Rather, social scientists have most often sought to empirically validate something already observed. Genetics identifies the unobserved. It provides a starting point to identify novel developmental pathways to preferences and behaviors. Understanding differences in the genome can help identify why people who experience the same social environment physically perceive it differently and react to it differently.<\/p>\n<p>It allows for the exploration of individual trajectories. This line of research has only begun, and we are excited to see genetic and other biological methods and approaches further incorporated into the study of political traits. 1.
