genetic effects

Loehlin (1992) estimated the genetic and environmental components on each of the five dimensions and obtained results typical of other selfreport personality scales. Total genetic effects accounted for approximately 30% to 50% of the variance in all scales, shared environment accounted for no more than 10%, and the greatest variance was attributed to nonshared environmental influences and error. - Heritability of the Big Five Personality Dimensions and Their Facets: A Twin Study
