Genetic and Environmental Influences on Personality: A Study of Twins Reared Together Using the Self‐ and Peer Report NEO‐FFI Scales
Abstract
ABSTRACT Previous behavior‐genetic research on personality has been almost exclusively based on self‐report questionnaire measures. The purpose of this research was to measure personality constructs via self‐ and peer reports on the items of the NEO Five‐Factor Inventory (Costa & McCrae, 1989). The sample included 660 monozygotic and 200 same sex and 104 opposite sex dizygotic twin pairs. We collected self‐ and two independent peer reports for each of the twins. Our analysis of self‐report data replicates earlier findings of a substantial genetic influence on the Big Five (h2= .42 to .56). We also found this influence for peer reports. Our results validate findings based solely on self‐reports. However, estimates of genetic contributions to phenotypic variance were substantially higher when based on peer reports (h2= .51 to .81) or self‐ and peer reports (h2= .66 to .79) because these data allowed us to separate error variance from variance due to nonshared environmental in‐fluences. Correlations between self‐ and peer reports reflected the same genetic influences to a much higher extent than identical environmental effects.

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.
