If anything the studies argues for the contrary and the people interviewed just can't be bothered to put 2 and 2 together.
>2 children with similar genetics and practically the same upbringing have similar personalities
>therefore the reason they behave similarly is because of genetics!
Apparently, the more children you have the more likely you are to think that personality is genetical...
Man do you need some extra IQ points? I can spare you some I think.
Unlike what you think, two brothers have very different combinations of genes from their father and mother. You are thinking "They are 99.99% similar hurrr". The idea is that the parents try raising their children the same way, and the kids grow to be very different, so they conclude it is genetic.
>The idea is that the parents try raising their children the same way, and the kids grow to be very different, so they conclude it is genetic.
that would only apply if they were 99.99% similar. but they are not, like you just said, so how can they come to that conclusion? also, "raising a kid the same way" is not identical environmental conditions. you can never fully emulate another's environmental influence, except with maybe the case with Genie, but that would be... slightly unethical
>that would only apply if they were 99.99% similar.
Nope.
>raising a kid the same way
Yes they do, this is very common, the parents see this as being far. Whatever uncontrollable difference happens is unsymmetrical to how much the kids differ later on, even at early years. Please, you are not so smart, just refrain from discussing here, go masturbate or something.
>Whatever uncontrollable difference happens is unsymmetrical to how much the kids differ later on, even at early years
what a claim. please back it up. how about you refrain from making claims which are not based in anything.
again. raising a child in "similar fashion" is NOT going to produce the same epigenetic changes in both children. that's absolutely unfounded
>What is the reason for this?
Probably caused by genetics.
The opposite to this argument would be that parents raise their kids in dissimilar ways, and the kids have different personalities despite similar genes, which would prompt an alternate conclusion than OP's chart.
Notice that women have higher scores on this chart in every category. Women feel more genetically attached to children than men, because men often see their genetic contribution as less than a woman (despite equal genetic components, women bare children for 9 months). If women associate their genetics with their kids more than men, then they will associate their personality with their kids' personalities more than men do.
Men, on the other hand, often see life experiences as their contribution to raising a child (at a low level, you could talk about "being there" for your kids, attending games, support, etc.) Therefore, they like to associate these things with their child's development, possibly to compensate for their apparent lack of genetic contribution.
Nah.
but OP's chart isnt data. it's literal speculation. it's
>% who attribute personality primarily to genes rather than to life experience
it could be 100% down the board but that's just their opinion, their own personal assertion not based on molecular biology
