Best Answer

This question has been at the heart of most psychological controversies and is nearly impossible to answer. Neither nature nor nurture can account for the majority of all instances, so it would have to be narrowed down to a specific case--even then, it may be extremely difficult to determine which idea holds more importance.

For example, are mentally disabled people this way due to nature or nurture? Well, there are people who have become mentally disabled due to both instances, so it requires study of the individual case in order to be sure.

What are the different temperaments in nature v. nurture?

temperaments are a person's characteristic emotional reactivity and intensity. Temperament has been proven to be effected by nature and nurture. Nature is what will be the biggest influence on temperament, and your nature temperament will stay with you the rest of your life (your temperament does not change). The nurture of family has more of an effect on bigger more important issues like politics and religion, while peer nurture has a larger effect on the day to day opinions on things such as what movie to watch, what clothes to wear etc. I hope I have answered your question, if not, try re-wording it.
