The object and the domain of the psychology of personality being less well defined and agreed upon than in other sciences, to discuss successfully the present situation of the methodology of the evaluation of the personality supposes the prior clarification of a certain number of questions. This is done by conceiving of the psychology of personality as of an empirical science and by addressing what seems to be the four major relevant questions: 1) the major issues in the psychology of personality, 2) the major questions of the assessment of the individual personality, 3) the sources and methods of gathering data in this discipline, and 4) the process of clinical judgment.
与其他科学相比,人格心理学的研究对象和领域的界定及共识程度较低。要成功讨论人格评估方法的现状,就需要预先澄清一些问题。这可以通过将人格心理学视为一门实证科学,并探讨以下四个主要相关问题来实现:1)人格心理学中的主要问题;2)个体人格评估的主要问题;3)该学科中数据收集的来源和方法;4)临床判断的过程。
