    Nature Versus Nurture: Which Determines Personality?

    Since the beginning of time the same question has been pondered over and over. Why are we the way we are? Is personality determined by heredity (or nature) or by the environment in which a person was raised (or nurtured)? The answer is both. Psychologists have struggled for years attempting to prove one side or the other; however, simply put, both matter. A person’s genetic framework is important and a person’s day-to-day culture is important.
