- Abstract:
Dr. Eric Turkheimer focused on the nonshared environment project and pointed to the nonshared environment and its components as the central problem of human scientific psychology. He described three causal models, applying them to each genetic and environmental causation, and concluded that rough measurements lead to detectable causations, but more precise measurements make the effects harder to detect.
