Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Scarr's model of gene-environment interactions includes passive, active, and evocative genetic influences. Passive genetic influence occurs when parents provide both genes and environment to their children, active genetic influence happens when individuals seek out environments that complement their genetic tendencies, and evocative genetic influence involves individuals eliciting responses from their environment based on their genetic predispositions.
