This is how DNA shapes our personality: over 1,200 genetic variants help determine personality
Un macroestudio que analiza a más de un millón de personas concluye que la influencia del ambiente familiar en el desarrollo de la curiosidad o la amabilidad es menor de lo que se pensaba
Researchers have long debated whether personality is shaped by biology or education. A study published in Nature by an international consortium has made a breakthrough, identifying 1,260 genetic variants linked to personality, including 824 previously unknown ones. These variants are scattered throughout the genome. The findings come from comparing identical twins with fraternal twins, taking advantage of their genetic similarities and differences. This research provides new insights into the genetic basis of personality.
