Read the article. Select true statements ___________________ Nature or nurture? Your environment and the way in which you were raised by your parents profoundly affect your personality. However, researchers say that you can greatly affect your environment and the way people respond to you. How do you influence your environment? From a young age, your personality and appearance cause people to react to you in a certain way. This, in turn, causes you to alter your own behavior and personality. For example, researchers found that attractive children are treated as though they are socially superior to others. Children who are considered not as attractive are treated in an inferior way. One study found that when teachers’ expectations of children’s behavior differed according to their appearance, the children modified their behavior to meet those expectations. Other research showed that when people believed others had a low opinion of them, people’s self-esteem was lowered. Some researchers believe that once people have low self-esteem, they are so uncomfortable with success that they purposefully fail or interfere with future results so that these are unfavorable to them. However, other researchers think that having a little low self-esteem can motivate some people to work harder and succeed in the future. They are often aware of their weaknesses, so they work hard to improve themselves and their environment – and end up being successful people. _________________________________________
