Compare and contrast the influence of heredity and hormones on human behavior?

Answer 1

Heredity initially sets you down life's path with the evolutionary tools needed to survive and even prosper.

But, in addition, the culture in which you live plays an equal role in molding your personality, your dreams and your need to function successfully near the norm that the culture dictates.

Answer 2

Nature as against nurture debate. Nature capacity our personalities are fastened from the 2nd we are born (hereditary) - lookup Freud's psychodynamic thought, Erikson's point thought or Bowlby's attachment thought. Nurture capacity that our behaviour is learnt - lookup Bandura's social gaining awareness of thought. the character/nurture debate centres in this question – ‘is our capacity to learn desperate by employing our inherited genes and characteristics? (i.e. NATURE) – or – is our capacity to learn desperate by employing our upbringing? (i.e. NURTURE)
