The Chinese equivalent term for âpersonalityâ (renge) is a contemporary term that combines two Chinese characters meaning âpersonâ (ren) and âqualityâ (ge). This term, although parallel to âpersonality,â adds some additional meaning implying traditional Chinese social norms and standards. For example, in Chinese historical literature, the person is viewed not as an independent being but as a part of the world, nature, a social network, and so on. Therefore, it is to be expected that an individualâs personality is judged based on the role he/she plays in this broad context.
