"Social Cognitive Approach to Personality - The approaches that lay emphasis upon the role of people’s cognitions in determining their personalities. - Cognitions include: people’s thoughts, feelings, expectations, and values. - These approaches consider the “inner” variables to be important in determining one’s personality. - These approaches emphasize the reciprocity between individuals and their environment.
