"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."

2019-10-30 06:41:11 UTC  

Yeah there is a difference between a critique of the methodology behind twin studies and actually producing some empirical evidence that contradicts them lol

2019-10-30 06:41:16 UTC  

yes, they just encourage caution

2019-10-30 06:41:23 UTC  

they don't claim to be some big btfo

2019-10-30 06:41:34 UTC  

and I don't know how people have responded to them

2019-10-30 06:41:38 UTC  

` 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. `

2019-10-30 06:41:38 UTC  

I'll have to investigate that

2019-10-30 06:41:45 UTC  

Damn, they do more than encourage caution

2019-10-30 06:41:52 UTC  

How dishonest can you be?

I just quoted them

2019-10-30 06:42:23 UTC  

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.```

2019-10-30 06:42:45 UTC  

I didn't say they were

2019-10-30 06:42:49 UTC  

I said that was their conclusion

2019-10-30 06:42:56 UTC  

and I'm right

2019-10-30 06:42:57 UTC  

lol

2019-10-30 06:43:09 UTC  

He's offering sociological shit

2019-10-30 06:43:24 UTC  

You could literally cite me an infinite number of heritability studies, @TheUserNameofPeace, and it won't budge me one inch

2019-10-30 06:43:29 UTC  

Sociology is literally only able to survive so long as PC HR departments are around

2019-10-30 06:43:36 UTC  

@TheUserNameofPeace critique the study, sophist

2019-10-30 06:43:38 UTC  

Prove that

2019-10-30 06:43:39 UTC  

@BabygottBach I already defeated you

2019-10-30 06:43:42 UTC  

Show proof of that claim

2019-10-30 06:43:43 UTC  

You are just dogmatic

2019-10-30 06:43:45 UTC  

Won't change

2019-10-30 06:43:46 UTC  

No you haven't

2019-10-30 06:43:47 UTC  

Set piece

2019-10-30 06:43:52 UTC  

Your dogma is literally "sociology bad"

2019-10-30 06:43:54 UTC  

no proof

2019-10-30 06:44:02 UTC  

You haven't read any of the studies

2019-10-30 06:44:08 UTC  

you can't address the studies directly

2019-10-30 06:44:12 UTC  

Why are twin, separated at birth, so similar in every respect?

2019-10-30 06:44:20 UTC  

You still haven't confronted this

2019-10-30 06:44:21 UTC  

All you have are parthetic, pitiful, ad hom attacks on sociology

2019-10-30 06:44:21 UTC

2019-10-30 06:44:23 UTC  

Oh my

2019-10-30 06:44:25 UTC  

this doesn't make any sense to me

2019-10-30 06:44:26 UTC  

nice deflection
