The nature of this environmental influence, however, is such that it tends to make individuals in the same family more different from one another, not more similar to one another. Marketplace prices Summary. This timely journal disseminates the most current original research on the inheritance and evolution of behavioral characteristics in humans and other species. The field has since grown and diversified, touching many scientific disciplines. She has had a particular focus on genotype-environment correlation and how individuals shape their own environments, especially within the Behavioral Genetics 6th edition.

    BioSocieties https://doi.org/10.1057/s41292-019-00167-3 COMMENTARY Mind the gap: toward an integrative science of the brain and crime Eyal Aharoni1 · Nathaniel E. Anderson2 · J. C. Barnes3 · Corey H. Allen4 · Kent A. Kiehl2 © Springer Nature Limited 2019 In the recent article, Criminalizing the brain: Neurocriminology and the production of strategic ignorance, Fallin et al. (2018) argue that most neuroscientists working with antisocial populations are guilty of suppressing, obfuscating, and erasing legiti- mate social explanations for criminal behavior as part of a strategic attempt to tout their reductionist preconceptions of behavior and to advance their own professional, extra-scientifc agendas. While we applaud their call for greater inclusion of social/ contextual factors into neurocriminological research, we fnd that they overstate the case against neurocriminology and understate important eforts by this emerg- ing community to generate signifcant and cross-disciplinary contributions to the understanding of antisocial behavior. Learning to identify and avoid such mischar- acterizations is critical for the pursuit of much-needed interdisciplinary research and collaboration on the prediction, explanation, and remediation of antisocial behavior. By critically evaluating Fallin et al.’s claims, we hope to strike a conciliatory bal- ance, which is more likely to promote integration rather than antagonism between disciplines. Fallin and colleagues correctly describe biosocial criminology as an emerging discipline that integrates historically neglected biological factors and neuroscientifc methods in the study of antisocial behavior. Indeed, this paradigm has demonstrated the value of genetics (Brunner et al. 1993), physiology (Latvala et al. 2015), bio- chemistry (Coccaro et al. 1998), and neuroimaging (Anderson and Kiehl 2012) for * Eyal Aharoni [email protected] 1 Department of Psychology, Georgia State University, P.O.

    Evolution and Executive Functions: Why Our Toolboxes Are Empty

    Revista Española de Neuropsicología 4, 4:351-377 (2002) Copyright© 2002 de REN ISSN: 1139-9872 Evolution and executive functions: Why our toolboxes are empty Roy Sugarman PhD Royal Adelaide Hospital: Glenside Campus Dept of Psychiatry, Adelaide University Abstract: Despite the recent findings with regard to our origins as human primates, we still struggle to find tools that evaluate executive functioning adequately and reliably. Despite some evidence of ecological validity, our toolboxes remain largely empty. With regard to how we produce common behaviours by using individually distinct, multiple areas of focus, each brain is individual. In a sense, not many complex, human, behaviours follow a normal distribution. This work traces the probable origins of executive functioning in humans in a social context, defining in passing the nature of human self-regulation. A discussion follows which integrates these ideas within a second order, cybernetic neuroepistemology of human thought and emotion, and questions the logical paradox of assuming that isolated cortical areas such as the frontal lobes generate executive functions in a linear progression. A brief exploration follows with regard to the nature of human consciousness, and the difficulties in measuring such a homeostatic mechanism as executive function. Using alcohol related brain changes, and cross-cultural issues as exemplars, an attempt is made to define a neuroepistemology for understanding the dynamic interplay between executive function and consciousness. Key words: Brain´s Evolution, executive functioning. Evolución y funciones ejecutivas: por qué nuestras cajas de herramientas estan vacías Resumen: A pesar de los recientes hallazgos en relación a nuestros orígenes como humanos primates, aún luchamos para encontrar instrumentos que evalúen el funcionamiento ejecutivo adecuadamente y de manera fiable.

(ENTIRE BOOK) An excellent and readable summary of the role of religion in an age of science. Barbour's Gifford Lectures -- the expression of a lifetime of scholarship and deep personal conviction and insight -- including a clear and helpful analysis of process theology. Preface What is the place of religion in an age of science? How can one believe in God today? What view of God is consistent with the scientific understanding of the world? My goals are to explore the place of religion in an age of science and to present an interpretation of Christianity that is responsive to both the historical tradition and contemporary science. Part 1: Religion and the Methods of Science Chapter 1: Ways of Relating Science and Religion A broad description of contemporary views of the relationship between the methods of science and those of religion: Conflict, Independence, Dialogue, and Integration. Chapter 2: Models and Paradigms This chapter examines some parallels between the methods of science and those of religion: the interaction of data and theory (or experience and interpretation); the historical character of the interpretive community; the use of models; and the influence of paradigms or programs.

    THE NEUROSCIENTIFIC STUDY OF RELIGIOUS AND SPIRITUAL PHENOMENA: OR WHY GOD DOESN’T USE BIOSTATISTICS by Andrew B. Newberg and Bruce Y. Lee Abstract. With the rapidly expanding field of neuroscience re- search exploring religious and spiritual phenomena, there have been many perspectives as to the validity, importance, relevance, and need for such research. In this essay we review the studies that have con- tributed to our current understanding of the neuropsychology of re- ligious phenomena. We focus on methodological issues to determine which areas have been weaknesses and strengths in the current stud- ies. This area of research also poses important theological and episte- mological questions that require careful consideration if both the religious and scientific elements are to be appropriately respected. The best way to evaluate this field is to determine the methodologi- cal issues that currently affect the field and explore how best to ad- dress such issues so that future investigations can be as robust as possible and can become more mainstream in both the religious and the scientific arenas. Keywords: health; methodology; religion; spirituality. With the rapidly expanding field of research exploring religious and spiri- tual phenomena, there have been many perspectives as to the validity, im- portance, relevance, and need for such research.

    Neuroimaging Abnormalities in Neurological Patients with Criminal Behavior

    Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports (2018) 18:47 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11910-018-0853-3 BEHAVIOR (H S KIRSHNER, SECTION EDITOR) Neuroimaging Abnormalities in Neurological Patients with Criminal Behavior R. Ryan Darby1 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Purpose of Review Criminal behavior occurs in previously law-abiding neurological patients, including patients with traumatic brain injury, focal brain lesions, and dementia. Neuroimaging abnormalities in these patients allow one to explore the potential neuroanatomical correlates of criminal behavior. However, this process has been challenging because (1) It is difficult to determine the temporal relationship between criminal behavior and neurological disease onset; (2) Abnormalities in several different brain regions have been associated with criminal behavior; and (3) It is difficult to quantify neuroimaging abnormalities in individual subjects. Recent Findings Recent studies have begun to address these concerns, showing that neuroimaging abnormalities in patients with criminal behavior localize to a common brain network, rather than a single specific brain region. New methods have been developed to identify atrophy patterns in individual patients, but have not yet been used in neurological patients with criminal behavior. Summary Future advances will be important for making sure that neuroimaging data is used in a responsible manner in legal cases involving criminal behavior. Keywords Criminal . Moral .
