Abstract

This article describes nine ways in which biological approaches can inform issues of central and long-standing concern to personality psychologists. These include: (a) developing an adequate description of human nature, (b) providing several solutions to the puzzle of within-species genetic variability, (c) identifying the most important ways in which individuals differ, (d) giving precision to the concepts of adaptation and adjustment, (e) identifying the origins of personality dispositions, (f) providing insight into personality development and the life course, (g) providing conceptual and evidential standards for invoking personality types as opposed to personality dimensions, (h) addressing the psychophysiology of personality, and (i) focusing attention on psychological mechanisms as evolved dispositional strategies.

摘要

本文描述了生物学方法可为个性心理学家长期关注的核心问题提供信息的九种方式。这些方式包括：(a) 对人性进行充分描述；(b) 为物种内基因变异之谜提供多种解决方案；(c) 确定个体差异的最重要方式；(d) 明确适应和调整的概念；(e) 确定人格特质的起源；(f) 深入了解人格发展和生命历程；(g) 为使用人格类型而非人格维度提供概念和证据标准；(h) 探讨人格的心理生理学；(i) 将注意力集中在作为进化的特质策略的心理机制上。
