The Biological Implausibility of the Nature-Nurture Dichotomy & What It Means for the Study of Infancy (2011, background): “As a result, linking biology with behavioral abilities provides a gateway to not only understanding the evolution of behavior but to the relationship between evolution and development (Bjorklund, 2006).”
Nongenetic Inheritance and Its Evolutionary Implications (2009, background): “Maternal and paternal behavior can influence offspring brain development and behavior in many other ways (Bjorklund 2006, Harper 2005).”
Play in evolution and development (2007, background): “More recently epigenetic theory has been advanced to formalize the ways in which genes and the environment aVect each other, suggesting that immature organisms, especially, are responsive to environmental perturbations and adjust their behaviors in response to these changes ( Bjorklund, 2006; Gottl”
Biosocial Construction of Sex Differences and Similarities in Behavior (2012, unknown): “Nonetheless, animal studies that manipulate qualities of maternal socialization through, for example, exposing mothers to stress, have revealed shared offspring experiences consistent with such socialization (see Bjorklund, 2006).”
