Nature versus nurture in childhood obesity: a familiar old conundrum.
Childhood obesity is an emerging pandemic of the new millennium, and thus we urgently need to understand its causal web.

Despite these advances, we have yet to uncover the complex dynamics of energ...
متن کاملNeural specializations for speech and pitch: moving beyond the dichotomies.
The idea that speech processing relies on unique, encapsulated, domain-specific mechanisms has been around for some time. Another well-known idea, often espoused as being in opposition to the first proposal, is that processing of speech sounds entails general-purpose neural mechanisms sensitive to the acoustic features that are present in speech. Here, we suggest that these dichotomous views ne...

In response to Anastasi's (1958) long-standing challenge, the authors propose an empirically testable theoretical model that (a) goes beyond and qualifies the established behavioral genetics paradigm by allowing for nonadditive synergistic effects, direct measures of the environment, and mechanisms of organism-environment interaction, called proximal processes, through which genotypes are trans...
متن کاملLetters on Nature and Nurture
Humans and most other animals have a dual origin. One of these origins is defined by the genetic background that assembles brains, thereby implanting prewired expectations about the sensory and causal regularities of the world in which we are born. The second origin is the organized system of experiences that provides a plethora of feedback and instructions that slowly shape the brain into its ...
