Journal ArticleDOI
Working memory training revisited: A multi-level meta-analysis of n-back training studies
TL;DR: It is concluded that a substantial part of transfer following WM training with the n-back task is task-specific and the implications of the results to WM training research are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol and aggressive behavior in men–moderating effects of oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR) polymorphisms
Ada Johansson,Hannah Bergman,Jukka Corander,Irwin D. Waldman,Nadja Karrani,Benny Salo,Patrick Jern,Monica Ålgars,Kenneth Sandnabba,Pekka Santtila,Lars Westberg +10 more
TL;DR: This is the first experimental study suggesting interactive effects of specific genetic variants and alcohol on aggressive behavior in humans and the interactive effects between alcohol and two of the OXTR polymorphisms were nominally significant and remained significant when controlled for multiple tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for Heritability of Adult Men's Sexual Interest in Youth under Age 16 from a Population‐Based Extended Twin Design
TL;DR: The present study provides the first indication that genetic influences may play a role in shaping sexual interest toward children and adolescents among adult men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Associations between oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR) polymorphisms and self-reported aggressive behavior and anger: Interactions with alcohol consumption
TL;DR: It appears that the region of the OXTR gene including both the rs4564970 and the rs1488467 polymorphisms may be involved in the regulation of the relationship between alcohol and aggressive behavior as well as betweencohol and the propensity to react to situations with elevated levels of anger.
Journal ArticleDOI
Women's and men's sexual preferences and activities with respect to the partner's age: evidence for female choice
Jan Antfolk,Benny Salo,Katarina Alanko,Emilia Bergen,Jukka Corander,N. Kenneth Sandnabba,Pekka Santtila +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate sex differences in sexual interest and sexual activity as a function of both the respondents' and the objects' age, and conclude that women show larger developmental plasticity than men with regard to the desired object's age and that men's heterosexual activity likely is constrained by female choice.
