, goodwill.

2) Attitude to activity: hard work, conscientiousness, diligence, discipline, responsibility, perseverance in achieving goals.

3) Attitude towards yourself: self-esteem, modesty, pride, self-criticism, honesty.

4) Attitude to things: thrift, accuracy, generosity, selflessness.

Each person has certain traits that predominate, which makes him different from others. The personal merits of some people make others admire them and follow their example.

If you ask a man and a woman what qualities they consider the best, the answers will be different. Men value spiritual manifestations in a woman:

Women value in men:

1) Moral qualities.
2) Loyalty. A faithful companion is a rarity, but every woman dreams of meeting just such a person. This is an important side of the relationship between a man and a woman, because such a negative trait as jealousy is associated with it. Loyalty speaks of the reliability and constancy of a person with this quality.
3) Care, honesty - this is openness, the inadmissibility of deception in relation to others. This quality speaks of decency, morality and strong character.
4) Generosity is the willingness to share with others, absolutely not wanting to receive something in return. Even the most selfless people appreciate this quality, because it shows the breadth of the soul.
5) They value good character. Kindness is hard for any girl to resist.
6) Confidence. Women are crazy about confident men.
7) Intelligence, ambition. A man who strives for self-improvement is very attractive to girls.
8) Self-sufficiency and communication skills. Girls like guys who will always find a common language with other people.

To the characteristics of men and women we can add all the qualities of a good person that attract them to each other.

By studying the personality of a person, be it a woman, a man or a child, one can always identify a bad tendency to unseemly behavior due, for example, to errors in upbringing or psychological trauma. But even bad heredity can be protected. Let's consider the main negative traits of human character.

Authoritarianism

The desire to dominate in everything, ignoring any needs of other people. An explicit or hidden demand for submission and discipline from everyone with whom a person intersects. Other people's opinions are not taken into account, any disobedience is suppressed without an attempt to find a mutually beneficial solution. It is believed that this is a typical negative trait of the Russian character.

Aggressiveness

The desire to conflict with others. In early childhood, this is an obligatory negative character trait of a child learning ways to protect his interests. Provocative, sometimes deliberately false statements, elevated tone, and insults are typical for an aggressive adult. Sometimes attempts are made to influence the opponent physically.

Gambling

A painful desire to achieve a set goal, regardless of the size of the risks, ignoring one’s own and others’ logical arguments about the excess of the amount of spending over the value of the desired result. Often causes situations leading to death, loss of health or significant financial losses.

Greed

Pathological desire for personal material gain in any situation. Getting profit at any cost becomes the only source of positive emotions in life. At the same time, the duration of pleasant sensations from the benefits received is extremely short-lived - due to the uncontrollable constant desire to enrich oneself even more.

Apathy

Lack of emotional response to most external stimuli due to a particular temperament or due to the body’s protective reaction to stress. It is one of the reasons for the impossibility of achieving even simple goals due to the inability or unwillingness to concentrate and make volitional efforts.

Disorderly

Negligent fulfillment of obligations due to unwillingness to act according to rules already known to everyone or lack of understanding of the algorithms necessary to quickly and least costly achieve existing goals. Often this is a typical negative character trait of a woman who has just escaped from excessive parental care.

Indifference

A real or consciously demonstrated lack of interest in a specific subject, object, event, responsibilities due to innate emotional coldness, experienced severe stress or, instilled from infancy, a sense of superiority over people with a different social status, a different faith, nationality, race.

Irresponsibility

A consciously chosen, imposed during upbringing or conditioned by moral immaturity position of refusal to real awareness of the consequences of one’s own actions, reluctance to make decisions that affect one’s own and others’ quality of life. In difficult everyday situations, active actions are not taken due to the expectation that the problem will resolve on its own.

Facelessness

The absence of individual traits, which is why an individual subject is easily “lost” in the general mass of people like him. In the process of communication, the “gray man” does not evoke sympathy due to his fixation on uninteresting topics; in a team he is uninitiative, boring, afraid of innovations and resists them in every possible way.

Ruthlessness

Emotional indifference to other people's troubles, inability or unwillingness to sympathize, sympathize with people in particular and living beings in general, experiencing physical or emotional pain. Sometimes it is deliberate inhumanity in actions that lead to suffering and even death of the objects chosen as victims.

Rudeness

Intentional or unconscious violation of norms, the sequence of actions adopted in a given society in relation to a specific situation. The reason for deliberate cheekiness may be the desire to provoke a conflict or draw attention to one’s own person, unconsciously - errors in upbringing, emotional immaturity.

Talkativeness

A painful need to constantly participate in a dialogue with one or more interlocutors, regardless of the content of the conversation, the degree of enthusiasm of the other participants, or the relevance of the conversation. The main goal of such an interlocutor is not to obtain new information, but to play the role of a storyteller when contacting someone. At the same time, he can disseminate information that others would prefer to keep secret.

windiness

Inability to keep any promises and take into account other people's interests, lack of ability to move for a long time to achieve one goal, desire for constant change of circle of friends and partners. Lack of principles and clear behavioral boundaries, rapid fading of interest in a specific activity or person.

Lust for power

A passionate desire for control over everyone and the expectation of unquestioning obedience, the desire for unlimited power, especially over the more educated and skilled. Intoxication with one’s own superior position in situations where others are forced to seek help or seek protection or material support.

Suggestibility

In pathological form, this is a subconscious tendency to perceive behavior imposed from outside without one’s own conscious comprehension and weighing the results of one’s actions performed under the influence of someone else’s authority. However, reduced suggestibility can cause learning difficulties.

Vulgarity

Inability to find a balance between originality and vulgarity in communication, when choosing clothes, social guidelines, and so on. For example, during a dialogue, the interlocutor speaks in a raised tone, is mannered, and does not disdain dirty jokes. When choosing an outfit, he prefers flashy things, and the components often do not fit well with each other.

Stupidity

The inability or unwillingness to determine logically correct conclusions even from the simplest everyday problems, the tendency to see the grain of wisdom in pseudoscientific and populist statements, the inability to subject information from sources that are independently elevated to the status of authoritative to a reasonable critical analysis.

Pride

Confidence in the social, moral, mental insignificance of others, the inability to forgive for personal and other people’s mistakes, denial of the possibility of other subjects of society having worthy characteristics. It develops against the background of distortions in upbringing, personality degradation due to illness, immaturity of the individual, coupled with high social status.

Coarseness

Reluctance to adhere to the polite format of communication with interlocutors accepted in normal society due to personality deformation due to illness, injury, stress or the frequent need to take a defensive position when territory and rights are encroached upon. Typical manifestations: communication in a raised voice, rudeness, obscene language.

Greed, stinginess

The desire to minimize costs even at the expense of health, basic hygiene and common sense. A pathological pursuit of material stability can manifest itself in the form of a refusal to get rid of garbage, junk, or ignoring reasonable requests from a loved one to purchase essentials.

Cruelty

The desire to cause discomfort to living subjects for the sake of personal moral satisfaction. The impact on the victim can be both intangible - in the form of insults and refusal to satisfy some important emotional needs, and physical - through infliction of pain, torment, and encroachment on life.

Forgetfulness

Inability to remember some data necessary in everyday life, a combination of actions to achieve a certain goal, an algorithm for starting or turning off a device. It occurs due to age-related changes in the brain and information overload. It may be a consequence of a stressful situation that you want to forget.

Addiction

The desire to derive pleasure from performing actions or using a certain substance, even if the source of pleasant emotions harms health, relationships with others, leads to large financial expenses, pushes to crime due to the desire to achieve a “high”, in the absence of legal access to it.

Envy

Inability to enjoy any personal benefits, achievements, qualities. The tendency to constantly compare the values ​​of oneself and others. Moreover, the “crumbs” on the other side always seem larger, tastier and more desirable than their own “placers”. In a pathological form, it deprives one of cheerfulness and the ability to soberly evaluate one’s own and others’ merits.

Complexity

Constant belittlement in one’s own eyes of one’s own natural talents, trained abilities, denial of the value of personal achievements, inability to force oneself to declare personal achievements in a circle of authority figures. Formed due to overly strict upbringing, psychological trauma or disease of the nervous system.

tediousness

The habit of lecturing everyone, everywhere, repeatedly discussing the same topic, despite the obvious lack of interest in it among the people who are trying to be drawn into dialogue. The reason lies in the pathological love of attention and endless conversations on any topic, even provided that the instigator of the conversation is a complete layman on the topic being discussed.

Anger

An emotional manifestation of strong dissatisfaction with something, a landmark indicating the presence of clearly uncomfortable conditions for a person. In the absence of actions that eliminate the cause of the feeling, over time it can push one to commit an offense, so manifestations of anger should not be ignored.

Spoiled

A bad habit is to demand the fulfillment of your desire as soon as possible, without taking into account the capabilities of the person to whom the claim is made. Refusal to control and restrain one's own needs, to tolerate the slightest inconvenience, and to personally exert emotional and physical effort to achieve what one wants.

Laziness

Lack of desire to strain for personal needs, tendency to spend idle time all day long. The behavior reveals a desire to obtain comfort at the expense of the work of others, a deep aversion to useful activities even in minimal quantities. When applying for a job, this negative character trait should not be indicated on your resume.

deceitfulness

Consciously systematically expressing false information to interlocutors for slanderous purposes, for one’s own benefit or to disguise personal failures in some activity. The pathological form is inherent in insecure individuals who try to impress others with fictitious stories about themselves.

Hypocrisy

Feigned assurances of love, sincere admiration and goodwill towards the interlocutor during a conversation with him. The purpose of such behavior is ingratiation and the desire to flatter for one’s own benefit, while hiding true, perhaps even malicious, sentiments towards the participant in the dialogue or the object of the conversation.

Flattery

A tendency to excessively constantly praise out loud the real and imaginary merits and virtues of others, for the sake of one’s own self-interest. The object of exaltation can also be obviously negative actions, the actions of an influential person, specially whitewashed by the flatterer and voiced by him as the only correct solution in the situation under consideration.

Curiosity

In a pathological form, this is the desire to find out information of interest, regardless of decency, personal feelings of those being questioned and the situation of the situation in which communication takes place. The reason for unhealthy curiosity is a painful desire to be aware of even those events that are not related to the person showing interest.

Pettiness

The habit of attaching great importance to one’s insignificant statements and actions. The widespread emphasis on one's imaginary achievements as opposed to the truly important and heroic actions of those around them. Attention to ordinary details to the detriment of values, the desire to obtain reports on household expenses down to “one thousandth”.

Vindictiveness

The tendency to focus personal attention on all small and large troubles, everyday conflicts, and invented grievances, in order to be sure to repay each of the offenders a hundredfold over time. In this case, the duration of the time interval from the moment of receiving a real or imaginary insult does not matter.

Impudence

Unceremonious behavior in any situation, the desire to achieve what you want with minimal costs and “over the heads” of others. Such behavior is formed due to improper upbringing, due to a difficult childhood or, conversely, due to spoiling, which has reinforced the habit of always getting what you want at any cost.

Arrogance

The perception of the majority of others as subjects of an obviously lower category due to an imaginary difference in social status or real differences in material, national, racial or other characteristics. The reason may be a defensive reaction to wounded pride in the past or distortions in upbringing.

Annoyance

Inability or unwillingness to independently deal with emerging problems, have fun or relax. The reason may lie in emotional immaturity, fear of loneliness, a desire to increase self-esteem through active participation in the lives of other people, even if they experience obvious discomfort from this and openly declare it.

Narcissism

Unreasonable and groundless praise of oneself, narcissism under any circumstances, the desire to embellish the results of one’s actions and the actions taken themselves, selfishness, indifferent attitude not only towards strangers, but also close people, interest only in personal comfort and benefit.

Negligence

Reluctance to qualitatively fulfill assumed or assigned obligations, neglect in behavior with people in everyday or professional relationships, insufficient attention to trusted values, inability - due to poor education or personal deformation - to understand the importance of diligence when working on something.

Touchiness

Increased negative reaction to everyday troubles due to hypertrophied selfishness. It is because of him that you want the world to spin at your feet, and those around you, forgetting about their own needs, to live up to your expectations around the clock and all year round: they were polite, generous and caring, and strived to ensure the comfort of others.

Limitation

Confidence that the true picture of the world is accessible only to you, and other explanations of the structure of the universe and the principles of interaction between man and the environment are a complete invention of narrow-minded louts. It occurs due to insufficient education, a congenital developmental defect that prevents the adequate assimilation of educational information.

Alarmism

The tendency to accept as reality the imaginary catastrophic consequences of any, even minor incidents in one’s own life and the world as a whole. It is a manifestation of bad upbringing by a reinsurer, an overly violent fantasy or a disorder of the nervous system due to stress or illness.

vulgarity

A penchant for pretentious outfits, demonstration of real or ostentatious material security through the acquisition of unnecessary luxury items. Or, and sometimes both, a passion for dirty jokes, obscene anecdotes, often voiced in a completely inappropriate environment for the sake of causing a feeling of awkwardness among the majority of listeners.

Irritability

A negative reaction to a stimulus, expressed in excessive expression of emotions, the intensity of which does not correspond to the strength of the influence of a factor that is unpleasant for some reason. The cause of irritability can be external or internal, caused by overload of the nervous system or exhaustion of the body by illness.

Extravagance

Inability to rationally spend income, including the desire to systematically or constantly make acquisitions for the sake of the process itself, and not for the purpose of exploiting the purchased item or thing. It is based on the desire to feel like “the ruler of the world”, to correspond to the status of a financially secure person.

Jealousy

Showing dissatisfaction or distrust of a subject who has a certain value for the jealous person. It is expressed by suspicion of infidelity or a greater emotional predisposition towards another person (not only a spouse, but also a mother, sister, friend may be in the place of the accused - the list can be endless).

Self-criticism

The habit of justifiably and unreasonably convicting oneself of many sins of varying magnitude. For example, insufficient attention to fulfilling duties, although in reality a person gives his all at work or in relationships. Possible reasons: low self-esteem, actively supported by an interested environment, perfectionism.

Self-confidence

Unreasonable exaltation of one's abilities, supposedly allowing one to cope with a certain or any task.

Based on inexperience, dependence on the desire to live on the brink of a foul.

Weakness

Lack of ability to perform volitional effort for the sake of a desired goal or to resist dangerous, illegal temptations, morally degraded individuals. Tendency to submit to other people's decisions, even when they require serious sacrifices. Such a negative character trait of a man can make him an object of ridicule in the team.

Vanity

The desire to receive praise for real and imaginary merits. The desire first of all to have a positive image, and not to be worthy of compliments. Indiscriminate quality of voiced approvals - flattery is also perceived favorably. Moreover, it is not always possible to distinguish it from sincere statements.

The desire to act only in accordance with one’s own ideas about the correctness of the chosen path, rejection of authorities, ignoring well-known rules purely because of the habit of acting as one has decided.

But if you write about self-confidence, but in reality you are talking to an employer hesitant and shy, then this will further distance you from your desired position. There is no point in ascribing to yourself qualities that you do not actually possess.

The presence of positive character traits in a person has a great influence on the quality of his life. That's why it's like that it is important to develop them in yourself.

When a new personality is born, it receives a unique character as a gift. Human nature can consist of traits inherited from parents, or it can manifest itself in a completely different, unexpected quality.

Nature not only determines behavioral reactions, it specifically influences the manner of communication, attitude towards others and oneself, and towards work. A person's character traits create a certain worldview in an individual.

A person’s behavioral reactions depend on character

These two definitions create confusion because they both play a role in shaping personality and behavior. In fact, character and temperament are heterogeneous:

1. Character is formed from a list of certain acquired qualities of a person’s mental make-up.
2. Temperament is a biological quality. Psychologists distinguish four types of it: choleric, melancholic, sanguine and phlegmatic.

Having the same temperament, individuals can have completely different characters. But temperament has an important influence on the development of nature - smoothing or exacerbating it. Also, human nature directly affects temperament.

What is character

Psychologists, speaking about character, mean a certain combination of individual traits that are persistent in their expression. These traits have the maximum impact on the behavioral line of the individual in diverse relationships:

• among people;
• in the work team;
• to one's own personality;
• to the surrounding reality;
• to physical and mental labor.

The word "character" is of Greek origin and means "to mint." This definition was introduced into everyday use by the natural scientist of Ancient Greece, the philosopher Theophrastus. Such a word really, very accurately defines the nature of an individual.

Theophrastus was the first to coin the term "character"

The character seems to be drawn as a unique drawing; it gives birth to a unique stamp, which is worn by the individual in a single copy.

To put it simply, character is a set, a combination of stable individual mental characteristics.

How to understand nature

To understand what kind of nature an individual has, you need to analyze all his actions. It is behavioral reactions that determine examples of character and characterize personality.

But such a judgment is often subjective. A person does not always react the way his intuition tells him. Actions are influenced by upbringing, life experience, and customs of the environment where the person lives.

But you can understand what kind of character a person has. By observing and analyzing the actions of a certain person for a long time, it is possible to identify individual, especially stable traits. If a person behaves the same way in completely different situations, showing similar reactions, makes the same decision, this indicates the presence of a certain nature.

Knowing which character traits are manifested and predominant in an individual, one can predict how he will manifest himself in a given situation.

Character and its traits

A character trait is an important part of a personality; it is a stable quality that determines the interaction between a person and the surrounding reality. This is the defining method of resolving emerging situations, therefore psychologists consider a personality trait as a predictable personal behavior.

Variety of characters

A person acquires characteristics of character throughout his entire life; it is impossible to classify individual traits of nature as innate and characterological. To analyze and assess a personality, a psychologist not only determines the totality of individual characteristics, but also identifies their distinctive features.

It is character traits that are defined as primary in the study and compilation of psychological characteristics of a person.

But, when defining and assessing a person, studying behavioral traits in social terms, the psychologist also uses knowledge of the meaningful orientation of nature. It is defined in:

• strength-weakness;
• breadth-narrowness;
• static-dynamic;
• integrity-contradiction;
• integrity-fragmentation.

Such nuances constitute a general, complete characteristic of a particular person.

List of personality traits

Human nature is a complex combination of unique traits that forms a unique system. This order includes the most striking, stable personal qualities, revealed in gradations of human-society relationships:

Relationship system	Inherent Traits of an Individual
	Pros	Minus
To self	Pickiness	Condescension
	Self-criticism	Narcissism
	Meekness	Boastfulness
	Altruism	Egocentrism
To the people around you	Sociability	Closedness
	Complacency	Callousness
	Sincerity	deceitfulness
	Justice	Injustice
	Community	Individualism
	Sensitivity	Callousness
	Courtesy	Shamelessness
To work	Organization	Laxity
	Mandatory	Cluelessness
	Performance	Sloppiness
	Enterprise	Inertia
	Hard work	Laziness
To items	Economy	Wastefulness
	Thoroughness	Negligence
	Neatness	Negligence

In addition to the character traits included by psychologists in the gradation of relationships (as a separate category), manifestations of nature in the moral, temperamental, cognitive and sthenic spheres were highlighted:

• moral: humanity, toughness, sincerity, good nature, patriotism, impartiality, responsiveness;
• temperamental: passion, sensuality, romance, liveliness, receptivity; passion, frivolity;
• intellectual (cognitive): analytical, flexible, inquisitive, resourceful, efficient, critical, thoughtful;
• sthenic (volitional): categoricalness, persistence, obstinacy, stubbornness, determination, timidity, courage, independence.

Many leading psychologists are inclined to believe that some personality traits should be divided into two categories:

1. Productive (motivational). Such traits push a person to perform certain actions and actions. This is the goal-feature.
2. Instrumental. Giving personality during any activity individuality and method (manner) of action. These are methods-traits.

Gradation of character traits according to Allport

Allport's theory

The famous American psychologist Gordon Allport, an expert and developer of gradations of an individual’s personal characteristics, divided personality traits into three classes:

Dominant. Such traits most clearly reveal the behavioral form: actions, activities of a certain person. These include: kindness, selfishness, greed, secrecy, gentleness, modesty, greed.

Ordinary. They manifest themselves equally in all numerous areas of human life. These are: humanity, honesty, generosity, arrogance, altruism, egocentrism, cordiality, openness.

Secondary. These nuances do not have a particular impact on behavioral reactions. These are not dominant behaviors. These include musicality, poetry, diligence, and diligence.

A strong relationship is formed between a person’s existing personality traits. This pattern forms the final character of the individual.

But any existing structure has its own hierarchy. The human warehouse was no exception. This nuance is traced in Allport's proposed gradation structure, where minor traits can be suppressed by dominant ones. But in order to predict an individual’s actions, it is necessary to focus on the entire set of personality traits.

What is typicality and individuality?

The manifestation of the nature of each person always reflects the individual and typical. This is a harmonious combination of personal qualities, because the typical serves as the basis for identifying the individual.

What is a typical character. When a person has a certain set of traits that are the same (common) for a specific group of people, such a warehouse is called typical. It is like a mirror, reflecting the accepted and habitual conditions of existence of a particular group.

Also, typical features depend on the warehouse (a certain type of nature). They are also a condition for the emergence of a behavioral type of character into the category of which a person is “recorded.”

Having understood exactly what characteristics are inherent in a given personality, a person can be drawn up an average (typical) psychological portrait and assigned a certain type of temperament. For example:

Positive	Negative
Choleric
Activity	Incontinence
Energy	Hot temper
Sociability	Aggressiveness
Determination	Irritability
Initiative	Rudeness in communication
Impulsiveness	Unstable behavior
Phlegmatic person
Perseverance	Low activity
Performance	Slowness
Calm	Inactivity
Consistency	Unsociability
Reliability	Individualism
Integrity	Laziness
Sanguine
Sociability	Aversion to monotony
Activity	Superficiality
Goodwill	Lack of persistence
Adaptability	Poor perseverance
Cheerfulness	frivolity
Courage	Recklessness in actions
Resourcefulness	Inability to concentrate
Melancholic
Sensitivity	Closedness
Impressionability	Low activity
Performance	Unsociability
Restraint	Vulnerability
Cordiality	Shyness
Accuracy	Poor performance

Such typical character traits, corresponding to a certain temperament, are observed in each (to one degree or another) representative of the group.

Individual manifestation. Relationships between individuals always have an evaluative characteristic; they are manifested in a rich variety of behavioral reactions. The manifestation of an individual’s individual traits is greatly influenced by emerging circumstances, the formed worldview and a certain environment.

This characteristic is reflected in the vividness of the individual's various typical features. They vary in intensity and develop individually for each individual.

Some typical traits manifest themselves so powerfully in a person that they become not just individual, but unique.

In this case, typicality develops, by definition, into individuality. This personality classification helps to identify the negative characteristics of an individual that prevent them from expressing themselves and achieving a certain position in society.

By working on himself, analyzing and correcting shortcomings in his own character, each person creates the life he strives for.
