Against Genetic Tests for Athletic Talent: The Primacy of the Phenotype.

Sports medicine (Auckland, N.Z.) - 1 Sept 2015

Loland Sigmund

Abstract excerpt

New insights into the genetics of sport performance lead to new areas of application. One area is the use of genetic tests to identify athletic talent. Athletic performances involve a high number of complex phenotypical traits. Based on the ACCE model (review of Analytic and Clinical validity, Clinical utility, and Ethical, legal and social implications), a critique is offered of the lack of validity and...
