and interact with psychological factors to shape our personality, intelligence, emo-
tions, and motivation and also how we
behave, adapt, and adjust to our
environments.
Genetics provide a limited range of personality traits which the environment can support or impede
-Heritability: A statistical measure that estimates how much of some cognitive, personality, or
behavioral trait is influenced by
genetic factors.
Ones IQ is 50% based of off of genetics.
All mental disorders is 40-70% genetics.
Ones personality is about 40-50% genetics.
-Personality = (40% Genes + 27% Non-Shared Environment + 26% Error + 7% Shared Environment)
The error exists as we can not pinpoint the exact source of these personality traits as of today.
Being raised in the same family has little effect as to how a person's personality is shaped.
Most personality traits are not from genes but from the environment.]]> 2017-11-01 13:31:59 UTC https://padlet.com/18kobsaa/e4w97rpq0xqv/wish/202485694 18lancastero https://padlet.com/18kobsaa/e4w97rpq0xqv/wish/202486920 Do Personality Traits and Values Form a Coherent Whole?

A number of personality traits have already been identified as having a genetic basis. 

In the article, it mentions that trait theories have focused on describing stable characteristics of someone personality such as how they typically think, feel and behave. Recent theories have attempted to understand how these traits and values fit into a broader model of personality, and hence have looked at how particular traits, like those in the Big Five (Openness, Conscientiousness, Extroversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism), are related to particular values.

By studying this, doctors and scientists can better understand how our minds and bodies work, and what's happening when it doesn't work properly. Genetics explain a lot of things, like what makes us unique,  why we look like other family members, what diseases run in the family, etc. Taking time to study this can help us better understand ourselves and our backgrounds. Also, genetics can help to explain where certain personalities came from and how to predict how others will act.

Take the data for how many per student were similar to their parents and compare to research. ]]> 2017-11-02 14:16:24 UTC https://padlet.com/18kobsaa/e4w97rpq0xqv/wish/202914627
