Hotly Debated Topics in the Nature/Nurture Debate

Begin with an introduction to the topic which explains both the question of nature vs. nurture as well as the topic your chose for research and your own ideasa on it's causes (explain what you think before any research is done that could change your opinion.)
In the body of the essay, explain (using the research you have done) what the beliefs are from psychology/other sciences about the origins of this human characteristic.  What research has been done to determine this? Are there both biological and environmental causes?
Finish your essay with a short conclusion which wraps up the ideas you have presented.
