Georgina has a double stroller for her 11-month-old fraternal twins. She has noticed that when someone stops to admire the child
ren, Jonah smiles and laughs if the stranger talks to him, while Irene is more likely to look up at her mother with an uncertain expression. If the stranger talks to Irene, she ducks her head and sometimes even covers her eyes with her hands. Since Georgina has treated both of her children the same way, she knows that Jonah and Irene have different:
When we speak of temperament, we refer to that innate part of our personality that is determined by our genetic heritage. Therefore, it is considered the biological and instinctive dimension of personality. In fact, temperament is the first personality factor to manifest.
In babies it is already possible to distinguish different types of temperament. Thus, depending on their tendency to feel and express positive or negative emotions and a good or bad mood, it is possible to consider them children as "easier" or "difficult" in behavioral terms. As you can see from the question above, Jonah is a baby with an easier temperament, while Irene is a baby with a difficult temperament.
