their explanation of that?
"These findings should encourage caution among those who claim that the frequently trivial variance attributed to shared environments in behavioral genetic models means that families, schools, and neighborhoods do not meaningfully influence these outcomes."
Yeah there is a difference between a critique of the methodology behind twin studies and actually producing some empirical evidence that contradicts them lol
yes, they just encourage caution
they don't claim to be some big btfo
and I don't know how people have responded to them
` Using monozygotic twin fixed effects models, which compare outcomes among genetically identical pairs, we show that many characteristics of objectively shared environments significantly moderate the effects of nonshared environments on adolescent academic achievement and verbal intelligence, violating the additivity assumption of behavioral genetic methods. `
I'll have to investigate that
Damn, they do more than encourage caution
How dishonest can you be?
I just quoted them
They aren't JUST encouraging caution
```Another study, commissioned by the editor of the journal Science, looked at genetics and IQ. The Minnesota researchers found that about 70 percent of IQ variation across the twin population was due to genetic differences among people, and 30 percent was due to environmental differences. The finding received both praise and criticism, but an updated study in 2009 containing new sets of twins found a similar correlation between genetics and IQ.```
I didn't say they were
I said that was their conclusion
and I'm right
lol
He's offering sociological shit
You could literally cite me an infinite number of heritability studies, @TheUserNameofPeace, and it won't budge me one inch
Sociology is literally only able to survive so long as PC HR departments are around
@TheUserNameofPeace critique the study, sophist
Prove that
@BabygottBach I already defeated you
Show proof of that claim
You are just dogmatic
Won't change
No you haven't
Set piece
Your dogma is literally "sociology bad"
no proof
You haven't read any of the studies
you can't address the studies directly
Why are twin, separated at birth, so similar in every respect?
You still haven't confronted this
All you have are parthetic, pitiful, ad hom attacks on sociology
we show that many characteristics of objectively shared environments significantly moderate the effects of nonshared environments on adolescent academic achievement and verbal intelligence, violating the additivity assumption of behavioral genetic methods.
Oh my
this doesn't make any sense to me
