Mapping Resilience and Adaptability: An Integrative Analysis of the Personality and Role Identity Structural Model (PRISM) within the Framework of Behavioral Genetics
Abstract: This research article explores the intricate relationship between genetic predispositions and environmental influences on human psychological development, utilizing the Personality and Role Identity Structural Model (PRISM). Drawing from a study of 100 participants across diverse developmental stages, this paper examines how core personality traits-assessed via the Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire (MPQ) - manifest across different social roles and life contexts. The study employs Advanced Statistical and Structural Modeling (ASSM) to evaluate the structural organization of these traits. Results indicate that personality development is a dynamic interplay, with genetic factors accounting for approximately 60-65% of individual variability, while environmental influences contribute 35-40% by modulating adaptability and resilience. The findings emphasize that while general traits provide a stable foundation, role-specific identities facilitate situational flexibility, particularly in vulnerable populations such as orphan adolescents.
