Abstract
Mental abilities and inbreeding. The comparison between 1,302 adults born from consanguineous marriages underlines a heavy depression of mental abilities. The load of inbreeding equals the load of environment, both adding their influences, without interaction. Homozygosity acts probably more particularly on the brain.
