  half of personality traits may be genetic.
  half of personality traits may be environmental.
  most of the environmental effects may be from the nonshared environment.
  temperament defines personality.

Question 2

Many parents believe that they mold their children's personalities. This belief is challenged by which of the following research findings?
 
  Scientific data suggest that genes play a far bigger role than was previously
  believed.
  The influences on personality seem to be 50 percent familial and 50 percent
  nonfamilial.

  Epigenetic research reveals that familial environment plays a very small role in
