I am an identical twin. And trust me when I say we can't communicate by our mind. But when you do spend time with someone for a while, you can sometimes guess what they are thinking. But mostly by the look on there face.

What are the disadvantages of using twins studies?

First off, twins are hard to come by. This is especially true of conditions that are already rare, since they do not often have the chance to conduct a twin study due to the low probability of finding an already rare condition in twins. Twin studies are more likely to be case studies, which limit their scope and generalizability. If the twins were raised together, the assumption that similarity in twins is the result of heredity has to compete with the explanation that some similarity is attributable to a common upbringing and not genes alone.

Can twins read each other's minds?

Probably not. Many twins claim to exhibit ESP-like behavior, including finishing each other’s sentences and feeling phantom pain when the other is hurt. However, there is no conclusive scientific evidence that twins have extrasensory perception. Many psychologists agree that these instances of “twin telepathy” are the result of genetically influenced traits or simple closeness as opposed to something supernatural.One such instance that made news in 2009 involved 15-year-old twin sisters from the UK. One twin, Gemma, claimed that she “had a feeling” about her sister, Leanne, being in danger and went to check on her. She found Leanne submerged in the bathtub after losing consciousness, and her quick response was able to save Leanne’s life. Although this incident sounds pretty supernatural, it can be explained by mere coincidence and the fact that Leanne had suffered from similar “fits” before.


Which research method allows researchers to most easily isolate the effect of both genetics and experience in a specific traits?

Twin studies, especially using identical twins raised in different environments, allow researchers to isolate the effects of genetics and experience on specific traits. By comparing identical twins who share all their genes but differ in their environments, researchers can attribute any differences in traits to genetic factors.
