Question

Dr. Vreeland believes that heredity is primarily responsible for personality traits. Dr. Abshire believes that environmental influences are primarily responsible for personality traits. One might say they are on different sides of the _____ debate

Answer 1

I believe the answer is: heredity versus environment

heredity versus environment refers to debate regarding what cause human to behave a certain way. Those who support 'heredity' believes that human behaviour is influenced by genetical personality traits which already exist ever since they are born. Those who support 'environment' believes that the social relations and the environment where people grow up plays a bigger role in shaping our personality traits.
