The Behavior Genetics
Association promotes research
into the connection between
heredity and
behavior. Its science journal
is titled Behavior Genetics,
"the leading journal concerned
with the genetic analysis of
complex traits."
Founded in
1970, the group's goal is "to
promote scientific study of the
interrelationship of genetic
mechanisms and behavior, both
human and animal; to encourage and
aid the education and training of
research workers in the field of
behavior genetics; and to aid in
the dissemination and
interpretation to the general
public of knowledge concerning the
interrelationship of genetics and
behavior, and its implications for
health and human development and
education."
