Hormonal effects on behavior have long been studied in animals; the unique contribution of this book is to suggest a connection between human fetal hormones and later behavior. It details for the first time testosterone's effect on social and language development, opening a new avenue of research for cognitive neuroscience. The authors look at samples of amniotic fluid taken during amniocentesis at 16 weeks' gestation, and relate the fetal level of testosterone (which is present in fetuses of both sexes, although in different quantities) to behavior at ages 1, 2, and 4 years. They argue that the amniotic fluid provides a window into the child's past -- a chemical record of that child's time in the womb -- that allows informed prediction about the child's future brain, mind, and behavior. This is not the retrospective speculation of psychoanalysis, they point out, but an opportunity to study development prospectively and trace developmental precursors and causes of later cognition. The study suggests that prenatal levels of testosterone affect a range of later behaviors in children, from the inclination to make eye contact with others to the size of the vocabulary. It also suggests that prenatal testosterone level may be related to the development of typically "masculine" and "feminine" behaviors. The study's ongoing research explores whether fetal testosterone has any link with the risk of developing autism. Connecting endocrinology and psychology, the authors propose that there is a biological component to behaviors often thought to be produced by the social environment. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Amniotic liquid|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85004565|xAnalysis.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2002006221 650 0 Fetus|xGrowth.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85047971 650 0 Testosterone.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85134159 650 7 Amniotic liquid|xAnalysis.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/807830 650 7 Amniotic liquid.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 807829 650 7 Fetus|xGrowth.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/923451 650 7 Testosterone.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1148285 650 7 Testosterone.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0001362 650 12 Testosterone|xphysiology.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/ D013739Q000502 650 22 Child Development.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D002657 650 22 Embryonic Development.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/ D047108 650 22 Fetal Development.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D047109 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Lutchmaya, Svetlana.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n2003019901 700 1 Knickmeyer, Rebecca.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n2003019902 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBaron-Cohen, Simon.|tPrenatal testosterone in mind.|dCambridge, Mass. : MIT Press, ©2004 |z0262025639|w(DLC) 2003069132|w(OCoLC)53901131 830 0 Bradford Bks. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=122490|zOnline eBook.
