One of the most notable findings in contemporary behavior genetics
is that children growing up in the same family are not very
comparable. Findings suggest that in order to understand individual
differences between siblings it is necessary to examine not only
the shared experiences but also the differences in experiences of
children growing up in the same family. In the past decade a group
of investigators has begun to examine the contributions of
genetics, and both shared and nonshared environment to development.
As with many new research endeavors, this has proven to be a
difficult task with much controversy and disagreement not only
about the most appropriate models and methods of analysis to be
used, but also about the interpretation of findings. Written by
some of the foremost scholars working in the area on nonshared
environment, the papers in this book present their perspectives,
concerns, strategies and research findings dealing with the impact
of nonshared environment on individual differences in the
development of siblings. This volume will have heuristic value in
stimulating researchers to think in new ways about the interactions
between heredity, shared and nonshared environment and the
challenges in identifying their contributions to sibling
differences. These papers should raise new questions about how to
examine the contributions of genetic and environmental factors to
development, with consideration given to the findings of this study
of sibling differences and nonshared environment. Further, these
papers may encourage a growing trend to integrate genetic and
environmental perspectives in studies of development.
