Rebecca SearEveryone who thinks genes matter for behaviour should read this book 👇 it describes how behaviour genetics became a ‘misbehaving science’ after Jensen’s claim that genes determine racial differences in IQ destabilised the field. Research in this area should be treated with caution
And not because genes are irrelevant for behaviour but because the current state of research in this area is problematic. Science is done by humans & humans are flawed
Mel Bartley@rebeccasear Makes sense. For example, it must be genes that give us the shape,of mouth, tongue, etc, that allow speech.
