The research: https://www.nature.com/articles/ng.3285

You're sources are bull. Ones a paywall the other is a rambling opinion piece.

The dude cites Nature Genetics and a post calling it bullshit because it's behind an academic paywall gets upmarseyd. Marvelous.

He goes on to explain later:

tldr -> twin studies show that genetics are the majority of explained behaviors, and being raised in the same or different households did nearly nothing. (i.e., identical twins raised apart end up being the same, and fraternal twins do not end up any more similar being raised in the same house or a different house)

They've done studies like this on twins also for things like addiction (born to parents with alcoholism, crack addiction, etc.) and it turns out twins brought up in different circumstances yield different results. The whole "muh genetics dictate muh behavior" Doesn't really stand too well imo.

Which studies are you referring to? Because many of the results from the Minnesota Twins Study show a staggering correlation in adult phenotypes in twins separated at birth.

I don't remember exactly, these studies were referenced in college textbooks when I was studying developmental psychology. This was like 10 years ago.

Are you sure that the books didn't actually show the exact opposite thing?

Yeah I'm pretty sure, but after checking another source it seems like I either read it wrong or got a bad source. Hmmmm.
