An individual's personality is the complex of mental characteristics that makes them unique from other
people. It includes all of the patterns of thought and emotions that cause us to do and say things in
particular ways. At a basic level, personality is expressed through our temperament or emotional tone.
However, personality also colours our values, beliefs, and expectations. There are many potential factors
that are involved in shaping a personality. These factors are usually seen as coming from heredity and the
environment. Research by psychologists over the last several decades has increasingly pointed to
hereditary factors being more important, especially for basic personality traits such as emotional tone.
However, the acquisition of values, beliefs, and expectations seem to be due more to socialization and
unique experiences, especially during childhood. Some hereditary factors that contribute to personality
development do so as a result of interactions with the particular social environment in which people live.
For instance, your genetically inherited physical and mental capabilities have an impact on how others see
you and, subsequently, how you see yourself. Likewise, your health and physical appearance are likely to
be very important in your personality development. You may be frail or robust. You may have a learning
disability. These largely hereditary factors are likely to cause you to feel that you are nice - looking, ugly,
or just adequate. Likewise, skin colour, gender, and sexual orientation are likely to have a major impact
on how you perceive yourself. Whether you are accepted by others as being normal or abnormal can lead
you to think and act in a socially acceptable or marginal and even deviant way.
There are many potential environmental influences that help to shape personality. Child rearing
practices are especially critical. In the dominant culture of North America, children are usually raised in
ways that encourage them to become self-reliant and independent. Children are often allowed to act
somewhat like equals to their parents. In contrast, children in China are usually encouraged to think and
act as a member of their family and to suppress their own wishes when they are in conflict with the needs
of the family. Independence and self-reliance are viewed as an indication of family failure and are discouraged.
