Cultural Evolution of Genetic Heritability

2020-06-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Behavioral genetics and cultural evolution have both revolutionized our understanding of human behavior, but largely independently of each other. Here we reconcile these two fields using a dual inheritance approach, which offers a more nuanced understanding of the interaction between genes and culture, and a resolution to several long-standing puzzles. For example, by neglecting how human enviro...
