My twin sister and I celebrating our first Christmas (Can you guess who is who?)

A Relatable Topic

Originally, I had much too many ideas on topics to blog about, and since I knew that I wanted to take a scientific approach towards my essential question, all the topics I was interested in were relating to this branch. My other ideas were exceptionally broad, and being undecisive as I am, I couldn't come to a decision on what to dimish them to. Thus, I resorted to tackling my curiosity regarding what twin studies have revealed about the environmental vs. genetic effects on people.

The primary reason why I chose this topic to begin with has to do with being a twin myself. In being so, I can connect with the studies that I will endeavor in and relate to them on a personal account. However, a major portion of my interest in this topic comes from the psychology behind it. Therefore, my principal reasons for deciding to study this subject come from a relation on a personal account entwined with an interest in the science behind the topic.

Having a seemingly identical counterpart, I have a natural curiosity on the matter, and have for a long time desired to extend my limited knowledge on the subject. I hope that my findings guide me towards an even greater respect for psychology.

Me and my twin sister, Marina
