Pregunta 1
Pregunta
Heritability research seeks to find out:
Respuesta
-
How important intelligence is for school performance.
-
ow important genes are compared to the environment when it comes to explaining differences between people in some trait or characteristic.
-
Which genes determine intelligence.
Pregunta 2
Pregunta
Heritability refers to:
Respuesta
-
The extent to which differences between groups in society are due to genetic factors.
-
The extent to which a person’s intelligence is determined by their genetic heritage.
-
The extent to which variability, within a population, in a particular trait or characteristic, is explained by difference in genetic makeup.
Pregunta 3
Pregunta
A heritability estimate is:
Respuesta
-
A figure that describes the extent to which a person’s intelligence is due to their genes.
-
A figure that describes the extent to which variability in a trait (in this case intelligence) is accounted for by variability in genes.
-
A figure that describes how much of a group’s average intellectual ability is accounted for by their genetic heritage.
Pregunta 4
Pregunta
Genes play a role in explaining differences in intelligence.
Respuesta
-
Eugenicist.
-
Hereditarian.
-
Both.
Pregunta 5
Pregunta
The [blank_start]Eugenicist[blank_end] view is that intelligence is fixed and unalterable by circumstances in life.
Respuesta
-
Eugenicist
-
hereditarian
Pregunta 6
Pregunta
The [blank_start]Hereditarian[blank_end] view is that an individuals intelligence is the product of a complex interaction between [blank_start]genes[blank_end] and [blank_start]environment[blank_end]
Respuesta
-
Hereditarian
-
genes
-
environment
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
According to intelligence research, what does the 'missing heritability problem' refer to?
Respuesta
-
The inability to agree on what intelligence is.
-
The inability of scientists to identify specific genes that differentiate high and low scorers on IQ tests.
-
The inability to come up with a precise heritability estimate
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
Which of these tests are a method of studying heritability of intelligence
Respuesta
-
Studies of twins reared apart.
-
The army testing programme.
-
The Human Genome Project.
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
What is the 'equal enviornment assumption?
Respuesta
-
The assumption that genes and the environment contribute equally to the development of intelligence.
-
The assumption that all people are equal in terms of their abilities.
-
The assumption that twins raised together experience roughly equal environments, regardless of how much of their genetic material they share (whether they are identical or non-identical twins).
