论文摘要

自然(一个人的基因)和培育(一个人的环境)共同有助于整个生命周期的健康和人力资本的形成和演变。可以使用越来越多的社会科学数据集中可用的遗传信息来估算和量化基因与环境之间的这种复杂相互作用。使用遗传数据来提高我们对个人决策,不平等和指导公共政策的理解是可能的和有前途的,但需要在基本遗传学术语,经济学和社会科学遗传学中对文学的了解以及对社会科学和经济学中遗传数据使用的政策含义和前景进行仔细讨论。

Nature (one's genes) and nurture (one's environment) jointly contribute to the formation and evolution of health and human capital over the life cycle. This complex interplay between genes and environment can be estimated and quantified using genetic information readily available in a growing number of social science data sets. Using genetic data to improve our understanding of individual decision making, inequality, and to guide public policy is possible and promising, but requires a grounding in essential genetic terminology, knowledge of the literature in economics and social-science genetics, and a careful discussion of the policy implications and prospects of the use of genetic data in the social sciences and economics.
