But I thought they did say that the Doctor is not the same person? I mean, his personality changes pretty drastically - I only saw transition from nine to ten, but wasn't the Doctor himself curious what kind of a person he would turn out to be this time around?

(I once read somewhere that this is sort-of the nature vs nurture thing - the "nurture" aspect of himself doesn't change, because why would it, but his basic nature does. But I'm not sure where and how long ago, so.)

RTD tended to frame regenerations like the death of a person. But it varies depending on the showrunner.

Like some fans got REALLY annoyed at RTD for how he framed Ten's regeneration because Ten didn't want to go and he viewed regeneration as death.

So yeah, it's not something that really has a solid consensus in canon or in fandom.

RE Nature vs. Nurture,

It's kinda the opposite I think. Nine was all broody and needed Rose's wide-eyed wonder and innocence about the universe to bring him back from the post-Time War dark place that he was born in. Ten was born in a war too but Rose/The Bad Wolf was his mother so he struggled with the balance between serious human emotion and all the intensity of the Time Vortex/Heart of the TARDIS. After all of Ten's pain, Eleven is born and he's just so happy to be alive. He's full of wonder and excitement and he's looking for family instead of running from it like Ten did, but there's still that darkness underneath because he's still the Lonely God, after all.

So it's kinda the circumstances under which each incarnation is 'born' that feeds into their personality (according to NuWho anyway).
