Make a list of your read our own personality traits and then address the following questions:
How much, if at all, has your personality changed from the time you were in elementary school?
What specific people and/or events most shaped your personality over the last fifteen years of your life?
In terms of personality, which parent are you most like—your mother or your father—and in what ways?
After you consider these questions, discuss how, if at all, your answers may help to shed light on the “nature” versus “nurture” debate.
