Genetic and environmental influences on antisocial behavior: a meta-analysis of twin and adoption studies.
A meta-analysis of 51 twin and adoption studies was conducted to estimate the magnitude of genetic and environmental influences on antisocial behavior. The best fitting model included moderate proportions of variance due to additive genetic influences (.32), nonadditive genetic influences (.09), shared environmental influences (.16), and nonshared environmental influences (.43). The magnitude o...

Retrospective reports of AB during three different developmental periods were obtained: prior to age 15 years (childhood), age 15-17 years (adolescent), ...
متن کاملRunning head: GENETIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES Genetic and Environmental Influences on Prosocial Behavior
The obvious importance to human social functioning of prosocial behavior (behavior intended to benefit others) has led to extensive research on the sources of individual differences in prosociality, empathy, helping, cooperation, and altruism. At the species level, this markedly human trait has been explained in genetic terms. At the individual level, however, only about a dozen studies have di...

Because much developmental action is a...
