Genetic influences on psychological well-being: a nationally representative twin study.
OBJECTIVE Psychological well-being, or eudaimonia, features strongly in theories of human development and thriving. However, the factors of eudaimonia are debated, and their genetic architecture has not been studied in detail. METHOD A classical twin design was used to decompose behavioral variance into genetic and environmental components implemented in a multigroup, multivariate structural ...
متن کاملStability and Change in Genetic and Environmental Influences on Well-Being in Response to an Intervention
Genetic and environmental influences on complex traits can change in response to developmental and environmental contexts. Here we explore the impact of a positive activity intervention on the genetic and environmental influences on well-being and mental health in a sample of 750 adolescent twins. Twins completed a 10-week online well-being intervention, consisting of kindness and gratitude tas...

Genetic influences on premature parturition in an Australian twin sample.
We investigated possible genetic influences on women's liability to preterm birth, using data from a large sample of Australian female twin pairs. In a 1988-90 questionnaire survey, both members of 905 parous twin pairs (579 monozygotic and 326 dizygotic) reported on whether deliveries had been more than two weeks preterm. Tetrachoric twin pair correlations for first birth were rMZ = 0.20+/-0.1...
متن کاملA twin study of the genetic influences on the electroencephalogram.
Many attempts have been made to relate individual differences in the background electroencephalogram (EEG) to various psychiatric conditions (Glaser, 1963; Hill, 1963; Wilson, 1965) and equivalent investigations have recently been carried out with the averaged evoked response waveform (Shagass and Schwartz, 1961, 1962, 1963, and 1965; Jones et al, 1965; Callaway, Jones, and Donchin, 1970) and t...
