What do you want to know and from who: identify how personality measures are evaluated, benefits and potential limitations, identify research designs in personality psychology, how do we actually work with the research. Unstructured: responses are not set, open-ended fill in the blank or textbox questions. Limitations of self-report data: honesty in reponses: participants may not always be honest esp for topics about unconventional experiences, unusual desires, unconventional sex practises.
