Alfred Adler's Personality Theory

Book Summary by: AcaDemon     


Alfred Adler developed a theory of personality that describes how social interaction, birth order, life style, and family
influences combine to form the personality of a person. Besides these things he also used the terms "finalism," which describes a goal or ambition that drives a person, and " superiority," which is a persons drive to be perfect. Different studies will are used to verify and expand his original work.
