Influence Is Not Identity
Your DNA does not decide your beliefs.
But science can explore small influences.
This report examines genetic associations from population research to estimate behavioral tendencies ? presented with context, limitations, and respect for the many factors that shape who we truly are.

"This report explains influence ? not opinion."
9 Behavioral Dimensions Analyzed
Your report scores each of these tendencies based on genetic research data
Genetics and Human Behavior
Human behavior is shaped by many factors ? genetics is only one small piece.
Our beliefs, values, and political views emerge from a complex interplay of influences: the culture we grow up in, the education we receive, the experiences we have, the people we meet, and the choices we make. These factors shape who we become far more than any genetic marker ever could.
Scientific research has identified some weak statistical associations between certain genetic variants and behavioral tendencies at the population level. But these associations are just that ? statistical patterns observed across large groups, not blueprints for individuals.
Political views are particularly complex and dynamic. They evolve throughout our lives as we learn, grow, and encounter new ideas. No genetic test can capture this richness or predict where your journey of thought will lead.
"Genes suggest possibilities. Life makes choices."
What This Report Explores
These are population-level patterns, not personal labels.
Population Patterns
Genetic associations studied across large research populations ? statistical patterns, not individual predictions.
Behavioral Tendencies
Traits related to openness, preference for structure, and risk tolerance ? never party affiliation or ideology.
Research Context
Findings from peer-reviewed behavioral genetics studies, presented with their limitations clearly stated.
Group Comparisons
How your markers compare to population averages ? context for reflection, not classification.
About Terminology: This report uses broad terms like "Progressive," "Centrist," and "Conservative" to describe estimated orientations ? not party affiliations or specific ideologies. These represent general tendencies observed in research, not fixed identities.
How to Read These Results Responsibly
Understanding what these results mean ? and what they don't.
Associations, Not Causes
These results describe statistical associations observed in research ? correlations between genetic markers and tendencies across populations. Correlation is not causation. Having a genetic marker associated with a tendency does not mean you will have that tendency.
Small Effects, Large Variability
Genetic influences on behavioral tendencies are typically very small ? explaining only a tiny fraction of individual variation. Environmental factors, personal experiences, and individual choice account for far more.
Same Markers, Different Beliefs
Many people with identical genetic markers hold completely different political views. Your genes do not determine your beliefs ? they are one factor among countless others that shape the unique person you are.
Interpret with Humility
This science is young, evolving, and inherently limited. Results should be viewed as one small piece of a much larger puzzle ? interesting for reflection, but never definitive or predictive.
The goal of this report is not to tell you who you are or what you believe. It's to offer a small window into how genetics intersects with human behavior ? while always respecting that you are far more than your DNA.
Why Some People Explore This
Understanding motivation helps set appropriate expectations.
Curiosity About Human Behavior
A genuine interest in understanding the many factors that shape how people think and make decisions.
Biology-Society Intersection
Exploring how biological and social factors interweave in the formation of human attitudes.
Reflection, Not Self-Definition
Using information as a starting point for thought ? not as a label or identity marker.
The Scientific Foundation
This science explores tendencies carefully ? and acknowledges its limits.
Behavioral Genetics
The study of how genetic variation relates to behavioral differences across populations. This field examines statistical patterns, not individual determinism, and has developed rigorous methods over decades.
GWAS Research
Genome-wide association studies examine millions of genetic markers across thousands of individuals to identify statistical associations. These studies reveal patterns, not predictions.
Statistical Correlation
All findings are correlational, not causal. Statistical significance does not mean individual determination. Effect sizes in this domain are typically small.
Acknowledged Limitations
- Most research has been conducted primarily in European-ancestry populations
- Environmental interactions are difficult to fully account for
- Political attitudes are measured imperfectly across cultures
- Gene-environment correlations complicate interpretation
- Results may not generalize across different social contexts
- The science continues to evolve and refine its understanding
"Science advances by acknowledging what it doesn't know. This field is no exception."

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this report predict my political beliefs?
No. This report does not and cannot predict your political beliefs. It explores weak genetic associations observed in population-level research, which describe statistical patterns across groups ? not predictions for individuals. Your beliefs ? are shaped by your life experiences, values, education, and choices.
What kind of orientation does this report provide?
The report provides an estimated orientation using broad terms: Progressive, Centrist, or Conservative. These are not party affiliations or fixed identities ? they represent general tendencies observed in population research. Your actual beliefs are shaped by far more than genetics, and this estimate is just one small piece of understanding human complexity.
How accurate are these genetic associations
The genetic associations we explore are based on peer-reviewed research, but effect sizes are typically very small. This means genetics explains only a tiny fraction of variation in behavioral tendencies. Environmental factors, personal experiences, and individual choice play far larger roles.
How does the scoring system work?
Each of the 9 behavioral dimensions is scored based on your genetic markers compared to research populations. Scores range from "Very Low" through "Weaker Tendency," "Balanced," "High Tendency," to "Extremely Supportive." These scores reflect statistical patterns, not certainties ? many people with similar scores hold very different actual views.
Can people with the same genetic markers have different beliefs?
Absolutely. Many people with identical genetic markers hold completely different political views. This is precisely why we emphasize that genetics is just one small factor among many. Your genes provide possibilities, not determinations.
Why would someone want to explore this?
People explore this report out of genuine curiosity about the intersection of biology and behavior. It's an opportunity for reflection ? not self-definition. If approached with appropriate humility, it can be a thought-provoking addition to understanding human complexity.
Is my data kept private?
Yes. Your genetic data and any insights from this report are kept strictly private. We use enterprise-grade encryption and follow strict privacy protocols. Your political tendencies information is never shared without your explicit consent.
