depending on which theoretical approach is used (for this portion, compare/contrast the
theorists that you’ve been discussing, and their approach to the character) 2 A discussion of the extent to which each chosen theorist or theory would address
relevant social, cultural, environmental, biological, or unconscious factors that may be
