Such sex differences could arise consequent to exposures to testosterone early in development, or to other effects deriving from the Y chromosome. However, this general subject has been treated with much hyperbole. Historically, sex differences were assumed to be present where they did not really exist, e.g. with respect to mathematics, executive leadership, etc. etc. Under what circumstances do we really care about sex differences in brain and behavior? These circumstances concern human maladies whose diagnoses are much different between boys and girls, or between women and men. Prominent examples discussed in this volume include autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorders and congenital adrenal hyperplasia. In fact, infant boys are more susceptible than infant girls to a variety of disorders that arise early in dev | | 出版日期 | Book 2013 | | 关键词 | attention deficit hyperactivity disorders; autism; chromatin modifications; epigenetics; fetal hormonal | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-33721-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-662-52320-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-33721-5Series ISSN 1861-2253 Series E-ISSN 1863-0685 | | issn_series | 1861-2253 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013 |
