Preferred term

genetics and human development  

Definition

  • The relationship between genes and behavioral development is quite complex and has resulted in a long history of vexing scientific, ethical, and political debate. Improper metaphors for the functioning of genes have suppressed recognition of the impact of development in behavioral genetics and in popular conceptualization of genetics and behavior.
