Drawing up a psychological portrait

A psychological portrait is a person described in psychological terms. In practical psychology, the compilation of a psychological portrait may be required in a number of situations, for example:

Although the psychological portrait is described in psychological terms, this is usually done in understandable terms - so that the consumer understands, so that there is no ambiguity in the descriptions.

A psychological portrait should be compiled by a fairly experienced psychologist, because it requires deep knowledge, the ability to analyze data (for example, the results of psychological testing). If possible, use all the data that you can get. You should not rush to conclusions. If necessary, then conduct an additional study (repeated psychodiagnostics).

The very genre of psychological portrait implies almost complete freedom of presentation. However, this freedom should not be abused. It is advisable to limit yourself to dry, but understandable formulations, to present the material in a system. If some data is of interest to the customer, but they are not, then you can directly say so.

The facts stated in the psychological portrait may be of varying degrees of reliability. First, it is better to describe reliable facts (which the psychologist, at least, does not raise doubts).

It is necessary to distinguish between a psychological portrait and a psychological profile. The latter concept is mainly used to convey meaningful information about the identity of the client to another specialist who is able to understand the formal data. A psychological portrait is not a formalized characteristic, its task is to show the individual originality of a person. If the reader of a psychological portrait does not have such an understanding, if he cannot rely on this new knowledge to predict the behavior of the person being described, such a psychological portrait should be recognized as unsuitable.

What psychological concepts can be relied upon when drawing up a portrait? All these concepts (or parameters) can be divided into four categories (although this division is rather arbitrary):

A person as an individual is something that is quite closely connected with natural features:

- age,

- the constitution

- temperament

- diseases and pathologies,

- emotional orientation, etc.

At the same time, in our psychological portrait, we not only state, say, gender or age, but also describe various kinds of deviations, interesting points related to gender or age: how a person relates to his sexual role, his sexual activity, mental age, etc. d.

So, in general, we act with all parameters: we not only state, but also pay attention to characteristic deviations, individual originality, creatively combining this with each other.

A person as a person is what influences, what is connected with the interpersonal communication of this person, his social role:

- interests

- tendencies

- character (attitude to certain aspects of being),

- sociability

- sincerity

- conflict,

- loyalty,

- participation in certain social groups,

- preferred social roles,

- leadership qualities, etc.

A person as a subject (activity) - these are the qualities that affect the activity (educational, labor, gaming and other):

- intellectual ability

- rationality (reason, rationality),

- Creative skills,

- other abilities

- volitional traits

- traditional ways of making decisions

- motivation and self-motivation,

- Attention,

- features of thinking,

- features of speech,

- representation and imagination,

- communicative competence,

- professional experience,

– professional plans and prospects,

– other general and professional competencies, etc.

A person as an individual - all other qualities that did not fall into other categories:

- self-concept and self-esteem,

- level of self-control,

- personal biography

- characteristic features of behavior,

- characteristic features of the picture of the world,

- prejudices

- beliefs and values

– life strategy and current goals,

- intrapersonal conflicts

- complexes (piling up of ideas),

- personal achievements, etc.

There are sometimes "tests" on the Internet that give a misleading idea of ​​a person's personality ("click on 5 pictures and get the result"). Of course, this is a pseudo-result that will not tell you anything, because drawing up a psychological portrait is work, and work is long, really interesting and fruitful. A psychological portrait will immediately clarify a lot in a person (even if you make it about yourself).

Therefore, if you want to draw up your psychological portrait, then I offer you such a guide from a series of questions below. You can make both your own psychological portrait and the psychological portrait of another person who is of interest to you. All you need for this is an hour or a half time, a few sheets of paper and a pen. If you want your psychological portrait to be subsequently analyzed by a psychologist, then I recommend that you immediately write down the answers to a text file on a computer, then you can send them to me (keep in mind that analyzing a psychological portrait will already cost you money).

I am asking you questions in an impersonal form and in the third person ("what does the person believe?"). If you are writing about yourself, then simply address these questions to yourself, for example: “What do I believe in?” Answer the questions only honestly and thoughtfully.

So let's get started!

Note. If you write your psychological portrait, then, as I hope, you will be objective. When writing a psychological portrait of another person, also try to be objective, because many assessments may turn out to be subjective. For example, under item 18, when you describe a person's personality through synonomic row, situational confusion may arise: you can define a person as indifferent (although he is now indifferent to you personally), and he himself is a very passionate person (or he is passionate about someone or something else), if you in a quarrel, you can subjectively incorrectly attribute to this person anger, emotional dullness, or some negative qualities that are unusual for him. Be not subjective, be as objective and honest as possible in your assessments.

Ilya Vasiliev

A psychological portrait is a complex psychological characteristic of a person, containing a description of his inner make-up and possible actions in certain significant circumstances. In fact, the psychological portrait has similarities with the portraits of skilled artists. The latter tried to convey not so much an external correspondence as an internal one, they tried, with the help of facial expressions and posture, to give the viewer a hint about what kind of person is depicted on the canvas.

Therefore, if you want to make a psychological portrait (of your own or of another person), then you are already in many ways similar to an artist or writer. It is necessary to collect certain information, carefully analyze it and draw appropriate conclusions about the inner world.

Why do you need to make a psychological portrait?

• It plays a significant role in choosing a profession. Especially if you do not know which university to go to or what job to get. As you know, if a person is located for a specific activity and is sufficiently motivated, he will achieve great success.
• It helps to better understand a person and his emotions by analyzing behavior, facial expressions, gestures and speech. It teaches globally.
• Reveal lies. If you have made a psychological portrait of a person's personality, you will be able to notice when he behaves incongruently - that is, when body language contradicts words.
• In the event that you are a businessman, a portrait will help you understand what your typical client is like. This will allow you to make the right strategic and tactical decisions.

Drawing up a psychological portrait is not a task for a couple of minutes. It takes a lot of time, patience and there are pitfalls. However, if you are serious, you can master this technique in a few weeks. You can start with your acquaintances or famous personalities.

How to make a psychological portrait

There are several different ways to make a psychological portrait. One of the most popular and at the same time effective is by analyzing personality traits.

There are ten basic personality traits:

• character;
• temperament;
• motivation;
• capabilities;
• emotionality;
• intellectuality;
• ability to communicate;
• volitional qualities;
• level of self-control;
• self-esteem.

Let's consider each separately.

Temperament. This property of the personality is the most important for drawing up a psychological portrait (and the most noticeable manifestation), because it generally reflects the work of the psyche - inhibited or more mobile. Some people are slow, calm, imperturbable - their emotional states change very rarely. Others are impulsive, quick, prone to violent emotional reactions. As a rule, it is sufficient to observe relatively a large number of time for a person in order to almost accurately determine what type of temperament he has.

The following classification of temperaments is considered canonical:

• Phlegmatic: calm, unhurried, outwardly stingy with the manifestation of emotions, has a stable mood.
• Choleric: impetuous, fast and at the same time unbalanced. His mood changes rapidly and emotional outbursts occur.
• Melancholic: prone to constantly experiencing and chewing on the events of his life and reacts sharply to external factors. He is emotionally vulnerable and highly impressionable.
• Sanguine: hot, lively, agile, with a quick reaction to all events happening around him. If he is motivated, then he is quite productive, but he cannot overpower himself if the work seems uninteresting and boring to him.

Character. This is a set of stable individual personality traits.

There are four groups of character traits:

• Attitude to work: accuracy, diligence, conscientiousness, a penchant for creativity, initiative, laziness, dishonesty, passivity.
• Attitude towards other people: sensitivity and responsiveness, sociability, respect for other people, callousness, isolation, rudeness.
• Attitude to things: thrifty or negligent attitude, neatness or slovenliness.
• Attitude towards oneself: self-criticism, modesty, self-esteem, selfishness, arrogance, vanity.

Motivation. This is a psychophysiological process that controls human behavior, setting its activity, direction, stability and organization.

Each person must have a motive for something - a generalized image of material or ideal objects that are of value to him.

It is also important to know whether the person you are framing is intrinsically or extrinsically motivated.

Capabilities. These are personality traits that are the conditions for the successful implementation of a certain kind of activity. They are not reduced to skills, abilities and knowledge, but rather to the depth, speed and strength of mastering the techniques and methods of activity.

There is also the concept of inclination and giftedness. The first is the motivational component of activity. The second is a qualitative combination of abilities given from birth or developed in childhood.

Emotionality. This is the ability of a person to display the content of experiences, moods, character. It is also a response to the environment.

Emotionality is closely related to temperament. For example, choleric people change emotions at lightning speed, while phlegmatic people are very slow, and melancholic people are prone to.

Intelligence. This is a system of mental processes that ensure the realization of a person's ability to assess the situation, make decisions and, in accordance with this, regulate their behavior.

However, this is a complex setting. Often you may think that a person is unbearably stupid, but later you will be surprised when he shows his intelligence in another area of ​​\u200b\u200blife. This is because there are a lot of its types: spatial, bodily-kinetic, spatial, logical-mathematical, musical, naturalistic, intrapersonal. In a word, if a person is not able to conduct a competent dialogue, this does not necessarily indicate his limitations.

Ability to communicate. With different interactions, a person can manifest himself in different ways, for the reason that his internal attitudes, beliefs, and also his emotional state change, when, for example, during a dialogue, a third person enters the room.

Therefore, the ability to communicate should be considered from different angles, taking into account the internal attitudes of a person.

Volitional qualities. This is the ability of a person to make decisions based on the thought process and direct their thoughts and actions in accordance with the decision.

When compiling a psychological portrait, you must understand whether a person knows how to make difficult decisions, whether he does not deviate from his word, and how successfully he can discipline himself and be patient.

Level of self-control. It is the ability to control your emotions, thoughts and behavior. It is very closely connected with volitional qualities and with the concept.

Simply put, you need to understand whether a person knows how to sacrifice momentary pleasures in order to achieve greater success in life.

Self-esteem. This is a person's idea of ​​the importance of his personality, activities among other people and the evaluation of himself, his own qualities and feelings, merits and demerits.

Self-esteem can be low, high and adequate, which is what you need to find out.

After you have described the person (or yourself) in detail on all counts, proceed to compiling a psychological portrait. This can be done using different questionnaires:

• The level of subjective control of J. Rotter.
• Individual typological questionnaire L.N. Sobchik.
• R. Kettel's questionnaire.
• Leonhard's characterological questionnaire.

However, you can make a psychological portrait based on your own considerations. When enough information is available, some conclusions can be drawn about how this person will react in a given situation. We wish you good luck!

Psychological portrait - today, not a single organization can do without a procedure for assessing the potential and personal qualities. Drawing up a psychological portrait of a child or an adult helps to see what resources he has for self-realization, what qualities need to be cultivated, and which ones are better to get rid of through work on oneself.

Psychological portrait of a person

A deep psychological portrait consists of many parameters and includes a battery of tests following one after another. When interpreting tests or projective methods, it is important to remember that a person cannot be driven into any specific framework and a psychological portrait is only a reflection that a person is free to use in life, but may not show them outside, considering them a weakness of character, and does everything in order to eradicate this quality.

Psychological portrait of the family

The socio-psychological portrait of a family can be analyzed by asking a person to draw his family in the form of animals. When interpreting the portrait of a family, special attention is paid to the nature of the interaction of animals with each other, there are elements of aggression (hooves, teeth, horns), as well as the proximity or remoteness of family members from each other. These moments indicate whether there are problems in the family in the form of violence or indifference. It is auspicious when the depicted animals do something together.

Psychological portrait of twins

Gemini - a psychological portrait of seemingly identical children in everything will be very similar in psychological characters, but this is often not the case. If one of the twins can be talkative and open in front of others, then the other, on the contrary, is closed and stingy in showing emotions. More often, twins complement each other, so do not be surprised if their psychological portraits are different.

Psychological portrait according to the drawing

Is it possible to make a psychological portrait based on a drawing of a person? Yes, general ideas about a person can be gleaned from his drawings, because when drawing, a person splashes his worldview, thoughts, feelings onto paper. Projective techniques are considered highly reliable and are of great importance in interpreting the state of a person at the time of drawing. Psychological personality portrait - what you need to pay attention to when interpreting the picture:

• schematic representation - may indicate high intelligence;
• a realistic image - a man of a pedantic warehouse, attentive to all the little things;
• metaphorical image in the form of an animal, a creature - a creative person;
• aesthetic image - aesthetics are peculiar to a person.

Try profiling someone you don't know: who is this man? Consider appearance, style, and habits to make your definition complete.

How does the subject communicate with other people? A soft tone of voice can mean shyness, but it can also be the result of other factors, such as fatigue. A loud tone of voice may be the result of a need for self-assertion or a willingness to lead others.

• Does his voice change when he needs to defend his opinion, or does he remain level-headed?
• How does he behave in communication with you: mature and balanced, or vice versa, irresponsible? Responsibility of behavior is also an indicator of the level of education and vocabulary.
• It is important to be able to recognize sarcasm, exaggeration, profanity and other speech expressions. It is also important in what context the conversation takes place in order to understand how educated the subject is and whether he is trying to seem smarter than he really is.

Analyze his behavior at home and at work: Is there any difference in how he behaves at home compared to how he behaves in public?

• What area does he live in? Living in a cheap area affects a person differently than living in a wealthy area; people living in low-income areas often think that they cannot achieve anything on their own.
• Organizational ability speaks volumes, but don't jump to conclusions. If he is very busy with work, an untidy house may be the result of simply not having time to tidy up, while someone who has enough free time may just be a classic lazy person. As a rule, the more organized a person is and the more he shows this trait in communicating with others, the more confident he is and able to remain calm in any situation.
• How openly does he share his private life with others? Many of us are not too fond of doing this in public, but you can look at a person's workplace, his "comfort zone" at work. Many office workers (even doctors and psychologists) have family photos on their desks. This suggests that the person loves his family and happily looks at their photos several times a day.

Consider how he dresses, his apartment, house, and car (if any). Many conclusions can be drawn from how a person dresses and looks.

• Are his clothes hung in their places or hanging anywhere? Is he dressed in a neat suit or informally? How professional does he look? Or, conversely, how careless?
• How about a hairstyle? Do you get the impression that a person spent time on a haircut, or, on the contrary, just looked in the mirror and happily moved on? Those who prefer the "look and go" style probably extend this philosophy to all other aspects of life: if it's not a complete nightmare, it's fine - and don't even try to claim anything more.
• Look at his shoes. What do you see in front of you: polished shoes or something of an incomprehensible color that is about to fall apart?

Pay attention to his behavior in society. If he burps, does he try to do it as discreetly as possible or is he not shy? The way a person coughs and sneezes distinguishes those who adhere to strict etiquette from those who do not care.
