• Children's educational progress: partitioning family, school and area effects (2010, background): “Both intuitively and from behavioural genetic (BG) studies of cognitive traits (Plomin et al., 2003; Kovas et al., 2005), which we discuss below, we expect that, if family is included in school effectiveness models, much of the unexplained between-pupil variation will be attributable to differences…”
• Can genetic factors influence the likelihood of engaging in entrepreneurial activity (2009, background): “…to research are complementary because “twins make it possible to use quantitative genetic analyses that can chart the course for molecular genetic analyses” (Plomin et al., 2003: 536).20 19 Education provides information and skills that increase the expected returns to entrepreneurial activity.”

• Darwinism, behavioral genetics, and organizational behavior: A review and agenda for future research. (2006, background): “Besides studying DNA sequences that make humans different from other species, the sequencing of the human genome also makes possible the study of DNA sequences that make us different from one another (Plomin et al., 2003).”
• Nature and Nurture: Genetic and Environmental Influences on Behavior (2005, background): “For example, behavioral researchers can ask how the effects of specific genes unfold in development and how they interact and correlate with experience (Plomin et al. 2003a).”
• Individual Differences in Leadership Emergence: Integrating Meta-Analytic Findings and Behavioral Genetics Estimates (2004, background): “Genetic differences are now thought to account for substantial proportions of between-individual differences in virtually all areas of human behavior, across both normal and abnormal (i.e., behavioral disorders) ranges of behavior (McGue & Bouchard, 1998; Plomin et al., 2003).”
• Genetic influences on measures of the environment: a systematic review (2006, background): “Many important aspects of human behavior are significantly influenced by genetic factors (Plomin et al. 2003; Kendler & Eaves, 2005; Kendler & Prescott, 2006).”
