You are not expected to look at this as might a professional in the field of psychology. However, one of the most important abilities for a diplomat is to have at least basic understanding of peoples characters and what makes them the way they are (sometimes going on quite limited information). This is your chance to put yourself in such a situation and see what you might learn from the research you will do. This assignment should be between 3-5 pages (not including title page and bibliography).
You may use credible online news and analysis sources.
