(Please note that the trait model is more than just the big five—this part of the paper should cover the general history and evolution of the model.)
* Compare and contrast the basic assumptions of the trait model and the psychodynamic model regarding the theorist’s explanations of personality development.
* Use the scholarly sources you researched for this assignment as well as this week’s required sources to support your statements.

* Describe each of the five traits included in the big five model:
* extroversion,
* agreeableness,
* conscientiousness,
* neuroticism, and
* openness to experience.
* (This section demonstrates your understanding of the theory, so do not just copy and paste the explanations provided on the Truity website.)
* Reflect on your results from the test, on each of the five traits.
