The field of behavioral genetics is experiencing a revolution following the development of genome-wide association studies and the availability of large datasets from international consortia. This rapid change could increase the existing gaps between basic research, translation, and public understanding of science. In the present work, we aim to synthesize key explanations of how public understanding of socio-scientific issues develop. We propose that integrating dual-process, motivated reasoning, and change management theories will increase the extent to which we understand, and can change, how people respond to findings from behavior genetics.

公众对行为遗传学的理解：整合启发式思维，动机推理和计划的社会变革理论，以制定更好的沟通策略。

随着全基因组关联研究的发展以及国际财团提供的大型数据集的出现，行为遗传学领域正在经历一场革命。这种迅速的变化可能会增加基础研究，翻译和公众对科学的理解之间的现有差距。在当前的工作中，我们旨在对公众对社会科学问题的理解如何发展的主要解释进行综合。我们建议将双重过程，动机推理和变更管理理论进行整合将增加我们对人们对行为遗传学发现的反应的理解和改变程度。
