Sibling Gene-environment Correlation

Sibling Gene-Environment Correlation is a theoretical construct within behavioral genetics that specifically denotes the phenomenon wherein siblings, by virtue of shared genetic relatedness and partially overlapping environments, exhibit correlated genotypes and environmental exposures due to passive and evocative gene-environment mechanisms, thereby distinguishing it from non-familial or population-level gene-environment correlations.
