ABSTRACT
This chapter explains how culture and personality are related and summarizes the nature/nurture debate. It discusses Maslow’s hierarchy and aims to Differentiate the id, ego, and superego. The chapter also explains how IQ is calculated and the problems with its use and explores deviance and name several sociological theories about deviance. It provides a social psychology perspective and considers the relationship between the individual and society. However, in any society the average individual is seldom aware of the extent to which culture restricts freedom. If the perfect child will make the perfect adult, the early 1980s produced a recipe to satisfy society’s appetite for good adjustment. In every human society, individuals have varied intelligence, which is the ability of a person to understand the situations that confront him or her and to make satisfactory adjustments to them insofar as such adjustments depend on learning and thinking.
