How genetics can influence learning

can set the stage for what we learn," said McCarthy. "Yet knowledge of genetic factors related to alcoholism risk is steadily increasing. As it does, it becomes important to understand not just what factors are related to alcohol behavior, but how they affect this behavior. This type of study illustrates that genetic influences are part of a larger biopsychosocial process. People are just beginning to understand the way genes affect us; that they can act by making physiological changes, which in turn might influence psychosocial factors in our lives. This model can be seen as a first step in understanding the mechanisms by which a genetic factor can translate into a disorder such as alcoholism."
