🔍 The nature versus nurture debate analyzes the influences on personality development.
🧬 Evolutionary psychology suggests that our personality is shaped by traits favored by our environment.
🌱 Genes and environmental factors both play a role in the development of personality.
🧬 Our physical biology, including personality, can be influenced by the environment.
👥 Identical twins studies help determine the contribution of genetics and environment to traits.
🧬🌿 Heritability measures the extent to which traits are influenced by genes or environment.
🧬 Some personality traits are influenced by genetics, such as social closeness, achievement orientation, traditionalism, and imagination.
🧪 A specific gene, dopamine 4 receptor gene, can influence the trait of thrill-seeking and enjoying novelty.
👯♂️ Real-life examples, like the gym twins, demonstrate that traits can be passed down through genes.
🔑 Our genes may be closely correlated with our personality traits and decisions we make.
🧠 Brain chemistry plays a significant role in our reactions and assessment of the environment.
🤔 The size of certain brain sections, like the amygdala, may influence specific personality traits.
🧠 Our brains have the potential to change and cause our personality to change.
⚠️ The case of Phineas Gage demonstrates how a brain injury can severely affect personality.
🔬 The biological model of personality is supported by evidence from brain chemistry and brain injuries.
🧠 Our brain chemistry can be changed through external factors like drugs and smartphones, impacting our personality.
🔁 Neuroplasticity allows us to rewire our brain, enabling us to change our brain chemistry and ultimately our personality.
🧬👥 The nature versus nurture debate suggests that both biological factors and environmental influences shape our personality.
🧠 Our personality can be influenced by both nature and nurture.
🌍 The environment and culture we grow up in can shape our personality traits.
