To the best of my knowledge there is not a single genetically mandated voluntary behavior.

Maybe not "mandated," but AFAIK every measurable psychological trait has SOME heritable basis (IOW part nature, part nurture.)

I know of no such study. Almost all behavior is entirely nurture. Certainly all voluntary behavior is nurture.

Unless perhaps you know of a reputable peer reviewed study that establishes a genetic link to voluntary behavior?
