Even aspects of behavior that one would feel certain are environmentally controlled are now being attributed in part to the effects of the genes. But genes never act alone: Their effects are always filtered through the environment. The goal of this volume is to discuss how the environment influences the development and the maintenance of cognitive abilities. It is a successor to IntellectNature and nurtureEnvironmental psychologyElectronic books.Intellect.Nature and nurture.Environmental psychology.155.91Sternberg Robert J62274Grigorenko Elena L914698MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910449942403321Environmental effects on cognitive abilities2255174UNINA
