Genes have been shown to influence everything
: “All traits are heritable” is a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much. Concrete behavioral traits that patently depend on content
provided by the home or culture are, of course, not heritable at all; which language you speak, which religion you worship in, which political party you belong to. But
behavioral traits that reflect the underlying talents and temperaments are heritable: how proficient with language you are, how religious, how liberal or conservative.
General intelligence is heritable, and so are the five major ways in which personality can vary . . . openness to experience, conscientiousness, extroversion-introversion,
antagonism-agreeableness, and neuroticism. And traits that are surprisingly specific turn out to be heritable, too, such as dependence on nicotine or alcohol, number of
hours of television watched, and likelihood of divorcing. Thomas J. Bouchard, “Genetic Influence on Human Psychological Traits,” Current Directions in Psychological
