Temperament

Temperament refers to the innate characteristics and tendencies that shape how individuals react to their environment, express emotions, and interact with others. It is often thought of as the biological foundation of personality, influencing factors such as mood, energy levels, and social behavior. Temperament is typically assessed through various styles, such as being calm or anxious, sociable or reserved, and adaptable or rigid. While it plays a significant role in early development, temperament can interact with experiences and environment, leading to a unique personality throughout one's life.
