[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 277233, member: 43589"] Did you guys read the full study? Here is the conclusion: [INDENT][B]Conclusions[/B][/INDENT] [INDENT]Biological influences are not the only pathway leading to individual differences in personality dimensions, behavior, and psychopathology. Complex traits are most likely generated by a complete interaction of environmental and experiential factors with a number of biological factors, among which testosterone and serotonin play a major role. Recent genetic studies on5-HT receptors, transporters, and modifying enzymes have shown that although these substances have only a modest impact, they affect many developmental processes throughout ontogeny as well as compensatory mechanisms.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]The therapeutic application of these findings includes the use of agents that increase[/INDENT] [INDENT]5-HT, either by facilitating its release such as fenfluramine or by blocking its reuptake by the various selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors [39].Chemical castration by antiandrogenic agents, although inefficient for treating general aggression, is used for the treatment of paraphilic sex offenders[40].[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]It is becoming increasingly evident that many neurotransmitters and hormones are expressed at early periods of neural development and it is likely that it is likely that they participate in the structural organization of the nervous system.
