Genetic analysis of sensation seeking with an extended twin design.

Behavior genetics - 1 Mar 2006

Stoel R D, De Geus E J C, Boomsma D I

Abstract excerpt

The heritability of sensation seeking is investigated in an extended twin design, including mono- and dizygotic twins and their siblings. Besides a comparison of the phenotypic resemblance between monozygotic twins and dizygotic twins, the design allows for an explicit test of the assumption that results from twins may be generalized to the singleton population. Secondly, the design offers the opportunity to...
