Answer to Question 1

Answer: Psychodynamic and neo-analytic thinkers did not conduct personality science in the same way researchers do today. Psychodynamic theory used a big-picture approach to understand personality, relying far less on empirical data than modern personality researchers. The goal was to develop large theoretical models that could explain a wide range of clinical observations. Many concepts of the psychodynamic theory are difficult to measure because people cannot just report on their unconscious.

Answer to Question 2
