Early Environments Shape Neuropeptide Function: The Case of Oxytocin and Vasopressin.
Adi Perry-Paldi,Gilad Hirschberger,Ruth Feldman,Orna Zagoory-Sharon,Shira Buchris Bazak,Tsachi Ein-Dor +5 more
TL;DR: This work shows that early life stress is associated with change in the core function of OT and AVP in evolutionary predictable ways, and demonstrates the plasticity of neuropeptide functioning that mirrors the variance in human social-emotional functioning.

The role of oxytocin in early mother-infant interactions: Variations in maternal affect attunement
TL;DR: Results indicated that overall maternal oxytocin functioning was negatively related to her warm sensitivity, while infant Oxytocin reactivity together with maternal affect attunement were associated with infant positive social engagement with their mothers.

Rebecca T. Emeny,Dorothea Huber,Martin Bidlingmaier,Martin Reincke,Günther Klug,Karl-Heinz Ladwig +5 more

Walter Mischel,Yuichi Shoda +1 more
TL;DR: A theory was proposed to reconcile paradoxical findings on the invariance of personality and the variability of behavior across situations to account for individual differences in predictable patterns of variability across situations.
