- QUOTE: Two dimensions by which we often assess people are strength and warmth.
Sub-dimensions of strength can include:
- Robustness: The ability to handle varying situations.
- Resilience: Getting up when you are knocked down.
- Courage: Facing danger and overcoming fears.
- Assertiveness: Speaking one's mind, demanding one's rights, etc.
- Independence: Not needing others to prop us up.
- Persuasiveness: Convincing others to do as you say.
- Dominance: Taking more time than others in conversation.
- Aggression: Fighting for what you want.
- Note that strength need not be admired and may be feared, especially in aggressive dominance.
Strength may also be measured as a lack of weakness, such as in appeasement, giving in, failure to learn, frequently seeking support, etc.
As noted elsewhere, 'personality' is a human construct and psychologists will argue for hours over what it is and even whether it exists in any stable form, so keep a perspective rather than assuming all this is some absolute truth.
