  1. 1Heritability research seeks to find out:

    1. AHow important intelligence is for school performance.
    2. Bow important genes are compared to the environment when it comes to explaining differences between people in some trait or characteristic.
    3. CWhich genes determine intelligence.
  2. 2Heritability refers to:
    1. AThe extent to which differences between groups in society are due to genetic factors.
    2. BThe extent to which a person’s intelligence is determined by their genetic heritage.
    3. CThe extent to which variability, within a population, in a particular trait or characteristic, is explained by difference in genetic makeup.
  3. 3 A heritability estimate is:
    1. AA figure that describes the extent to which a person’s intelligence is due to their genes.
    2. BA figure that describes the extent to which variability in a trait (in this case intelligence) is accounted for by variability in genes.
    3. CA figure that describes how much of a group’s average intellectual ability is accounted for by their genetic heritage.
  4. 4Genes play a role in explaining differences in intelligence.
    1. AEugenicist.
    2. BHereditarian.
    3. CBoth.
  5. 5The [blank_start]Eugenicist[blank_end] view is that intelligence is fixed and unalterable by circumstances in life.
    1. AEugenicist
    2. Bhereditarian
  6. 6The [blank_start]Hereditarian[blank_end] view is that an individuals intelligence is the product of a complex interaction between [blank_start]genes[blank_end] and [blank_start]environment[blank_end]
    1. AHereditarian
    2. Bgenes
    3. Cenvironment
  7. 7According to intelligence research, what does the 'missing heritability problem' refer to?
    1. AThe inability to agree on what intelligence is.
    2. BThe inability of scientists to identify specific genes that differentiate high and low scorers on IQ tests.
    3. CThe inability to come up with a precise heritability estimate
  8. 8Which of these tests are a method of studying heritability of intelligence
    1. AStudies of twins reared apart.
    2. BThe army testing programme.
    3. CThe Human Genome Project.
  9. 9What is the 'equal enviornment assumption?
    1. AThe assumption that genes and the environment contribute equally to the development of intelligence.
    2. BThe assumption that all people are equal in terms of their abilities.
    3. CThe assumption that twins raised together experience roughly equal environments, regardless of how much of their genetic material they share (whether they are identical or non-identical twins).
