Genetic Influences on Peer and Family Relationships Across Adolescent Development: Introduction to the Special Issue

Abstract: Nearly all aspects of human development are influenced by genetic and environmental factors, which conjointly shape development through several gene-environment interplay mechanisms. More recently, researchers have begun to examine the influence of genetic factors on peer and family relationships across the pre-adolescent and adolescent time periods. This article introduces the special issue by providing a critical overview of behavior genetic methodology and existing research demonstrating gene-environment pr… Show more

“…They are similar to long-identified concerns about research integrity (i.e., high false-positive rates) that have received increasing attention in the social sciences (e.g., see analyses of cognitive science, Ioannidis et al 2014; also see clinical science, Mueller et al 2014; also see developmental science, Duncan et al 2014). They also have been raised in journals dedicated to the adolescent period (Mullineaux and DiLalla 2015;Levesque 2015). However, prior responses to these types of challenges focused on, for example, making proper covariate adjustments, such as has been championed in personality (Hull et al 1992) and social psychological (Yzerbyt et al 2004) research.…”

“…Parental involvement in monitoring child development is crucial for good child growth and development. [16][17][18] Under-five mothers, cadres, health care workers, and the community must understand the importance of growth and development monitoring. It is necessary to ensure that the parents have the appropriate knowledge and awareness regarding brain development monitoring through routine and guided monitoring to ensure the child's optimum growth.…”

“…However, parents and their offsprings might act in similar ways because of genetic confounding [for a discussion see ( 59 )], an important factor which we did not account for in the current study. In fact genetic factors might also influence what type of peers adolescent choose to socialize with [for a critical review on this topic see: ( 59 , 60 ); see also: ( 61 )]. A related point is that although the peer predictors we investigated might give us more information on delinquent peer influence processes compared to the more traditional method of assessing whether or not friends/peers' delinquency predict adolescents' own delinquency, we did not account for peer selection effects.…”
