Has your field addressed idea that complexity theory regards emergent properties like behaviour as *inherently* irreducible & unpredictable?
If a trait's 40% heritable, then it's 60% due to family environment, socialization, and culture, right? Nope. The rest is mostly random.https://twitter.com/SteveStuWill/status/864603989253398528 …

If complexity theory was right about that, we wouldn't be able to find additive genetic influences on all behavioral traits. But we do.

Right. In addition to inhereting your parents' genes, many environmental factors you grew up w/ are extended phenotypes of parental genes

Random doesn't mean "without cause", just that it hasn't been/can't be identified?

Because I've seen some stuff that, to me, looks more like 19th century biological essentialism than anything that should be around in 2017.

Science is increasingly confirming that 19th C (or even 0th C) biological essentialism explains >50% of the spectrum of human behavior.

Indeed it is. Apparently evo psych doesn't think so.

And strangely, white nationalist fascists seem to be lapping it up. I dunno, that'd be a red flag for me. I'd at least pin a disclaimer.

Reading on CCP. Spot on. Same as with individual vs collective. *Both exist and both must be embraced as & where optimal*. Deny one = bad.
