Environmental Factors Affecting Personality Development Family and friends- first and foremost factor affecting the personality development of an individual is his or her own family and friends parents behavior and attitude their expectation from the child, the family attention and education given to the individual ,the type of experience received from the family, economic and social condition of the family, the type of friend circle in which we socialize are the primary factors which develop the persons personality Institution or your workplace- next factor that effect our personality a lot atmosphere of the workplace we are working in discipline and guideline by our seniors in the institution have great impact on our personality more we observe the good personality working at our workplace or our seniors who have more experience and good personality We will learn god things and take experience from them which help in our personality development.

Culture The cultural traditions,values accepted in a particular society are the cultural environment these factors influence development of an individual personality. Physical and social environment The country we live in where we are born affect a individuals personality development Influence of on Personality – Environment of both the types—geographic And social or natural and man-made has a tremendous bearing on human personality. The natural environment sets limits to the personality and also provides opportunities for Its development. The social environment provides enough conditions for its proper expression. The family, school, neighborhood, friends, various persons in contact, social customs, practices, values, institutions, etc., all affect an individual’s personality. The status of the child, young man, and adult, and old man in the family and in society is not the same. As a result of this difference a man’s temperament, attitudes, tendencies, ways of thinking, acting inclinations, and character, in brief, and his personality is affected. In the same way, the status of the person in places like school, office, occupation, etc., affects his behavior to a great extent. The famous psycho-analyst Sigmund Freud has expressed the opinion that the personality of a person is fashioned in the first few years, the rest of the life being an expression of the tendencies already developed. The present psychologists also agree that the A influence of environment of family upon the character, nature, mental tendencies, habits, behavior of the individual is very great. This view has been verified by comparison of children brought up in families and those bred in government institutions. In childhood, parental love affects the stability of the emotions of the child. It has been observed that excessive love and care spoil the children and lack of affection leaves their feeling undeveloped which are then unnaturally expressed. Alfred Adler, a famous psychologist, maintained that even the birth order of the child in the family affects its personality. This may be understood by remembering that in the family mother, father, husband, wife, elder and younger brother, elder and younger sister, loved child, and unwanted off springs all have their respective statuses which affect their personality. Culture or the social environment provides lot of scope for variation in personality. It has been observed that the Zuni people are said to be emotionally more secure.Further, the Zuni people are known for their co-operative spirit. They are calmed, gracious, non-competitive and maintain control even in the most exciting ceremonial dances. On the other hand, the Kwakiutl Indians (of the Pacific North West) are highly competitive in nature. They give more importance to prestige, rank and property and hence widespread competition is there to possess them. Similarly, the Ba Thonga people are crazy after women and beer. Eskimos are known for their skill and muscular strength. The Dakota people are known for their generosity, hospitality, bravery and fortitude Individual differences arise not only between different societies, even within the society variations in personality may be found. How to account for these differences? The answer lies in differences in (i) constitutional characteristics, (ii) emotional relationships with members of the family and other groups, and (iii) socialization in distinctive safe cultures. Culture varies within a society and not just between societies. It is a point of the first importance to recognize that culture is not a single massive die that cuts all the members of the group of precisely the same specifications. There is in every culture what may be called a division of learning according to social classification. Both sexes and all age groups learn certain things in common but in addition each sex and age group learns different things. Age-grading and sex-typing are perhaps the most important classifications for determining social roles. Occupation, education, income and family background are additional selective factors which are highly important in determining what aspects of the culture an individual will be exposed to. All cultures accordingly produce variety as well as uniformity of personality. It is well to note that the same personality trait can often be produced by varying the environ mental factors. A child who is not dominant naturally may be made more aggressive by increasing the domination at home or ridicule by the gang; that is, by varying interpersonal, or group, factors. Environment alone cannot determine an individual’s personality. But it gives opportunities to the individuals to express themselves and to develop their personality. Environment brings out the hidden potentialities into a definite form. All the inherited qualities become actualities only within and under the conditions of environment. Different aspects of an individual’s personality like interests, intelligence, skill, dexterity, attitudes, beliefs, faith, inspirations, etc., are very much influenced by the environment. CONCLUSION Personality is what combination of attitudes behavior and habits of an individual It develop according to the environment the individual live in and socialize. Personality varies from individual to individual the persons may have identical face or identical fingerprint but he will have a difference in personality its in there hand of the individual how he develop his or her personality whether a individual accept positive vibes in the environment or the negative one so we conclude that environment is primary source of personality development.
