This special issue amply fulfils its aim of moving the study of gene× environment (GE)
interplay forward constructively and creatively, exploiting contributions from diverse …

Gene–environment interplay is a general term that covers several divergent concepts with
different meanings and different implications. In this review, we evaluate research evidence …

Moore and Thoemmes elaborate on one particular source of difficulty in the study of
candidate gene‐by‐environment interactions (cG× E): how different biologically plausible …

Although the field of psychiatry has witnessed the proliferation of studies on Gene×
Environment (G× E) interactions, still limited is the knowledge we possess of G× E …

The synthesis of quantitative genetics and molecular genetics is transforming research in the
behavioural sciences. The ability to measure inherited DNA differences directly has led to …

Background Psychiatric disorders run in families, and early twin, family and adoption studies
confirmed that this was due in part to shared genetic inheritance. While candidate gene …

Modern research acknowledges that psychopathology and individual differences in normal
development are the joint products of both biological and social influences. Although there …

We review gene× environment interaction (G× E) research in behavioral and psychiatric
genetics. Two approaches to G× E are contrasted: a latent-variable approach that seeks to …

This Special Issue of Development and Psychopathology is devoted to the topic of gene–
environment interaction (G x E) and developmental psychopathology. GxE, one of several …

It is now generally accepted that complex mental disorders are the results of interplay
between genetic and environmental factors. This holds out the prospect that by studying G× …
