 One limitation of the CAPS model is its failure to advance our scientific understanding of personality dynamics beyond how we already understand human action from common sense. As far as I can tell, the labeling and re-labeling of desires, beliefs, and abilities has simply reflected the psychological jargon popular at that point in history…I am surprised and somewhat depressed about the enthusiasm for the CAPS model, but not because the model is wrong. The problem is that settling for this model indicates that we are content to merely re-label common sense concepts with jargon, as opposed to developing a truly scientific model of personality dynamics (Johnson 1999: 449–450).
