Skinner contributed to Behavioral Theory of personality

Skinner draws on the theory of the time, to find that learning and personality development is mostly influenced by the environment and the positive and negative interactions as a source of reinforcement.

For Skinner what happens in this negative or positive interactions is crucial to someone gaining self-confidence or developing misbehavior.

Freud would rather focus on the process lying in the past, to see how personality formed as a patient first came in contact with the mother.

The psychoanalysis view became mainstream for interpreting conflicts in adults who are unable to recognize or remember experiences deeply rooted in their minds and that still  have effects for their mental health

According to Freud the human mind: the id, ego, and superego formed as series of childhood stages in which the pleasure- drive and the destructive drive oppose.       

According to the principles of classical and operant conditioning, the environment then determines behavior, Skinner would argue.

People have developed certain patterns since they have shaped response tendencies over repeated stimulus.

Skinner view on personality can apply to learning settings, like classrooms where young adolescents are encouraged positive and unwanted behaviors .
