Gene-Environment Correlation - an overview - ScienceDirect
Gene–environment correlations (rGE) occur when there are genetically influenced differences in exposure to environmental risk factors. There are three main types of rGE: passive, active, and evocative (Scarr and McCartney, 1983; Plomin et al., 1977).
Externalizing Disorders and Environmental Risk: Mechanisms …
Two mechanisms of gene-environment (G-E) interplay are essential to understand the ways in which environmental influences correlate and interact with genetic risk in the development of externalizing: gene-environment correlation (rGE) and gene x environment (G x E) interaction. rGE refers to the fact that exposure to environmental risk is not ...
Multidimensional Approaches to Understanding Mental Illness
The gene-environment correlation model (rGE) is defined as the tendency of individuals to select and/or generate their environment based on genetic features that influence behavior, thoughts, and feelings [4].
Integrating the study of personality and psychopathology in the …
We provide recommendations for future research to model rGE and better inform our ability to study personality and psychopathology, while separating the influence of the environment.
Gene-environment studies and borderline personality disorder: a review
The best evidence to date supports a gene-environment correlation (rGE) model for borderline personality traits and a range of adverse life events, indicating that those at risk for BPD are also at increased risk for exposure to environments that may trigger BPD.

Gene–environment correlation - Wikipedia
Gene–environment correlation (or genotype–environment correlation) is said to occur when exposure to environmental conditions depends on an individual's genotype. Gene–environment correlations (or rGE) is correlation of two traits, e.g. height and weight, which would mean that when one changes, so does the other.

2019年4月27日 · Indeed, psychology researchers have been actively investigating genetic variation in the environments that individuals experience—a phenomenon termed “gene–environment correlation” (rGE)—since the 1970s. rGE emerges from genetic variation in individuals’ behavior and personality traits, which in turn affects the environments that ...
