They have also known for a long time that those brought up in abusive environments often turn out to be abusive themselves. The second of these observations is usually put down to learning. The reason for the first has remained unclear. A study just published by Axel Meyer, Thomas Elbert and their colleagues at the University of Konstanz in Germany, however, points to a phenomenon called epigenetics as the likely answer. And if Meyer and Elbert are right, it also suggests an alternative explanation for the inheritance of abusiveness. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
