Nature vs. Nurture

Nature vs. Nurture

Refer to Weeks 1 and 2 content as needed (Nature vs Nurture and APA Style Guide).

Write a short paper in Microsoft Word outlining: How much of your topic (select your topic from the list below) appears to be due to factors related to nature (inborn biology) and how much is related to nurture (the environment around you)? You should define your topic (the Open Stax textbook defines most of the topics below) and clearly argue your position (in 1-2 pages, double-spaced). Your paper should be based on the argument you have outlined.

You should NOT use any direct quotes in your assignment- reword the information in your own words and cite accordingly. After you complete this assignment submit it in the Dropbox for grading. NO LATE ASSIGNMENTS ARE ACCEPTED FOR ANY REASON.

Nature vs. Nurture

You will be evaluated on your reasoning skills (i.e., the arguments you put forth are logical and based in fact). You should (at minimum) use the OpenStax textbook as a source to find evidence and cite this in a properly formatted APA reference page; any additional sources should come from the library and NOT from the internet (the library website and Google Scholar are okay to use but avoid blogs and other personal websites). Be sure to also cite your sources using APA 7^th Edition formatting throughout your assignment. If you do not provide references, you will receive a zero on this project. Use of Artificial Intelligence generators will result in a mark of zero, and the submission of an academic misconduct form to your home college.
