According to Allport, which of the following is considered a mature personality trait?

  1. Self-confidence

  2. Aggression

  3. Self-examination

  4. Shyness

The correct answer is: Self-examination

According to Allport, maturity refers to a fully developed and well-integrated personality. Therefore, self-examination, option C, is considered a mature personality trait as it shows introspection and a willingness to understand oneself fully. Self-confidence, option A, may also be a desirable trait, but it does not necessarily indicate maturity. Aggression, option B, is generally seen as an immature trait as it displays a lack of control and consideration for others. Shyness, option D, is also not considered a mature trait as it can hinder one's ability to fully engage and interact with others.
