The sociogenomics revolution is upon us, we are told. Whether revolutionary or not,
sociogenomics is poised to flourish given the ease of incorporating polygenic scores (or …

In this response, I focus on clarifying my arguments, highlighting consensus, and addressing
competing views about the utility of PGSs for social science. I also discuss an assortment of …

We contend that social science variables are the product of multiple partly heritable traits.
Genetic associations with socio-economic status (SES) may differ across populations, but …

This commentary is a call to action for researchers to create and use genome-wide
association studies (GWASs) with previously missed age groups (eg, infancy, elderly), which …

Abstract" Challenging the utility of polygenic scores for social science" is a compelling but
limited critique. Phenotypic development is sensitive to both initial conditions and all …

The problems with polygenic scores (PGSs) have been understated. The fact that they are
ancestry-specific means that biases related to sociodemographic factors would be …

Polygenic score (PGS) computations assume an additive model of gene action because
associations between phenotypes and alleles at different loci are compounded, ignoring …

Recent advances in sociogenomics offer new opportunities to integrate genetic and
epigenetic measures into social science research on human lifespan development. Now …

Abstract Background Genome scientists and Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications of
genetics (ELSI) scholars commonly inhabit distinct research cultures–utilizing different …

Polygenic scores cannot elucidate the mechanisms that produce behavioral phenotypes
(including “intelligence”). Therefore, they are unlikely to yield helpful interventions …
