According to research conducted by Zunker (2005, p. 132), personality traits have two different approaches that define them. These include the nomothetic method and the idiographic one.

However, the idiographic approach to personality differs with the nomothetic one because it draws focus on entire personalities of people. For example, it specializes on factors such as richness and complexity that are imperative in understanding the deeper details of an individual. Ferguson (2009, p. 132) also asserted that there ...

The song, ‘Scream’, which Michael Jackson performed, featuring his sister, Janet, plays on the idea of someone being so bored or frustrated that they want to scream. The video carries this idea on by showing the two in a futuristic setting which draws on dystopian traditions to explain the pair’s boredom.

The song and its video reflect Michael Jackson’s persona through its relation to teenage and childish boredom where children are literally so bored that they scream and ...
