8Mechanistic understanding of individual outcomes: Challenges and alternatives to genetic designsBehavioral and Brain Sciences 46. 2023.I argue that advancing “second-generation” or mechanistic causal knowledge of individual outcomes requires a comprehensive research programme that uses a variety of different methods in addition to the ones described in the paper under discussion. I also highlight that environment-focused approaches can be as instrumental in identifying potential phenotypic causes as gene-focused approaches.
