PSYCH 9C Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Trait Theory, Stereotype Threat, Achievement Test
Document Summary
Genetic factors: identical twins highly correlated, non-identical twins not as similar. People used findings to segregate different groups of people: they used this to justify why they had certain policies (immigration?) Groups differ: some said it"s because genetically we seem different, genetically some are better just an idea. Get two packets of seeds and they say we are interested in knowing if these two seeds are different. We think that one of these packets has genetically excellent plants and will group up to be superior plants. And they will let us do it for free kinda because they love science: and then you are looking for another area to plant the seeds. And so one person says that a place near india needs: india. Wide open, don"t have to worry about trees because there are none or any other plants so there is no competition. Plant your seeds in this other area.
