Compare the person-situation debate with the nature-nurture debate
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Both the person-situation and the nature-nurture debates relate to the discussion of how personality develops. The person-situation debate is whether stable personality traits predict behavior or if personality does not really exist and the situation is much more important in predicting actions. The nature-nurture debate is about whether genetics or a person's environment cause specific personality traits to emerge.
