Are there shared environmental influences on adolescent behavior? Evidence from a study of adoptive siblings.

Behavior genetics - 1 Sept 2009

Buchanan Jacob P, McGue Matt, Keyes Margaret, Iacono William G

Abstract excerpt

The failure to identify specific non-shared environmental influences on behavior coupled with the belief that shared environmental factors contribute minimally to individual differences in behavior has led to the concern that major environmental determinants of behavior may be idiosyncratic, and therefore undetectable. We used data on adoptive (N = 246) and biologically related (N = 130) same-sex sibling pairs...
