consistent personal characteristics
Psychoanalytic - as devised by Freud,attempts to explain personality on the basis of unconscious mental forces
Psychoanalytic Non-Freudian - Adler saidhumans are motivated by social interest
andJung said a collective unconscious isrepresented by universal archetypes

Four Theories continued
Humanistic - reject psychoanalytic notions and
view each person as basically good and that
people are striving for self-fulfillment
Soci0-Cognitive - each person has a unique
personality because of our personal histories
and interpretations shape our personalities

Working with Children who display aggressive personalities
Aggressors are attention seekers and they enjoythe attention they gain from being aggressive.
Never ignore inappropriate aggressions and do not get drawn
into a power struggle with the aggressor.
Be firm but gentle in your approach , the aggressor can handle
the tough side of you but they will succumb to gentleness and it is really what they want - the right kind of
attention.
Deal one to one with the aggressor and devise a plan for him/her to take control of their own behavior.

Aggressive Personalities continued
Establish a one to one relationship with the child that exhibits an aggressive personality, success will soon follow.
Provide opportunities for your students to act appropriately and get
Some attention, give them responsibilities and provide praise.
Catch students behaving well and provide immediate, positive feedback. In time, you will see that the aggressive behaviors will start to diminish.
Provide activities that bring forth leadership in a positive way, always let students know that you care, trust and respect them.
Provide as many methods as you can for students to take ownership of their behavior and probe them as to how it should have been handled.
