Using twin and adoption studies, behavior geneticists can mathematically estimate the degree to which variation among individuals can be attributed to their differing genes. The concept is heritability, the extent to which genes predispose certain behaviors or patterns that can be triggered by the environment. What some researchers are studying currently is gene-environment correlation, genetic propensities that encourage the selection of an environment that fosters their genetic propensity.
