Choice theory rests on the assumption that everything we do, think, and feel is generated by what happens inside us. What are the implications of this perspective for the either the development of an individual’s personality or the ways in which people learn to deal with stress? For example, if a person experiences a loss or break-up, and the resulting emotion is sadness or grief, to what extent are they responsible for their reaction? Make sure to articulate an argument referencing information from the text. Papers should be 3 pages, double-spaced, 12-point font, Times New Roman. APA style only. Please use the rubric posted in canvas as a guide.
*Please be aware that this is a peer reviewed project, and students from the class will be reviewing your work and providing you with feedback. Rubric
