Behavioral genetics is a field of study which seeks to understand the genetic and environmental influences on behavior and mental processes. This study is accomplished through the use of scientific methods such as observations, animal research, twin studies, and through research of gene expression, both in specific organisms and across the course of evolutionary history. The study of behavioral genetics has gained a great deal of momentum in recent decades, thanks to advances in technology that have allowed geneticists to look deeper into the genomes of various organisms, in a more detailed and efficient manner than ever before. With such advancements, scientists have been able to identify many of the genes that are responsible for certain behaviors and, in some cases, even trace the evolutionary history of certain genes. For instance, the study of genetic influences on social and cognitive behaviors has allowed us to gain an understanding of how different environments have shaped certain behaviors. We can make links between genetics and behaviors, such as intelligence, language complexicity, and even empathy and morality. Overall, understanding the relationship between genetics and behavior can allow us to better comprehend the biological reasons behind behavior and give us ideas for new therapies to treat behavioral disorders. Behavioral genetics provides us with important evidence on the development of behavior and can give us insight into evolutionary biases that shape everyday behavior. With further study, it may be possible to gain a better understanding of the genomic basis for social and cognitive behaviors and disorders.
