Document Summary
Lecture 10 (week 6): continuity and heritability: continuity speaks to personality development. To what extent does personality elaborate and develop over life span. To what extent do the attributes we show early in life stay the same as we grow older: all aspects of personality develop over our life: not only trait but also goals, life narratives etc. our discussion however will only pertain to traits: heritability due to genetics vs. differences in the environment that a person has. : to what extent are the individual differences we see in people: both continuity and heritability are separate topics: a trait can be heritable but not continuous and vice versa: people are like arrows, they aren"t only distinguishable by anatomical features (how they look) For arrows you need to launch the m from the bow and see their flight to note the differences between them.
