How can I distinguish between a socially influenced personality trait and a biologically influenced personality trait, say for example depression tendencies. Something like thatcan be a chemical inbalance that runs in a family's gene pool, butcan also be influenced by society and the fact that perhaps thepeople around you are unable to cope with certain circumstances andtherefore, don't teach you how to cope with them either. This maynot be a good example, but I will rate lifesaver to anyone who canhelp me understand the difference and give me an example tohelp me understand this concept.
