Determinants of Personality Explained

This presentation discusses the key determinants of personality, including genetic, physiological, psychological, social, and cultural factors. Genetic determinants include both biological and social heredity that are passed down from previous generations. Physiological determinants refer to the body's physical characteristics. Psychological determinants develop from one's unique thought patterns and behaviors. Social determinants encompass the influences of one's home, family, school, economic status, and teachers during development. Finally, cultural determinants result from internalizing and following the values, ideas, beliefs, and practices of one's surrounding culture and religion.
