A population-wide gene-environment interaction study on how genes, schools, and residential areas shape achievement
R. Cheesman, N. T. Borgen, et al.
This study by Rosa Cheesman and colleagues uncovers how genes and environments interact to influence academic achievement. Analyzing data from over 23,000 Norwegian families, it reveals that while high-performing schools lift student outcomes across various genetic backgrounds, less impact comes from residential area differences. The findings suggest focusing on in-school support for struggling students to mitigate achievement inequality in Norway.
