==== Social construction ====
The individual personality is both determined by genetics and shaped by [[social context]]s.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Judith|first=University of Helsinki, Department of Finnish, Finno-Ugrian and Scandinavian Studies Koski, Sonja Burkart|url=http://worldcat.org/oclc/951545397|title=Common marmosets show social plasticity and group-level similarity in personality|date=6 March 2015|publisher=Nature Publishing Group|oclc=951545397}}</ref> Miller et al. (2016) examined the role of the developmental and social environment in personality formation in common ravens and carrion crows, which are highly social corvids. The researchers highlighted the correlation between social contexts and an individual's consistent behavior over time (personality), by showing that conspecific presence promoted the behavioral similarities between individuals. Therefore, the researchers demonstrated that social contexts had a significant impact on the development of the raven's and crow's personalities.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Miller|first1=Rachael|last2=Laskowski|first2=Kate L.|last3=Schiestl|first3=Martina|last4=Bugnyar|first4=Thomas|last5=Schwab|first5=Christine|date=5 February 2016|editor-last=Hemelrijk|editor-first=Charlotte K|title=Socially Driven Consistent Behavioural Differences during Development in Common Ravens and Carrion Crows|journal=PLOS ONE|volume=11|issue=2|pages=e0148822|doi=10.1371/journal.pone.0148822|issn=1932-6203|pmc=4746062|pmid=26848954|bibcode=2016PLoSO..1148822M|doi-access=free}}</ref>
