A phenotypic null hypothesis for the genetics of personality.

Annual review of psychology - 1 Jan 2014

Turkheimer Eric, Pettersson Erik, Horn Erin E

Abstract excerpt

We review the genetically informed literature on the genetics of personality. Over the past century, quantitative genetic studies, using identical and fraternal twins, have demonstrated that differences in human personality are substantially heritable. We focus on more contemporary questions to which that basic observation has led. We examine whether differences in the heritability of personality are replicable...
