Key Question. Are physiological responses a . correlate . of the trait in question, or are they a . cause?. Example: Are shy people shy . because. they have certain physiological responses such as an increased heart rate, or are they shy because of some biological system that makes them that way?. Personality. Nature . v. . Nurture. Nature!. “They are born that way!”. Responsible for ~50% of personality. Nurture!. “It’s their experiences & how they were raised!”. Responsible for ~50% of personality. Teaching . Probability and Decision Theory in . Foundations . of Logical . Reasoning. Quantitative Literacy in Philosophy. [. Quantitative literacy] requires logic, data analysis, and probability….It enables individuals to analyze evidence, to read graphs, to understand logical arguments, to detect logical fallacies, to understand evidence, and to evaluate risks. Quantitative literacy means knowing how to reason and how to think. . Task Force. Final Report. 15 September . 2016. Guiding Principle: .

Misunderstandings in MZ twins. “Estimates of heritability of liability to a number of diseases turned out to be quite high. This was a surprise to those not versed in quantitative genetics who tended to think that low concordances rates in MZ twins implied low heritability.” Fraser (1976) . Associate Professor.
