In the 1960s, a New York clinical psychiatrist and an adoption agency conducted an experiment. They separated multiple sets of identical twins and one set of identical triplets into different families to test how much of personality is due to genetics or the environment. 

None of the children or families were ever told about this. 

The results of this experiment, and other cases like it, have proved to be fascinating.

Learn more about identical twins and triples that were separated at birth on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
