Description

Individual Learners considers significant recent research into the link between personality and learning, and includes discussion of topical and controversial issues such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, Fragile X syndrome, genetic factors in aggression and gender differences in motivation. The book considers fundamental issues in the study of personality and provides an up-to-date review and evaluation of the continuing nature-nurture debate. It then examines five traits that can have an impact upon learning: aggressiveness, anxiety, achievement motivation, self-confidence and shyness.
