Answer to Question 1
The dimensional approach assumes that a person's typical behavior is produced by a combination of differing strengths of behaviors along several definable dimensions. These include emotional stability, anxiousness, and social introversion, among many others. The dimensions are the same for everyone. People differ in terms of how much they have of each trait, not because of an underlying dysfunction that causes disordered behavior. Abnormality is determined through statistical criteria by comparison to people in general. The prototypal approach classifies types by describing the idealized combination of personality characteristics that occur regularly together, based on observation. It is likely that no member of a defined group will have all of the characteristics of the defined prototype. There also is often much overlap between categories.
