Hello, Mr. Tian Tian. You know, it's like seeing a face when you see a character's name.
Your question reminds me of the final exam question I got in my sophomore year of studying personality psychology, which was also about fruit personalities. I remember we were asked to choose between an apple and a banana.
The "fruit personality type" is based on people's daily preferences for a certain fruit and determines their character traits. From a psychological perspective, personality refers to an individual's internal tendencies and psychological characteristics in terms of social adaptation to people, things, and oneself.
The fruit personality type does not belong to the scientific category of personality.
The specific meaning of the "banana personality" in the movie will vary depending on the plot, context, and the director's intentions. However, the characteristics embodied by the "banana personality" will generally include:
A banana personality is a person who is inconsistent between their appearance and their inner self. Just as a banana is yellow on the outside but white on the inside, a banana personality may indicate that a person's appearance does not match their true inner self. They may present an outward appearance, but have a different nature deep down.
In the movie, as soon as Le Ying says the word "banana," Mary says that Le Ying has a banana personality. Bananas need to be peeled, and they undoubtedly show defensive psychology and disguise their true feelings.
A banana personality indicates a strong ability to adapt and respond flexibly to various situations and interpersonal relationships. This is because bananas are highly adaptable fruits that can grow in different environments.
However, these are just some possible explanations, and the specific meaning must be understood based on the specific plot and the actions of the characters in the movie.
Teacher Tiantian is recommended the book "Personality Psychology" by Xu Yan, a professor and doctoral supervisor at the Department of Psychology of Beijing Normal University. This book takes real-life people as its subjects and provides a definitive reference for eliminating personality deviations and shaping a sound personality. It describes and reveals the unique patterns of individuals' cognition, emotions, motives and behaviors, and analyzes the various factors behind these uniquenesses, such as genetics, environment and individual subjective initiative, as well as their mechanisms of action.
I want to thank Teacher Tiantian for his question, and I know my answer will be helpful.
This is the unity of knowledge and action. I wish us a lifetime of happiness.

I was wondering the same thing about the movie "Hot and Sticky"! Jialing does appear in an interview segment on a show called Sister program. It's quite intriguing how they bring up various psychological concepts.
The movie touched on so many interesting points, including that part where the psychologist discusses the "Banana Personality". From what I understand, it's not a widely recognized term in psychology. It seems more like a concept created for the narrative.
Speaking of the "Banana Personality", it felt more like a metaphorical expression rather than an actual psychological classification. The movie used it to highlight certain behaviors or traits in characters.
Regarding the existence of such a personality type, it's hard to say. The movie might have taken creative liberties with psychological ideas to fit the story. In real psychology, there isn't any official mention of a "Banana Personality".
It's fascinating how films can introduce us to new terms like "Banana Personality". Whether it exists or not, the concept adds an extra layer of depth to the character development in the film.
