There are slightly different definitions. Just look at all of the fore fathers of psychology: Freud, Adler, Rogers, Jung, Skinner, Ellis... They all dealt with personality in some sense. Each viewed personality slightly different though.

Theories in Personality is a great book that would help if you can get your hands on it.
