Nature/nurture* how do genetic inheritance (our nature) and experience (the nurture we receive) influence our developmental. Stability/change* do our early personality traits persist through life, or do we become different persons as we age. Cross-sectional* different participants of various ages studied at one point in time. Longitudinal* same participants studied at multiple time points. Cross-sequential* combination of both of the above designs. Start cross-sectional with at least two groups and have longitudinal follow-up.
