Nature Vs Nurture

Cult Hackers - A podcast by Cult Hackers

Do some born-in cult members experience greater harm than others because they happen to have certain personality traits? Psychology suggests that we inherit at least some of our personality traits through our genes. What are the implications for people raised in a cult? How does the presence of certain traits affect how we respond to cult indoctrination? This week Celine and Stephen look at how we research and understand individual differences, how much of these differences are down to our genes or environment, what this means for personal agency and how different traits might mean some cult 'born-ins' have a much worse time than others.  If you'd like to become a patron you can do so for just $1:50 a month https://www.patreon.com/whatshouldithinkabout   Bike and Psych  https://youtu.be/Q1k7G3Mt5ns   References Miell, D., Phoenix, A., & Thomas, K.
