Answer the below statement
“People are naturally good” or “People are naturally bad.” Come up with the basic assumptions of each argument and come up with justifications and research for that argument. Which assumption is the most influential? Why?
Overview
Fundamentally, are humans good or evil? It’s a question that has been asked throughout history. For thousands of years, philosophers have argued whether we have a fundamentally good nature that is corrupted by society, or a fundamentally bad nature that is restrained by society. Psychology has discovered some evidence that may give the old debate a new spin.
Looking at babies is one way to inquire about our most fundamental characteristics. Babies’ minds are a wonderful representation of human nature. Babies are humans with little cultural influence; they don’t have many friends, have never been to school, and haven’t read any books. They can’t even control their own bowels, let alone speak the language, so their minds are in a state of disarray.

How could the experiments have revealed this? Consider yourself a baby. Because you have a short attention span, the experiment will be much shorter and more enjoyable than most psychology experiments. It was essentially a puppet show, with the stage featuring a bright green hill and the puppets being cut-out shapes with stick-on wobbly eyes; a triangle, a square, and a circle, each in their own bright colors. What followed was a short play in which one of the shapes attempted to climb the hill, struggling up and falling back down. The other two shapes then got involved, with one helping the climber up the hill by pushing up from behind, and the other hindering the climber by pushing up from behind.
