Genetic and environmental influences on skin pattern deterioration.
Sun exposure has been known to cause histological changes in the dermal layer of the skin. Using deterioration in the fine reticular patterning of the epidermal stratum corneum (skin pattern, as measured on the Beagley-Gibson scale) as a proxy measure of histological changes in the dermal layer, previous studies have typically assumed that degradation of skin pattern is largely caused by sun ex...
متن کاملGenetic influences on 'environmental' factors.
Childhood environment, social environment and behavior, leisure time activities and life events have been hypothesized to contribute to individual differences in cognitive abilities and physical and emotional well-being. These factors are often labeled 'environmental', suggesting they shape but not reflect individual differences in behavior. The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that ...

review the literature on handedness, dichotic listening and anatomical asymmetry in schizophrenia and concluded that there was strong evidence for decreased cerebral lateralisation. As they point out, the implication is that finding the locus of the gene for cerebral dominance could unravel the genetic predisposition to schizophrenia. Procopio (2001) raises a number of points relevant to the fi...
متن کاملRunning head: GENETIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES Genetic and Environmental Influences on Prosocial Behavior
The obvious importance to human social functioning of prosocial behavior (behavior intended to benefit others) has led to extensive research on the sources of individual differences in prosociality, empathy, helping, cooperation, and altruism. At the species level, this markedly human trait has been explained in genetic terms. At the individual level, however, only about a dozen studies have di...
متن کاملGenetic and environmental influences on infant sleep.
BACKGROUND Sleep duration is attracting increasing attention in relation to chronic disease risk, but few large-scale studies have investigated the determinants of sleep characteristics in early life. In this study we used data from a large, population-based twin study to examine genetic and environmental influences on sleep duration and sleep difficulties in infancy. METHODS Participants wer...
