A standardized protocol for efficient and reliable quality control of brain registration in functional MRI studies
Automatic alignment of brain anatomy in a standard space is a key step when processing magnetic resonance imaging for group analyses. Such brain registration is prone to failure, and the results are therefore typically reviewed visually to ensure quality. There is however no standard, validated protocol available to perform this visual quality control. We propose here a standardized QC protocol for brain registration, with minimal training overhe…
The Relationship between Social Defiance, Vindictiveness, Anger, and Brain Morphology in Eight‐year‐old Boys and Girls
The goal of this study is twofold: (1) to assess brain anatomical differences between children meeting diagnostic criteria for oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and healthy controls, and (2) to investigate whether morphological brain characteristics associated with ODD differ in boys and girls. Eight‐year‐old participants (N = 38) were scanned using magnetic resonance imaging. ODD symptoms were assessed using the Dominic‐R interactive. In ODD p…
Neuroanatomy of childhood disruptive behavior disorders
Our aims were to (1) examine possible neuroanatomical abnormalities associated with the Disruptive Behavior Disorders (DBDs) as a group and (2) assess neuroanatomical anomalies specific to each DBD (i.e., conduct disorder [CD] and oppositional defiant disorder). Cortical thickness analysis and voxel-based morphometry were analyzed in 47 8-year-old boys (22 DBDs with and without CD and/or ODD and 25 healthy controls) from Magnetic Resonance Imagin…
Relations between Theory of Mind and Indirect and Physical Aggression in Kindergarten: Evidence of the Moderating Role of Prosocial Behaviors
The present study examined the association between theory of mind and indirect versus physical aggression, as well as the potential moderating role of prosocial behavior in this context. Participants were 399 twins and singletons drawn from two longitudinal studies in Canada. At five years of age, children completed a theory of mind task and a receptive vocabulary task. A year later, teachers evaluated children's indirect and physical aggression …
Dominance among unfamiliar peers starts in infancy
Dominance has been conceived for a long time in terms of asymmetry in agonistic conflicts. But this conception has shown its limits in the complexity of children's social worlds. Today, dominance is rather conceived in terms of asymmetry in resource control within children's dyads. Some observational studies have been done in this context, but only on small groups of familiar children and often up to 3 years of age. Our aim was to reveal whether …
The evolution of problem and social competence behaviors during toddlerhood: A prospective population‐based cohort survey
Research in developmental psychopathology has long been preoccupied with rather broad categories of behavior, but we know little about the specific behaviors that comprise these categories. The objective of this study was to: (a) estimate the prevalence of problem and social competence behaviors in the general population of children at 17 months of age, and (b) describe the continuity and discontinuity in the degree to which children exhibit thes…
Gender differences in physical aggression: A prospective population-based survey of children before and after 2 years of age
There has been much controversy over the past decades on the origins of gender differences in children's aggressive behavior. A widely held view is that gender differences emerge sometime after 2 years of age and increase in magnitude thereafter because of gender-differentiated socialization practices. The objective of this study was to test for (a) gender differences in the prevalence of physical aggression in the general population of 17-month-…
Do Friendships and Sibling Relationships Provide Protection against Peer Victimization in a Similar Way
Based on the notion that friendship may serve an important protective function against peer victimization, this study examined the moderating effect of reciprocal friends' prosociality on the link between a child's reactive aggression and victimization. The study also investigated whether a similar moderating effect could be found with respect to sibling's prosociality, given that sibling relationships have been found to provide social benefits c…
Examining genetic and environmental effects on reactive versus proactive aggression
This study compared the contribution of genes and environment to teacher-rated reactive and proactive aggression in 6-year-old twin pairs (172 pairs: 55 monozygotic girls, 48 monozygotic boys, 33 dizygotic girls, 36 dizygotic boys). Genetic effects accounted for 39% of the variance of reactive aggression and for 41% of the variance of proactive aggression. The remainder of the variance was explained by unique environmental effects. Genetic as wel…
Physical Aggression During Early Childhood: Trajectories and Predictors
Objectives. Physical aggression in children is a major public health problem. Not only is childhood physical aggression a precursor of the physical and mental health problems that will be visited on victims, but also aggressive children themselves are at higher risk of alcohol and drug abuse, accidents, violent crimes, depression, suicide attempts, spouse abuse, and neglectful and abusive parenting. Furthermore, violence commonly results in serio…
Physical aggression and expressive vocabulary in 19-month-old twins
Anthropologie et sociobiologie: Les Fondements d'Une Possible Intégration
Anthropologie et Sociobiologie : Les fondements d'une possible intégration Dans cet article, nous comparons les épistémologies respectives de la sociobiologie et de l'anthropologie afin de situer leurs points d'articulation et d'établir les fondements de leur éventuelle intégration. Ces deux perspectives nous paraissent se rejoindre en ce qu'elles supposent toutes deux l'existence d'une unicité psychique humaine organisant la variabilité culturel…
Succès social et succès reproductif dans les sociétés modernes: Une Analyse Sociobiologique
Succès social et succès reproductif dans les sociétés modernes : une analyse sociobiologique Dans cet article, nous présentons l'hypothèse sociobiologique voulant qu'il existe une relation positive entre le succès social et le succès reproductif chez les individus. Cette question se révèle particulièrement significative en ce qu'elle récapitule le rapport entre le comportement culturel et ses déterminants évolutifs. Nous proposons un modèle théor…
Infant visual habituation and parental psychological distress
Research is equivocal concerning the relationship between parental psychological distress and infant cognitive functioning. Four potential limitations of the literature are addressed: reliance on mothers' but not fathers' psychological distress, use of categorical measures of psychological distress, use of standardized measures of infant cognitive functioning, and failure to take into account potential gender differences. Ninety‐nine twin pairs a…
The search for the age of ‘onset’ of physical aggression: Rousseau and Bandura revisited
Sexual Selection, Physical Attractiveness, and Facial Neoteny: Cross-cultural Evidence and Implications [and Comments and Reply]
Physical attractiveness and its relation to the theory of sexual selection deserve renewed attention from cultural and biological anthropologists. This paper focuses on an anomaly associated with physical attractiveness-in our species, in contrast to many others, males seem to be more concerned than females with the attractiveness of potential sexual partners, perhaps because humans show far more age-related variance in female than in male fecund…
Mate choice in modern societies: Testing evolutionary hypotheses with behavioral data
Cultural and reproductive success in industrial societies: Testing the relationship at the proximate and ultimate levels
In most social species, position in the male social hierarchy and reproductive success are positively correlated; in humans, however, this relationship is less clear, with studies of traditional societies yielding mixed results. In the most economically advanced human populations, the adaptiveness of status vanishes altogether; social status and fertility are uncorrelated. These findings have been interpreted to suggest that evolutionary principl…
