picture saying Personality Theories   Picture of Sigmund Freud
Dr. C. George Boeree
Professor Emeritus
Psychology Department
Shippensburg University

This is an electronic textbook ("e-text") created for my students in Personality Theories. In fact, it is the first free e-text in psychology, originally presented in 1997!

Dr, Boeree passed away in 2021, but I (Rodger Rossman) was given permission by his wife to maintain the website.  Although I am unable to modify the original site at Shippensburg University, I copied and maintain it on my own site at techscholia.com.

Although the entire site is copyrighted, you may download it or print it without permission from the author, as long as the material is used only for personal or educational purposes, and the source is indicated.

I hope you enjoy the chapters!
