Progress on the paternal brain: theory, animal models, human brain research, and mental health implications.
With a secure foundation in basic research across mammalian species in which fathers participate in the raising of young, novel brain-imaging approaches are outlining a set of consistent brain circuits that regulate paternal thoughts and behaviors in humans. The newest experimental paradigms include increasingly realistic baby-stimuli to provoke paternal cognitions and behaviors with coordinate...
متن کاملGene-environment interactions in addictive disorders: epidemiological and methodological aspects.
The gene-environment interactions' approach could explain some epidemiological and clinical factors associated with addictive behaviours. Twin studies first help to disentangle the respective roles of environment and genetic effects, finding convincing evidence for common genetic vulnerability in several addictive behaviours, and helping to delimit what syndrome could belong to the addictive di...

The impact appears to be greatest in South Asia, possibly among low-income families. Some interventions, s...
متن کاملGene–Environment Interactions in Severe Mental Illness
Severe mental illness (SMI) is a broad category that includes schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and severe depression. Both genetic disposition and environmental exposures play important roles in the development of SMI. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that the roles of genetic and environmental factors depend on each other. Gene-environment interactions may underlie the paradox of strong envi...
متن کاملVulnerability or Sensitivity to the Environment? Methodological Issues, Trends, and Recommendations in Gene–Environment Interactions Research in Human Behavior
Research on the potential role of gene-environment interactions (GxE) in explaining vulnerability to psychopathology in humans has witnessed a shift from a diathesis-stress perspective to differential susceptibility approaches. This paper critically reviews methodological issues and trends in this body of research. Databases were screened for studies of GxE in the prediction of personality trai...
