Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Erich Fromm was a neo-Freudian psychoanalyst who suggested a theory of personality based on two primary needs : the need for freedom and the need for belonging. He suggested that people develop certain personality styles or strategies in order to deal with the anxiety created by feelings of isolation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sigmund Freud laid the foundation for psychodynamic personality theories with his proposal of the id, the ego, and the superego. Freud saw these three parts of the mind as the basis of human personality.

Detailed explanation-3: -Erik Erikson: Emphasized the social elements of personality development, the identity crisis, and how personality is shaped over the course of the entire lifespan.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fromm’s social character is “the core of the character common to most members of a culture, in contradistinction to the individual character, in which people belonging to the same culture differ from each other” (Fromm 1962, 62).

Detailed explanation-5: -Psychologist Erik Erikson (1902–1994) created a theory of personality development based, in part, on the work of Freud.
