Multiplicity is the use of multiple personality styles by a person.{{citation needed|date=August 2012}} For example, a woman may adopt a kind, nurturing personality when dealing with her children but change to a more aggressive, forceful personality when going to work as a high-flying executive as her responsibilities change.[1]{{page needed|date=March 2015}}

Rita Carter says evidence for multiplicity abounds and is found in history, and that when an individual states that they have been taken over by a spirit, soul, or ghost, they are saying that they are experiencing another personality. She says that feeling happy and carefree while in the company of your friends, but less so at home with family, is an example of multiple personality styles.[1]{{page needed|date=March 2015}}

Jung proposed: "The many contains the unity of the one without losing the possibilities of the many."[2]

History

Plato described the soul ("psyche") as having three parts, calling them Logos (rationality), Eros (erotic love), and Thymus (desire).[1]{{page needed|date=March 2015}} According to Carter, Shakespeare showed examples of this in his works of literature; characters like Hamlet and Macbeth had distinct personalities that differed throughout their respective works.[1]{{page needed|date=March 2015}} Carter says that Freud supported the notion of different personalities when he came up with the Id, Ego, and Superego, arguing that there is a split in the conscious and unconscious mind.[1]{{page needed|date=March 2015}}

Carter says that Italian psychologist Roberto Assagioli developed an approach to psychology called psychosynthesis, and thought many personalities that an individual is not consciously aware of may be present.[1]{{page needed|date=March 2015}} American psychologist John G. Watkins used hypnosis to bring out different personalities, as a method to study those personalities.[1]{{page needed|date=March 2015}}
