Fraternal twins, or dizygotic twins, share about 50% of their genetic material, which can influence traits such as neuroticism. Research suggests that while they may exhibit some similarities in neuroticism due to shared genetics and environmental factors, they are generally less similar in this trait compared to identical twins. Environmental influences, individual experiences, and personal temperament also play significant roles in shaping neuroticism, leading to greater variability between fraternal twins. Overall, while there may be some correlation, it is not as strong as that observed in identical twins.
Identical twins are much more similar in both extraversion and neuroticism compared to fraternal twins. This suggests a higher genetic contribution to these traits in identical twins due to their identical genetic makeup, whereas fraternal twins share only about 50% of their genetic material on average.
