Am Psychol 55:599-612. 2000..It appears that although low-IQ parents have been making large families, large families do not make low-IQ children in modern U.S. society.

Int J Androl 29:46-53. 2006..Moreover, genetic variance can change over short periods of time or across educational levels, specifically for females, and the relevance of genetic variance seems to increase during times of increasing reproductive choice... - Testing descriptive hypotheses regarding sex differences in the development of conduct problems and delinquencyBenjamin B Lahey
