[영문]Objectives. This article examines how genetic and environmental interactions associated with health inequalities are constructed and framed in the presentation of scientific research. Methods. It uses the example of a major article about depression in a longitudinal study of young adults that appeared in Science in 2003. Results. This portrayal of findings related to health inequalities uses a genetic lens that privileges genetic influences and diminishes environmental ones. Discussion. The emphasis on the genetic side of Gene x Environment interactions can serve to deflect attention away from the important impact of social inequalities on health.
