Reference no: EM1353193

The Pervin, Cervone, and John text discusses research on the brain systems involved in higher-level psychological functions, such as self-concept and moral judgment. Consider how much we can learn about such psychological functions by studying the brain. Answer the following questions in your study group

Because we know that some systems in the brain must be involved in any psychological function, does an analysis of underlying neuroanatomy answer the most pressing questions about personality?

Or, does this leave critical, unanswered questions about the ways in which these psychological capacities develop and function in the social world?

In essence, can there be a neuroscience of personality?

Provide one example of this in your own family of origin, how might this manifest itself? 250 words*
