THE IDEA THAT HEREDITARY POTENTIALS CAN BE MOULDED INTO ANY DESIRED PERSONALLITY PATTERN WAS SUPPORTED IN THE EARLY PART OF THIS CENTURY BY THE TEACHING OF JOHAN B, WASTON WASTON CLAIMED THAT A TIRY, MAILEABLE CREATURE.LIKE A NEWBORN INFANT,COULD BE MOULDED INTO ANYTHING THE SIGNIFICANT PEOPLE IN THIS ENVIRONMENT DESIRED.
ORDER ; SCIENTISTS CLAIMED WITH EQUAL STRENGTH OF ARGUMENT THAT THE NEWBORN INFANT WAS "GENE-CONTROLLED" AND COULD SCARELY BE CHANGED AT ALL.
TODAY THERE IS LITTLE EVIDANCE THAT EITHER POINT OF VIEW IS CORRECT.ON THE OTHER HAND, THERE IS AMPLE EVIDANCE THAT THE FORM THE PARSONALITY PATTERN WILL TAKE DEPEND NOT SOLELY ON THE TRAINING METHOD USED OR THE KIND OF ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH THE PERSON GROWN UP BUT ALSO ON THE HEREDITARY POTENTIALS THE PERSON BRING INTO THE WORLD WITH HIM, THE INDIVIDUAL POTENTIAL AT THE TIME OF BIRTH AFFECT OTHER PEOPLE AND THE POTENTIAL THEMSELVE ARE AFFECTED IN THE RELATIONSHIP THE INDIVIDUAL HAS WITH SIGNIFICIANT PEOPLE DURING THE EARLY YEARS OF HIS LIFE.
PERSONALITY IS FORMED FROM THE INTERACTION OF SIGNIFICANT FIGURE (FIRST THE MOTHER LATER, THE FUTHER AND SIBLINGS, LATER EXTRA FAMILIAL FIGURE) WITH THE CHILD. THE CHILD BRINGS TO THIS INTERACTION A CERTAIN BIOLOGICAL CONSTITUTION CERTAIN NEEDS AND DRIVE AND CERTAIN INTELLECTUAL CAPACITIES WHICH DETERMINED, HIS REACTION TO THE WAY HE IS ACTED UPON BY THESE SIGNIFICANT FIGURE;
THE PARENTS ATTITUDES TOWARD THE CHID AS A PERSON AND TOWARD THE ROLE OF PARENTHOOD ALSO AFFECT THEIR RELATIONSHIP. PARENTAL ATTITUDES WILL BE MORE FAVOURABLE AND PARENT - CHILD RELATIONSHIP BETTER THAN IF THE CHILD IS IN SOME WAY DISAOPROVING TO THE PARENTS.WHICH PLAY A MORE IMPORTANT ROLE IN PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT HEREDITY OR ENVIRONMENT? THE QUESTION CANNOT BE ANSWERED IN ONE WORD,IN SOME ASPECT OF THE PERSONALITY PATEERN, HEREDITY IS MORE IMPORTANT IN OTHER ASPECT ENVIRONMENT IS MORE IMPORTANT, THE RELATIVE IMPORTANCE OF THE TWO INFLURENCE ON PERSONALITY CANNOT BE DETERMINED ONCE AND FOR ALL BECAUSE THEY MAY RAINFORENCE ONE ANOTHER IN THEIR EFFECT OR THEY MAY CONFLICT,THE INFLUENCE OF THE ENVIRONMENT DEPEND NOT ON THE ENVIRONMENT ALONG ON THE PERSONS HEREDITARY ENDOWMENT AS ALLPORT PUT IT, "THE SAME FIRST FIRE THAT MELTS THE BUTTER HARDENTS THE EGG," HEREDITARY PREDISPOSITIONS MAY INFLURENCE ENVIRONMENT FACTOR FAVORABLE OR UNFAVORABLY, THUS AFFECTING THE QUALITY OF PERSONALITY MOLDING,"SOMETIMES THEY { THE RAW MATERIAL OF PERSONALITY - PHYSIQUE INTELLIGENCE OF THE ENVIRONMENT SOMETIME THEY, PLACE LIMITATION UPON IT, BUT ALWAYS THEIR FORCE IS FELT,"
THE BELIEF THAT THE PERSONALITY PATTERN IS MOLDED EARLY IN LIFE IS NOT NEW,"IN THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY,ST IGNATIUS CLAIMED THAT IF HE COULD HAVE THE TEACHING OF A CHILD UNTIL HE HAS 6 YEARSOLD NOTHING COULD UNDO THE TEACHING FREUD IN THE EARLY PART OF THE PRESENT CENTURY, EMPHASIZED THE IMPORTANCE OF THE EARLY PART OF THE PRESENT CENTURY EMPHASIZED THE IMPORTANCE OF THE EARLY YEARS OF LIFE IN DETERMINING THE FORM THE PERSONITY PATTERN WOULD TAKE, HIS THEORY WAS BASED ON EVIDENCE THAT MANY OF HIS PATIENTS WHO SUFFERED FROM PERSONALITY DISTURBANCES HAD UNHAPPY CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES, THESE UNHAPPY EXPERIENCE FREUD POSTULATED CAME FROM THE SAME CONCLUSION BASED ON GENETIC STUDIES OF CHILDREN FROM EARLY BABYHOOD,GESELL ET AL. FROM STUDIES OF ADOLESCENT CONCLUDED THAT "THE FOUNDATION AND MOST OF THE FRAMEWORK OF THE HUMAN ACTION SYSTEM ARE LAID DOWN IN THE FIRST DECADE,"
BARTEMEIR HAS POINTED OUT THAT UNFAVOURABLE EARLY EXPERIENCE HAVE A PROFOUND EFFECT ON PERSONALITY BECAUSE THE PERSONALITY PATTERN IS LESS FULLY ORGANISED THEN IT WILL BE LATER.
MOLDING OF THE PERSONALITY PATTERN BEGINS EARLY IN POSTNATAL LIFE BECAUSE THE CAPACITY TO LEARN DEVELOPS EARLY AND IS READY TO FUNCTION BEFORE THE BABY REACHES HIS FIRST BIRTHDAY, WHAT HAPPENS IN THE EARLY OF LIFE WHAT KINDS OF PEOPLE THE INDIVIDUAL IS ASSOCIATED WITH, WHAT THEY EXPECT OF HIM AND HOW THEY TRY TO ENFORCE THEIR EXPECTATION - ALL INFLUENCE HIS DEVELOPING PERSONALITY AND DETERMINE WHAT SORT OF PERSON HE WILL GROW UP TO BE,
