heritability
... If happiness is 50% heritable, it does not mean that Joe’s happiness level is 50% determined by his genes and 50% determined by environment. It DOES mean that genetics influence 50% of the differences in happiness we see between him and another person. 2.If identical twins show difference in IQ, the ...
