“…Quantitative and behavioral geneticists are interested in the magnitudes and mechanisms underlying partner correlations because both can affect genetic and environmental parameters and estimates of interest, informing how model estimates should be interpreted 1–4 . Sociologists, anthropologists, economists, and other social scientists have studied partner correlations to gain insight into trends in societal values 5 and the labor market 6,7 , socioeconomic inequalities 5–7 , and relationship satisfaction and divorce rates 8–13 . Research on shared disease/disorder risk factors and health-related behaviors could have public health implication with respect to screening and intervention practices 14–17 .…”

Assortative mating (AM) occurs when the correlation for a trait between mates is larger than would be expected by chance. AM can increase the genetic and environmental variation of traits, can increase the prevalence of disorders in a population, and can bias estimates in genetically informed designs. In this study, we conducted the largest set of meta-analyses on human AM published to date. Across 22 traits, meta-analyzed correlations ranged from r = .08 to r = .58, with social attitude, substance use, and cognitive traits showing the highest correlations and personality, disorder, and biometrical traits generally yielding smaller but still positive and nominally significant (p < .05) correlations. We observed high between-study heterogeneity for most traits, which could have been the result of phenotypic measurement differences between samples and/or differences in the degree of AM across time or cultures.

Information on lead redistribution and speciation changes in anthrosphere can help to analyze the whole lead cycle on the earth. Lead life cycle was traced based on the concepts of anthropogenic transfer and transformation. Lead transfer and the distribution of chemical species throughout the anthropogenic flow were identified in 2010 in China. The results show that 1.85 Mt lead ore was consumed (besides 1.287 Mt imported concentrated ore and 1.39 Mt lead scraps. After undergoing transformations, 3.53 Mt lead entered end services in chemical species of Pb, PbO 2 and PbSO 4 , altogether accounting for over 80% of the total lead products. Finally, 2.10 Mt ore was emitted into the environment in such species as PbSO 4 (26%), PbO (19%) and Pb (15%). Lead transfer begins in primary raw material sectors, and then transfers to manufacturing sectors. Lead provides services mainly in such industrial sectors as transportation, electrical power and buildings or construction.
