Etiology of basic psychological needs and their association with personality: A twin study
2022, Journal of Research in PersonalityCitation Excerpt :Apart from such global estimates, there have also been meta-analyses with different behavioral-genetic methods as inclusion criteria, focusing on the heritability of various specific phenotypes, e.g., cognitive ability (Briley & Tucker-Drob, 2013), educational achievement (de Zeeuw et al., 2015), autism (Tick et al., 2016), well-being (Bartels et al., 2015; Nes & Røysamb, 2015), or self-control (Willems et al., 2019). For personality as a phenotype, the meta-analysis of twin, adoption, family, and twin-family study designs showed an average heritability estimate of 0.40; however, this estimate was substantially moderated by study design, with twin studies resulting in higher estimates than adoption and family designs, indicating the possible importance of the non-additive genetic effect (Vukasović & Bratko, 2015; for twin studies effect sizes see also Polderman et al., 2015; for family studies effect sizes see also Bratko & Marušić, 1997; Bratko et al., 2014). The environmental effect that contributes to individual differences in personality was also substantial, and non-shared by the individuals living in the same environment.
Identifying family personality profiles using latent profile analysis: Relations to happiness and health
2022, Personality and Individual DifferencesCitation Excerpt :Furthermore, the behavior genetics literature consistently shows a 30–50% heritability estimate for the Big Five personality traits (Bouchard & Loehlin, 2001; Segal et al., 2018). Indeed, resemblance among family members has been demonstrated with low positive correlations (Bratko & Marusic, 1997; Loehlin, 1992). Due to this covariation, examining family personality profiles collectively is of value.
Are adolescents who consume pornography different from those who engaged in online sexual activities?
2020, Children and Youth Services ReviewCitation Excerpt :In a cross-cultural study of 52 nations (Schmitt, 2004), higher extraversion was linked with offline partnered sexual promiscuity. Although most studies were conducted on adults, there is a growing body of evidence to support its applicability to adolescents and importance for adolescent research and theory-building (see, for example, Bratko and Marušić (1997); Digman, 1989, 1997; Ehrler, Evans, & McGhee, 1999; Goldberg, 1990, Grazlano & Ward, 1992; Heaven, 1996; Robins, John, Caspi, Moffitt, & Stouthamer-Loeber, 1996; Rothbart, Ahadi, & Evans, 2000). We therefore hypothesize that adolescents who mainly consume pornography would be more neurotic, less extrovert (i.e., more introvert) and agreeable and with lower conscientious judgement than those who do not consume pornography.
The intergenerational transmission of trait emotional intelligence: The mediating role of parental autonomy support and psychological control
2018, Journal of AdolescenceCitation Excerpt :Several studies have shown that parental characteristics could be transmitted to their offspring, such as self-criticism (Bleys et al., 2016), self-control (Wang, Fan, Tao, & Gao, 2017), empathy (Soenens, Duriez, Vansteenkiste, & Goossens, 2007), and perfectionism (Smith et al., 2017). Results of this study showed a positive correlation of adolescent trait EI with paternal and maternal trait EI, confirming the results from Vernon, Petrides et al. (2008) that suggested a heritability proportion of trait EI similar to other personality traits (Bratko & Marušić, 1997). Findings from this study were also in line with the broader literature on intergenerational transmission (Kitamura et al., 2009), which established that the significant patterns of transmission of personal characteristics from one generation to the next could be partially mediated by parents' rearing style.
Physical activity and personality: A behaviour genetic analysis
2017, Psychology of Sport and ExerciseCitation Excerpt :However, there is a systematic divergence between twin and family/adoption studies. While typical twin studies converge to the heritability estimates around 0.40 (e.g. van den Berg et al., 2014), family/adoption studies estimates are lower, more in a neighbourhood of 0.25 (e.g. Bratko & Marušić, 1997). Physical activity or inactivity also seems to be a phenotype that shows significant genetic effect.
