Topic > Personality: Genetically Inherited or Developed

The main differentiation between humans lies in an individual's personality. A person's personality lies in the individual's overall profile or the unique blend of psychological qualities of character that relate to that individual's distinctive nature. The individual's distinctive blend of psychological aspects guides how that specific human being reacts and interacts with others or the surrounding environment. A person's character contains a set of mental peculiarities that mimic the way a person feels, thinks, and acts. Several specialists have asked themselves what the main aspect that constitutes personality is: is personality inherited genetically or does it develop progressively through experience? I'm sure many of us have often heard comments like: "He behaves like this because he was raised like that!" or “He acts exactly like his father!” It is then that the debate appears: what is more imperative when formulating one's personality: human nature or education? Does an individual's personality depend on the environment in which someone leads their life or on heredity through genetic inheritance? Personality: genetically inherited or developed As indicated by psychologists, the most rational answer to what is most imperative when developing one's personality is neither one nor the other, nor the other, but the combination of the two factors: the experience/educational/environmental factor and the genetic factor. Consequently, heredity establishes the limits of personality traits that can be developed, while the environment, represented by situational, cultural and social factors, induces actual development within the limits. Cultural factors are linked to the heart of the card......and expected reactions to events, were your behavioral and affective characteristics “fixed” during childhood and have you changed since then? I believe that the above theories have their factual side as well as the false one, in any case, in an insecure world like the one we find ourselves in, the method by which we behave and think in specific situations is probably the most insecure of all.
