“…Two large twin studies estimated heritabilities of 37-57% for 5 kinds of aggressive behaviors (Yeh, Coccaro, & Jacobson, 2010), and 67% for antisocial behavior (Tuvblad, Narusyte, Grann, Sarnecki, & Lichtenstein, 2011). Work is ongoing to identify genes that may be linked to anti-social behavior, including monoamine oxidase A (MAOA), catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), dopamine transporter (DAT1), dopamine receptor (DRD2 and DRD 4), and serotonin transporter (5-HTTLPR) (Ferguson & Beaver, 2009; Iofrida, Plaumbo, & Pellegrini, 2014), although many of the findings remain a subject of contention (Vassos, Collier, & Fazel, 2014). It seems likely that data regarding genes associated with increased risk for criminal behavior will continue to appear (Tiihonen et al, 2014).…”
