Drs. Snyder, Waldman, Plomin, and Haden all conduct twin-design Behavioral Genetics studies of IQ. Drs. Snyder and Waldman's datasets are of young children; Drs. Plomin and Haden's datasets are of older adults. Further, Drs. Waldman and Plomin's datasets were collected in poorer neighborhoods. Drs. Snyder and Haden's datasets were collected in wealthier neighborhoods. Which of the following is MOST likely to happen? A. Compared to her colleagues, Dr. Plomin will likely conclude that the genetic contributions to IQ is highest. B. Compared to her colleagues, Dr. Plomin will likely conclude that the environmental contributions to IQ is highest. C. Compared to her colleagues, Dr. Haden will likely conclude that the environmental contributions to IQ is highest. D. Compared to her colleagues, Dr. Haden will likely conclude that the genetic contributions to IQ is highest.
