The present research was conducted to study the difference
between personality traits of identical and fraternal twins. At the
same time it studies the personality traits of identical twins as
well as fraternal twins. Two scales were administered that
included self constructed demographic data and California
Psychological Inventory.One hundred and twenty participants
were interviewed during the present study. The sample was
drawn from different areas of NWFP that included Malakand,
Charsadda, Swabi, Mardan, and Peshawar. These participants
belonged to the upper middle and lower socio-economic classes..
All participants were interviewed individually and their
responses were recorded on the spot by the researcher. It was
indicated that identical and fraternal twins have few differences
in their personalities. It was concluded that despite sharing the
same genes, their different environment, parents rearing
practices and education do bring changes in their personalities. If
family environment is good and they have better education and
recreation facilities and their living standard is good, the child’s
personality will be composed and balanced. Parents and other
people should understand such twins and treat them as separate
individuals because they have individual personalities.
