我们家多少代都是老师,所以在院校混的比较多。我们注意到一个情况,大学老师的小孩并不是成绩都很好,即使父母都是知名学者也不例外。但是我们也注意到,如果父母是大学老师,并且祖父母教育程度也不低的话,小孩子功课好的比例比较高。
应该是不仅仅取决于遗传因素,而且取决于环境、社会等因素。你这个样本太少了,缺的条件太多,根本不足以支撑你的结论。人类繁衍进化也是越聪明的生存能力越强的越容易繁衍下来,这个和基因有直接的关系,如果你是一个科学工作者,那你的结论肯定不严谨。
那么他的想法的成功机会也许真的很大。记得书里提到似乎一开头老罗打算用MENSA测试给顾客划线,但是后来放弃了这个门槛。
完全赞同您说的家庭环境的决定性影响。以及,傻人有傻福的说法。
呵呵,虎妈弄不好能把多伦培养成未来的诺奖得主。
如果诺奖得主的精子可以生出诺奖得主二号,那么诺奖得主也是精子生出来的。他爹妈岂非也是诺奖得主了。况且按照基因逐步退化理论,诺奖得主他爹妈是诺奖得主的几率应该更大。那么现实情况如何?
父母设计的,还是遵循已有的路子比较可能。
我估摸着,每个诺奖的故事都不相同吧?如果能被一个俗气的老娘们设计出路线图来,那诺奖就真不值那么些钱了——说严重点,对人类文明是个侮辱呀。
再说就算一切设计完美,还有个机遇的问题。
有个基因,就是利用母乳里一个什么营养,生成一个对婴儿脑发育很有好处的物质,这个有人研究过。可以想见,如果有这个基因的话,吃奶时间长,对早期的脑发育是有好处的。

Abstract
Children's intellectual development is influenced by both genetic inheritance and environmental experiences. Breastfeeding is one of the earliest such postnatal experiences. Breastfed children attain higher IQ scores than children not fed breast milk, presumably because of the fatty acids uniquely available in breast milk. Here we show that the association between breastfeeding and IQ is moderated by a genetic variant in FADS2, a gene involved in the genetic control of fatty acid pathways. We confirmed this gene-environment interaction in two birth cohorts, and we ruled out alternative explanations of the finding involving gene-exposure correlation, intrauterine growth, social class, and maternal cognitive ability, as well as maternal genotype effects on breastfeeding and breast milk. The finding shows that environmental exposures can be used to uncover novel candidate genes in complex phenotypes. It also shows that genes may work via the environment to shape the IQ, helping to close the nature versus nurture debate.
