The College of Education for Pure Sciences Organizes a Scientific Symposium on the Human Personality.
The Department of Biology at the College of Education for Pure Sciences organized a scientific symposium titled “Human Personality: Between Instinct and Life Experiences.”
The symposium was presented by Asst. Lect. Israa Ali Abu Shanah.
This symposium aims to define the human personality between instinct and life experiences as an essential aspect of human nature and behavior. It seeks to demonstrate the complementary relationship between what is innate in humans and what they acquire through life experiences. Humans were created with a pure nature that is driven by goodness, truth, and beauty, forming the primary foundation of their psychological and social balance. However, this nature does not develop in isolation from reality; rather, it is influenced by the experiences an individual undergoes from childhood within the family, then in school and society.
The symposium included several discussions on the ongoing interaction between nature and experience. The human personality, with its traits, tendencies, and values, is shaped by its balance when provided with a healthy educational environment, and by its disruption when nurtured or overwhelmed by negative experiences.
The researcher recommended paying attention to such topics because building a well-rounded personality requires a deep understanding of human nature and its development through positive life experiences. These experiences contribute to the formation of a mature, balanced individual capable of creativity and constructive interaction with their community, reflecting the values of goodness, compassion, and human awareness.
