There should be plenty of those. Chose 2 that have enough to write about to take your paper to the required length. Then summarize the similarities in a paragraph or two. Same thing with differences. For example, the biological perspective might say something like our personalities are based on nature while the learning perspective focuses on the nurturing aspect of our personalities (i.e. what we observe and are surrounded by molds our personalities vs. what we are "born to be"). There might be a chart in the book that compares the different perspectives and their focus to help you make your lists of similarities and differences.
