One of the biggest questions in psychology asks: are we the way we are
because we were born that way, or because we were raised that way? Is it
nature or nurture? In the field of giftedness research, there is also the question
of whether intelligence is determined by our genes or by our environment. And
if both our genes together with the environment affect intelligence, which of the
two is the dominant factor? Workshop participants can look forward to gaining a better
understanding of what it means for a trait to be inborn or acquired. Participants will learn more
about the influence of nature vs. nurture on the development of intelligence – is there an
intelligence gene, for example. Or what are effective environmental factors of intelligence? How
can we apply this information to everyday life and what are the practical implications of doing
so?
