Please note that my request was for ONLINE case studies.  I have taught
personality theories for 25 or so years, and I have had students analyze characters
from books and movies - often with great success.  However, this semester I am
teaching an online section of the course, and I am trying to come up with some
"homework" assignments that utilize online resources - hence, the request for online
personality case studies.
    Of course, I am always open for other ideas for the course - but I have a
_pressing_ need to get an answer to my original question! :-)

Thanks!
