also looked at schizophrenics whose father had an identical twin. He found that there was a 17% of being schizophrenic when the father was but he also found that there was also 17% chance of developing the disease when the father’s twin had schizophrenia but the father didn’t. MZ twins share 100% of their genes; DZ twins share 50% of their genes. If genes are a factor we would expect more identical twins to share the disorder than non-identical.

aggression The use of twin studies helps explain how there could be genetic factors in aggressive behavior. There are two types of Twin‚ monozygotic (identical) and Dizygotic (non-identical). If both types are studied in terms of aggression and the M-Z twins are more similar in aggressive behaviour it would suggest there is a genetic influence on aggression. Coccaro et al found that when comparing MZ and DZ twins‚ over 50 % of variance in aggressive behaviours between MZ twins could be attributed to

human behavior. Why? Because they assume that since monozygotic twins share 100% of their genes‚ and the dizygotic share 50% of their genes‚ they must have the same behavior. Like the Minnesota twin study that was done in 1990 by Bouchard. Where the twins lived apart from each other all their life‚ and they still had so much in common. The twins were tracked down‚ and at the end of the research they came up with the conclusion that the twins shared the same personality‚ as well as occupational interests

What does twin behavior tell us about the causes of criminal behavior? Some think that because twins are identical‚ then they should have identical actions and thoughts‚ and be quite similar in their antisocial behaviors and doings. The identical twins (Monozygotic) twins are much more alike in their actions than the fraternal (DZ) twins. Antisocial behavior is 50 percent inheritable and some studies show that the genes on deviant behavior may be up to 85 percent inheritable. Twins that are identical
