What is the influence of genetics and environmental factors to individual Behavior and factor in the environment that influences behavior?
In some situations, genes play a larger role in determining your behavior; in other situations, environment plays a larger role in influencing your behavior. If you had a whole different set of experiences over your lifetime your genes may be expressed in different ways, and you may behave differently than you do now. The amount, distribution, and form of interior spaces can have profound effects on the psychological health of people. Some of the main psychological issues at play in regards to spatial allocations include territoriality, personal space, privacy, and crowding.
The environment can influence peoples' behavior and motivation to act. As, a dingy corridor filled with extra hospital equipment will invite staff to leave another item in the hall, whereas a clean corridor and adequate storage will encourage staff to take the time to put the item away. Genes influence each individual's behavioral and psychological characteristics, including intellectual ability, personality, and risk for mental illness all of which have bearing on both parents and children within a family. In some situations, genes play a larger role in determining your behavior; in other situations, environment plays a larger role in influencing your behavior. If you had a whole different set of experiences over your lifetime your genes may be expressed in different ways, and you may behave differently than you do now. The environment can facilitate or discourage interactions among people. As, an inviting space with comfortable chairs and privacy can encourage a family to stay and visit with a patient. The environment can influence peoples' behavior and motivation to act. Environmental factors often influence traits independently of genes. But not always. Sometimes the environment changes a gene either its DNA sequence or its activity level. Either of these effects can change the proteins that are made from a gene, which in turn affects traits. Genes influence each individual's behavioral and psychological characteristics, including intellectual ability, personality, and risk for mental illness all of which have bearing on both parents and children within a family. Clearly, genetic influences have an enormous influence on how a child develops. However, it is important to remember that genetics is just one piece of the intricate puzzle that makes up a child's life. Environmental variables including parenting, culture, education, and social relationships also play a vital role.
