Although the social cognitive view of personality has many advocates, why do some opt to study this topic in other ways?

▸ Because these topics are not adequately open to scientific inquiry and thus are not appropriate for consideration in a scientific field

▸ Because identifying some of these cognitive processes, such as self-efficacy or locus of control, is not enough to develop a comprehensive theory of personality

▸ Because its emphasis on topics like the unconscious and childhood sexuality are distasteful to many people

▸ Because its use of techniques like unconditional positive regard and the life story identity method produce results that are unverifiable and resistant to replication
