determinism

Read a random definition: total failure of consideration

A quick definition of determinism:

Term: DETERMINISM

Definition: Determinism is the idea that the way people behave is mostly because of things that happened to them before, like their family or the environment they grew up in. It means that people don't have much control over their actions and choices. Deterministic means something that is caused by things that happened before and not by someone's own choice.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Determinism is a philosophy that suggests that human behavior is mainly controlled by preexisting conditions, such as family or environmental factors, and is not influenced by will.

Example: Let's say that a person grows up in a violent household where they witness abuse and aggression on a daily basis. According to determinism, this person's behavior is likely to be influenced by their upbringing, and they may be more prone to violent behavior themselves.

Explanation: This example illustrates determinism because it suggests that the person's behavior is determined by their environment and experiences, rather than their own free will. In other words, the person may not choose to be violent, but rather, their upbringing has conditioned them to behave in a certain way.
