Personality can be defined as about studying characteristic patterns of behaviors and mental processes (thoughts, feelings and motivations) that are relatively stable across time and can be used to differentiate among individuals (Baumert et al., 2017). One of the issues connected to the study of personality is how these behaviors happen. Do people intentionally behave in a certain way? Are they aware of how they behave? Do they know why? Are they aware of the antecedents and consequences of their behavior? Do they hold beliefs about who they are (i.e., their self-concept)? How much do they know who they are? How willing are they to reveal who they think they are to other people?

Abstract
Personality can be defined as about studying characteristic patterns of behaviors and mental processes (thoughts, feelings and motivations) that are relatively stable across time and can be used to differentiate among individuals (Baumert et al., 2017). One of the issues connected to the study of personality is how these behaviors happen. Do people intentionally behave in a certain way? Are they aware of how they behave? Do they know why? Are they aware of the antecedents and consequences of their behavior? Do they hold beliefs about who they are (i.e., their self-concept)? How much do they know who they are? How willing are they to reveal who they think they are to other people?
