human psychological development (behavior, habits,
intelligence, personality, sexuality, aggressive
tendencies, and so on).

Nature

In the "nature vs nurture" debate, nature refers to an

individual's innate qualities (nativism).

Nurture

personal experiences (i.e. empiricism or behaviorism).

were brought up. Someone could be born with genes
to give them a normal height, but be malnourished in
childhood, resulting in stunted growth and a failure to
develop as expected.

Our Conclusion

After our Studies...

I. We have found Criminals can be Born that way.

II. Nature and Nurture tend to have equal participation in Personalitys.
III. Parenting skills will almost always play a role in a Childs Behavior
IV. Humans are hardwired to believe in something they can't perceive,
weather that be God, or some other concept they have no direct
experience with. People are more likely to believe something if their
parents, friends and peers do as well, and if they've heard about it from a
young age.
V. In many Cases it is always equal.
