Discuss how nature and nurture interact to shape at least TWO of your own behaviours or abilities (or an example from someone in the media).

ASSIGNMENT

PART 1

One of the core themes of this course is the importance of both nature (biological bases and genetic inheritance) and nurture (environment, learning, experiences) for many psychological processes.

Discuss how nature and nurture interact to shape at least TWO of your own behaviours or abilities (or an example from someone in the media) based on the information you learned about from the Cognitive Pillar (Module 1 Intelligence), the Development Pillar (Module 2 Human Development), and the Social and Personality Pillar (Module 3 Motivation and Emotion).

You must provide one example of your behaviours or abilities from two of the three pillars (i.e., 2 examples in total, each from a different pillar) and you must provide specific evidence from the modules to support your answer (including the lectures, text readings, and prep guides…. and cite your sources). Your post should be approximately 800 words double spaced.

This part will come after you provide me with the first part

PART 2

After reading through other posts carry on the discussion by replying to at least TWO other post. Posts to peers should be a minimum of 150 words.
