Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that Raymond Cattell's trait theory distinguishes between different levels of traits that describe personality.
Recognize that surface traits are the observable behaviors and characteristics that we can see in a person.
Identify that Cattell proposed deeper traits that are not directly observable but influence these surface traits.
Know that these deeper, underlying traits are called 'source traits' because they are the root causes of surface traits.
Therefore, the traits that underlie and give rise to observable surface traits in Cattell's theory are named 'source traits'.
