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 …

Has your field addressed idea that complexity theory regards emergent properties like behaviour as *inherently* irreducible & unpredictable?
If complexity theory was right about that, we wouldn't be able to find additive genetic influences on all behavioral traits. But we do.

Wait. For *all* behavioural traits, you are saying there is direct correlation with identified combinations of genes? Sans environment?

Twin studies reveal additivity for all traits; GCTA studies are confirming at the molecular level: http://www.gwern.net/docs/genetics/2016-plomin.pdf …,

Hang on.. "Influences" meaning not direct/merely correlating imperfectly? Doesn't that mean statistically relevant, as in via epidemiology?
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
