Advances in the behavior genetic study of personality and ability traits Rainer Riemann Bielefeld University, Germany From several decades of behavioral genetic research a clear picture of the etiology of broad personality and ability traits emerged: Genetic variation and experiences specific to the individual cause individual differences in personality traits, whereas experiences shared by members of the same family have a negligible on personality development and adult general mental ability. In recent years the focus of behavioral genetic research shifted from quantitative estimates of genetic and environmental effects to the study of genetic and environmental influences on the covariation among traits (i.e., the structure of personality and abilities) and the study of the interplay between genes and the environmental and its consequences for the development of individual differences. Both lines of research will be reviewed here and their implications for the study of personality will be examined.
