Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Culture greatly affects how individuals experience and navigate through various stages of the life span. It shapes their beliefs, values, and behaviors, and influences their socialization, education, and relationships. Genetic lineage, the strength of one's id (a Freudian psychoanalytic concept), and the expression of one's phenotype (an individual's observable traits resulting from their genes and environment) may all play a role in some aspects of development, but they do not have as comprehensive and pervasive of an impact as culture.
