I remember one twin study that found this which was found to have contained falsified data. Don't know if it's one of the ones you mean.
I can do this better in about a week if you'd like to. I have finals right now.

Definitely...I think it's one of the more interesting aspects of psychology.

Guess they forgot to tell Bill Buckley.

My identical twin brother and I were involved in several studies for the Medical College of Virginia, which is affiliated with Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. One study we participated in focused on depression and alcoholism -- we were interviewed every five years over the course of 20 years to see how our lives and experiences had changed.

Fun stuff!

Cool. I'll look them up after finals is done. Should be next week. Month off. Finally. Getting kind of burnt. Just want to enjoy a little of Summer. Not your problem. Just venting. Could be worse.
