ou got us wrong! 0e believe that

intelligen.e $)T de.ide intelligen.e
as we have defined earlier.
A hard pill to swallow 9 we have more
srups!
Members of the House, as # have
.larified the skewed definitions of the

Members of the House,
0e, as the $egative believe that
intelligen.e is b nature and
nurtured.
Geneti. fa.tors ma pla a role
initiall 21T intelligen.e per se,
needs to be developed!
An e/ample to prove this is from a
resear.h finding taken from
neuros.ien.e and
neurops.hologi.al point of view"
:. Humans are thinkers, generations
b generations .opied ever single
abilities stored in a .ell.
;. $ature shapes, develops and
adapts the innate intelligen.e to be
.ompatible with the new world!
)ur :s (oint"
#ntelligen.e is nurtured $)T 'e.ided
Members of the House,
$urture en.ompasses upbringing9
the
relationships and intera.tions of the
mind
and bod with everthing around.
#n the :<=>s, a $ew ?ealand@based
politi.al s.ientist, Aames ,lnn,
noti.ed
that intelligen.e grows rapidl and
predominantl based on"
:. $umber of ears in s.hool

B. ,atherCs profession
D. ,atherCs e.onomi. status
E. (arental ambition
F. MotherCs edu.ation
G. Average book@reading
=. Self@.onfiden.e
<. %motional adaptation
Tell us, m dear opposition, have ou
not
seen worldwide eviden.e,
dis.overies and
s.ientifi. resear.h on how
intelligen.e is
nurtured and b nature4
Ameri.an ps.hologist Aohn 0atson,
best known for his .ontroversial
e/periments with a oung orphan
named Albert, proved that
intelligen.e is nurtured. 0atson used
an :: month@old Albert to prove that
a person .ould be .onditioned to be
afraid of something b whi.h he was
not previousl affe.ted. Albert was
put into a room with no other human

and no other distra.ters present.
0atson pla.ed a white rat in the
room. Albert seemed to like the rat9
he even showed affe.tion towards it.
Sometime later, 0atson would
produ.e a ver loud noise ever time
Albert would rea.h out to tou.h the
rat. As a result, the bab be.ame
terrified of ever white and furr
obje.t in whi.h he .ame in .onta.t.
The realiHation from learning
nurtures Albert-s rea.tion to the rats.
0atson said" IGive me a doHen
health infants, well@formed, and m
own spe.ified world to bring them up
in and #Cll guarantee to take an one
at random and train him to be.ome
an tpe of spe.ialist # might
sele.t...regardless of his talents,
pen.hants, tenden.ies, abilities,
vo.ations and ra.e of his an.estors.-
M dear opposition9 would ou
be.ome Albert-s .ompanion4
Members of the House, allow me to
give ou another finding.
Harvard ps.hologist 2. ,. SkinnerCs
earl e/periments produ.ed pigeons
that .ould dan.e, do figure eights,
and pla tennis. Toda known as the
father of behavioral s.ien.e, he
eventuall went on to prove that
human behavior .ould be
.onditioned in mu.h the same wa as
animals. #n addition, the amount of
nourishment an individual re.eives
has been proven to pla a ver large
part in a person-s intelligen.e.
