Genetic and environmental contributions to prosocial behaviour in 2- to 9-year-old South Korean twins.

Biology letters - 22 Dec 2007

Hur Yoon-Mi, Rushton J Philippe

Abstract excerpt

Although over 50 twin and adoption studies have been performed on the genetic architecture of antisocial behaviour, far fewer studies have investigated prosocial behaviour, and none have done so on a non-western population. The present study examined mothers' ratings of prosocial behaviour in 514 pairs of 2- to 9-year-old South Korean monozygotic and dizygotic twins. Correlational analyses showed a tendency of...
