Partners in Health: Investigating Social Genetic Effects Among Married and Cohabiting Couples
Behav Genet. 2023 Jul;53(4):348-358. doi: 10.1007/s10519-023-10147-w. Epub 2023 Jun 7.ABSTRACTPartners resemble each other in health behaviors and outcomes such as alcohol use, smoking, physical activity, and obesity. While this is consistent with social contagion theory suggesting partner influence, it is notoriously difficult to establish causality because of assortative mating and contextual confounding. We offer a novel approach to studying social contagion in health in long-term partnerships by combining genetic data of both partners in married/cohabiting couples with longitudinal data on their health behaviors and ou...
