GE 1 - 1 - Introduction To UTS

This document discusses the development of self and identity. It explains that the self is molded by both nature and nurture. Nature refers to hereditary biological traits passed down from parents, while nurture encompasses personal experiences and environmental influences like family upbringing and social groups. The self emerges through a complex integration of traits from heredity, environment, personal experiences, and free will. Ultimately, this leads to the development of self-concept, which is an individual's mental picture of who they are.
