What Type Of Personality Would Someone Have If They Refuse To Take Responsibility For Their Actions?

Denial; what they did actually has a responsibility attached. The individual may find it easier to deny or perhaps change the subject to avoid responsibility to their actions. This could be due to immaturity or perhaps because of ignorance.

Fear avoidance. Not being able to take on responsibilities for fear of messing up and not wanting to or can't face being at fault.

Then they are irresponsible and they are very lazy and selfish. Though it may of been only 1 time and they were busy then you cant really blame them is it is a sensible reason for being busy

These type of mentalities are called arrogant people. Simply leaving them, for some time and just wait for the opportunity to teach them what is wrong where they have done wrong.

I would say definitely sociopathic and narcissistic personality.

I'd call this type of people SELFISH, who only think of themselves and want what's only best for them.

Borderline psychotic/sociopathic I would say - if they really can't see what they have done wrong. But if they do know, and are just denying it, then they are selfish, arrogant and irresponsible.
Or possibly a politician.

Childish. We must all take responsibility, by not taking responsibility they are trying to or think they can avoid the consequences...

They would have stubborn, irresponsible attitude that puts people at risk and is very indecisive in nature.

Hi Mindfood,

I believe the behavior you describe is avoidance. I grew up with someone who put everything on everyone else and made it work for her. It's a shame really. And very stressful! Good luck! Jo

I hate to be the spoiler in this one sided view of "other people's problems" but I would say that we see the faults in others that we ourselves can't face. In other words...refusing to take responsibility is normal. If we all assumed the responsibility of all of our actions, and never put the blame outside of ourselves, we would create Heaven on earth. If we all assumed our part in contributing to global warming and acted upon that responsibility, we would solve our portion of that problem. If everyone dealt with their own difficulties by changing themselves and not expecting the change to come from others, we would end all wars.

Careless and rash. They could probably benefit from a program of 12 steps which although created with the addict in mind, is actually a very good map to follow in anyone's life.
