Personality is molded by both heredity and environmental factors from birth. The environment one is born and raised in, including family, school, peers, and culture, influences maturation and provides learning opportunities that mold personality patterns. Child training methods and identification are two techniques used to mold personality, with the former aiming to produce individuals confirming to cultural standards and the latter involving imitation.

Authoritarian:-This method are characterized by the use


of strict rules and regulation. It is done out of fear of
punishment or scolding
Democratic:- It emphasis the need for discussion,
explanation and reasoning. Punishment is given in
extreme cases and that too very mild. It emphasis on the
educational training of children by explaining them why.
Permissive:-This method are not actually child training
as it permits children to learn what they wish to from the
consequences of their acts. The young learn more by
trial and error rather by guidance.
