Key study: Holland et al (1988)

Key study: Holland et al (1988). Aim: To examine if there is a higher concordance rate between MZ twins than DZ twins for AN MZ twins share 100% of genes, DZ twins 50% If AN was genetic, there should be a higher rate amongst MZ twins. Key study: Holland et al (1988). Procedure

Shared and Unshared environments

Shared and Unshared environments. The findings that MZ twins reared together (same genes, same environment) do not yield perfect concordance rates have prompted psychologists to search for a possible explanation.
