Psychologists and researchers have been trying to answer this question and continue to develop patterns in how our life experiences and environment help to make us who we are. The way we learn, remember, our attitudes, personality and what motivates us are some of the variables that contribute to molding us. To develop a better understanding of how these things affect us, I will compare my husband, Jim, to myself. Jim and I are close in age and race, but come from different

These characteristics can consist of biological factors, developmental factors, cognitive factors, social factors and cultural factors. I have had many situations in my life where I question what type of characteristics I have, or my friends, and where they come from.

Different people think, live, view, and judge in distinct ways. That’s what makes life so interesting. The great diversity of the world sometimes has an effect on certain people. Humanity itself has ways of expressing its differences, for example there’s; art, music, fashion, and hobbies, etc. All these are factors that can help identify ones personality, lifestyle, and views on certain topics, etc. This helps define us in a way, it’s a form of expression, whether personal or not.

To understand personality there are three main aspects that must be looked at: LArsen and Buss Definition of personality, The Six Domains of knowledge of personality, and Costa and McCrae's Five Factor Theory.
