character, Nicolette, and made notes of the important descriptions of her which showed her personality.
Secondly, I determined what kind of approach that would be used to help in analyzing this thesis. In this writing, then, I use psychological approach since
my study was focused in the personality changes of the character. The theory of the approach that was used to give the limitation in this study was taken from the
theory of approach written by Rohrberger and Woods 6-15. Thirdly, I did the analysis. The analysis was divided into two parts. The
first part was in relation to how Nicolette’s and Montgomery’s personalities were portrayed. At this point, theories of character and characterization from Abrams,
Murphy, and Perrine were employed to identify the personalities of Nicolette and Montgomery. In this second part, I employed the theories from Hurlock and
Pikunas that would be helpful in analyzing the personality development of Nicolette. Therefore, the theories of paraphilia from Baron and other sources
would be helpful in analyzing the influence on Nicolette’s personality development. Eventually, it assisted me to dig up more valuable aspects of the
central character that could be applied in our lives.
