During dehydration synthesis, two subunits, or monomers, bind to each other where they were once bound to their respective hydrogen (âH) or hydroxyl (âOH) groups. That's right. If it's a group, it gets a dash before it. This blissful union is presided over by an enzyme that is mainly there to help speed things along. The name of the process is dehydration synthesis because monomers are literally coming together and synthesizing a polymer by dehydrating, or removing a water molecule.
Implicit personality theory describes the specific patterns and biases an individual uses when forming impressions based on a limited amount of initial information about an unfamiliar person.
MODULE 4 Other Theories of Personality. Freud's psychoanalytic theory was the earliest well-defined theory of personality. Within a short time he had many followers. Some of these disagreed with Freud's theoretical emphases and developed modifications of psychoanalytic theory. Jung and Adler, who both disagreed with Freud's sexual emphasis, developed very influential theories of personality. In recent years, a socially oriented psychologist, Erich Fromm, has developed a new theory of personality, as have some learning theorists.
