universal risk-taking personalities
The reading and the lecture are both about “universal risk-taking personalities”. According to the reading people with this type of personality injure themselves with no reason and their behaviors must be considered illogical and in extreme forms pathological. However, the lecture challenges all the claims that the reading considers saying that the article was written many years ago and the perspective is no longer valid in the psychological field.
First, the reading establishes that risk-taking personalities are indicative of suicidal personalities. Nevertheless, the professor shows that risk takers' personalities have no relationship with suicidal tendencies. Moreover, he says that nowadays risk-taking personalities are considered positive skills attitudes.
Second of all, the paper states that risk-taking personalities endanger their lives with no reason except for their selfish satisfaction. However, the professor explains that there are physical and chemical rewards involved in the risk-taking actions that trigger adrenaline through the body generating more self confidence.
Finally, the passage states that this type of personality tries to cover up the need for attention. Nonetheless, the lecture clarifies this argument saying that according to new research risk-taking personalities have shown high levels of social and financial success.
