Abstract

ABSTRACT Although research on personality and behavioral genetics has focused on the continuity of traits, both fields and their interface will profit from the consideration of trait change In this article we review personality research on age differences in hentabdity and propose the counterintuitive hypothesis that, when developmental changes in hentabihty are found, hentability tends to increase We also focus on behavioral genetic analyses of long‐term developmental change Research to date suggests that genetic involvement in adult personality change is slight whereas personality change in childhood is governed substantially by genetic factors Finally, we consider a new topic, genetic influence on short‐term change in personality

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
