Scientists studying 1,300 golden retrievers have uncovered genetic clues explaining why some dogs are more anxious, energetic, or aggressive than others. Remarkably, several of the same genes linked ...

Studying how all this genetic material works, and especially how genes influence human behavior, is an enormously complicated undertaking – one that's being made easier by the emergence of massive ...

Behavioral genetics is a field of scientific research that examines genetic and environmental contributions to individual differences in behavior. Behavioral genetics aims to answer the fundamental ...

The way we associate certain behavioral traits with certain breeds can be a huge factor in our relationships with dogs, from parents with toddlers and family-friendly labradors to couch potatoes and ...

An international collaboration headed by researchers from iPSYCH has found genetic variants that increase the risk of aggression in children with ADHD. In the same study, the researchers also ...

Many dog breeds are purely about appearance—think poodles and the Pekingese. But plenty of other breeds, like racing greyhounds, are devoted to specific tasks. For many of these tasks, physical ...

Social behaviour can be pretty complex at the best of times, and defining the underlying genetic events has provided a formidable challenge. In the November 15 Sciencexpress, Michael Krieger and ...

Objective Energy-saving sedentary behaviour may be an evolutionarily selected trait that is no longer advantageous. We investigated the associations between genetic liability to sedentary behaviour ...
