Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic differences in humans, like those between individuals of any animal or plant species and those between species, are all products of the evolutionary development of the living world. These differences, with their behavioral consequences, can only be understood in the light of evolution. Our understanding of evolution, however, has itself evolved. The Darwin- Wallace theory of evolution appeared in the nineteenth century. Since then, development of evolutionary thought has gone through several stages. The contributions in this volume describe those stages.

Download or read book Methods and Goals in Human Behavior Genetics written by Steven G. Vandenberg and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods and Goals in Human Behavior Genetics examines trends in behavior genetics research and presents a critical review of methodology. This volume was planned to be of interest to two types of readers. First it provides information for psychologists who are interested in the genetics of personality and ability. Second, it is hoped that the volume will be of some value to geneticists who are desirous of knowing about recent attempts by psychologists to study hereditary factors in human behavior. The contributions to this volume are in some cases similar to papers presented during a meeting held in Louisville where this volume was planned, while the comments following these papers are based on tape recordings of the ensuing discussions. The book opens with a discussion of biochemical genetics and gene action. Separate chapters follow in topics such as application of anthropology to genetics, twin studies, heritability of personality traits, and suggestions for human behavior genetics based on animal studies.

Download or read book Human Adult Odontometrics written by Julius A. Kieser and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1990-06-28 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An appreciation of the genetic and environmental determinants of tooth size is fundamental to an understanding of the metric variation of teeth in humans. Thus, besides imparting a sound knowledge of the theories of dental inheritance, development and evolution, this book has an important role in demonstrating the diverse practical applications of odontometrics. A particular feature of the book is the inclusion of numerous tables which bring together a vast body of information on tooth size in different population groups. Students of oral biology, orthodontics, physical anthropology, human biology, forensic science and archaeology will find this work of great value as a text and reference source. As Professor Phillip Tobias writes in the foreword, 'The breadth of Dr Kieser's reading, and his mastery of a staggering array of anthropological, evolutionary, embryological, orthodontic and statistical concepts shine through every page of this work'.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological Distance Analysis: Forensic and Bioarchaeological Perspectives synthesizes research within the realm of biological distance analysis, highlighting current work within the field and discussing future directions. The book is divided into three main sections. The first section clearly outlines datasets and methods within biological distance analysis, beginning with a brief history of the field and how it has progressed to its current state. The second section focuses on approaches using the individual within a forensic context, including ancestry estimation and case studies. The final section concentrates on population-based bioarchaeological approaches, providing key techniques and examples from archaeological samples. The volume also includes an appendix with additional resources available to those interested in biological distance analyses. Defines datasets and how they are used within biodistance analysis Applies methodology to individual and population studies Bridges the sub-fields of forensic anthropology and bioarchaeology Highlights current research and future directions of biological distance analysis Identifies statistical programs and datasets for use in biodistance analysis Contains cases studies and thorough index for those interested in biological distance analyses

This book was released on 2012 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies in rodents and humans have suggested that masculinisation of females and feminisation of males can occur between fetuses in utero due to hormonal diffusion. Opposite-sex twin pairs provide a useful model to study the effects of prenatal hormone diffusion on tooth size. This study aims to determine whether primary and permanent tooth sizes are altered in females and/or males from opposite-sex dizygotic (DZOS) twins compared with same-sex monozygotic (MZ) or dizygotic (DZSS) twins; to assess the sexual dimorphism between males and females from all zygosities; and to quantify the amount and magnitude of dental asymmetries, both directional and fluctuating asymmetries, in the different twin groups. Serial dental models of the primary, mixed and permanent dentitions of 122 males and 135 females, aged from 4 to 16 years of age from DZOS, MZ and DZSS twin pairs, were used. Mesiodistal (MD) and buccolingual (BL) crown dimensions, crown heights (CH) and intercuspal (IC) dimensions of all primary teeth and the permanent central incisors, lower lateral incisors, canines, second premolars, first and second molars were measured to an accuracy of 0.1mm using a 2D image analysis system. Dental crowns of DZOS females were consistently larger by approximately 1-3% in MD and BL dimensions, by 2.7-4.7% in CH dimensions and by 0.5-0.8% in IC dimensions of permanent teeth compared with other female groups. Although the differences were smaller than in the permanent dentition, the primary dentition also showed larger dental crown size in DZOS females by 0.5-2% in MD and BL dimensions, 3% in CH and by 1% in IC dimensions. No systematic trend for altered tooth size was found in either dentition or for any of the crown dimensions between the male twin groups. There was no evidence of systematic directional asymmetry in either dentition in males or females from all the different zygosity groups, whereas fluctuating asymmetry was evident in all groups with the magnitude being smaller for MD and BL dimensions compared with CH and IC dimensions. There was no evidence that the magnitude of fluctuating asymmetry differed significantly between the different zygosity groups. This analysis shows a trend for primary and permanent dental crown size to be larger in DZOS females than in the other female twins. A multivariate analysis of variance confirmed that there were statistically significant differences between the twin zygosity groups, with the CH dimensions showing the greatest effect. No effects were found in DZOS males. The effects on DZOS females may be related to circulating male hormones from the co-twin in utero, supporting the view that variation in tooth size reflects an interplay between genetic, epigenetic and environmental influences during development, with hormonal effects playing a small but significant role.
