LESSON 1 REFLECTION It is important to critically analyze questions such as‚ what is pi? ‚ And what is the area of a circle? The obvious assumptions would be the numerical approximation 3.14 and the formula of the area of a circle‚ pi*r^2.

“Is an individual ’s personality determined by their biological nature or by their personal experiences (nurture)?” When personality is analysed within the psychological field‚ the emphasis is placed on the ‘individual’s characteristics‚ modes of thinking and feelings’(Ribeaux&Poppleton‚1978). With these three aspects that make up one’s personality differing in all individuals‚ it proves difficult to provide an all-encompassing definition of personality.
