Expert Solution

Allport said that individuals possess a number of traits which are dynamic and that determine their behaviour in such a way that people approach different problems with similar plans.

The cardinal traits are highly generalized disposition that indicate the goal around which the person's entire life seems to revolve.

Less pervasive in effect, but yet quite generalized disposition are called central traits.

The least generalized disposition of a person are called secondary traits. They are very personal and unique to the person.

Allport considered traits to be variables that played a role between the stimulus and the reaction of the person. Thus any change in the traits would elicit a different response to the same situation.

Allport classified the different traits seen in people into three categories and they are cardinal traits, central traits and secondary traits.
