Recent studies in molecular genetics have revealed that the 7R allele of the DRD4 gene has been linked to extraversion and novelty-seeking. Evolutionary psychologists hypothesized that such traits would have been adaptive in exploiting novel environments. Which of the following results was documented that supported this prediction?
A) The 7R allele is more common among nomadic populations than sedentary populations.
