Question 1
In Gottlieb's developmental systems model, the influences of genetic and neural activity are __________.
◦ deterministic of behavior
◦ part of the species-typical rearing environment
◦ bidirectional
◦ indistinguishable
Question 2
In the study by Caspi et al. (2003) discussed in the text, genetic testing of males who were followed from childhood into adulthood revealed that individuals with a genetic vulnerability in the serotonin transporter gene (the s/s genotype) were __________.
◦ more likely than individuals without such a vulnerability (the l/l genotype) to be depressed as adults, regardless of the level of maltreatment in childhood
◦ more likely than individuals without such a vulnerability (the l/l genotype) to be depressed as adults, but only when child maltreatment was likely to have occurred
◦ equally likely to be depressed in adulthood as individuals without such a vulnerability (the l/l genotype) when both had a history of severe maltreatment
◦ depressed from childhood through adulthood
