The Millon Inventories are unique in their incorporation of a comprehensive explanatory theory of personality. The core evolutionary motivations of this theory reflect universal human drives, but what influences personality's expression?

The presentation will further explore the notion of "goodness of fit" between person and environment, in terms of acculturation, intersectionality, and life strategies.
