I think it includes all of these.
Development of personality is part of personality theories. Personality theories are to discuss not only traits of a certain personality or the other but also how these traits are acquired by a personality and how a certain type of personality developed. Biological, evolutionary, learning (environmental), Freudian and neu Freudian theories explain this... so are included.

I do not think it includes all.
It will be lengthy and exaggerated.
Development can be discussed but in short .

These all are theories of personality.
But fortunately :pp
the one they ask in exam is always that of Freud. So one can confidently go for only psychoanalytic theory.:)

Name all the theories and write on one in detail and you should write freud wali :pp
