has gloss | eng: Hereditarianism is the doctrine or school of thought that heredity plays a significant role in determining human nature and character traits, such as intelligence and personality.

Hereditarians adopt the view that an understanding of human evolution can extend the understanding of human nature. They have explicitly abandoned the standard social science model. |

has gloss | ces: Hereditarismus je psychologická teorie tvrdící, že na rozdíly (zejména v kognitivních schopnostech) mezi lidmi nebo mezi lidskými skupinami má zásadní vliv dědičnost. V extrémní podobě je hereditarismus vlastně ekvivalentní genetickému determinismu – vše závisí na genech. Opakem je sociální determinismus tvrdící, že všechny rozdíly mezi lidmi jsou beze zbytku určeny prostředím. |
