Reading from Sauer-Zavala, Shannon & Barlow, David, H. (2021). Neuroticism: A new framework for emotional disorders and their treatment. New York: The Guilford Press, they quoted Turkheimer: Variance and causation in behavioral development: (1) "Genes are an inextricable component of any developmental system, and thus genes are involved in all traits ” and " all traits are heritable. " (Gottlieb, G. (1992). Individual development and evolution: The genesis of novel behavior. New York: Oxford University Press at p. 147). The nature vs. nurture debate continues but we are gaining a deeper understanding of just how important and foundational genetics and natural selection are in the evolution of our capacity for complex behavior.

1. 11/15/21, In my studies this morning I got to thinking about whether Child Custody Evaluations bring back pre 1970s where "fault" for the divorce was often determinative of custody decisions. To investigate the issue I thought I'd read and record the law beginning with the history of the law on the "best interests of the child" standard using a practice guide I subscribe to -- CEB's Child Custody Litigation: https://www.dropbox.com/s/d68k7or1aas8xrx/1%2C%20Best%20Interests%20of%20Child%2C%20History.mp4?dl=0 2. 11/21/21, In my studies this evening I pick up where I left off last Sunday.

This is a history by Gordon Allport of Social Psychology as of 1968. Click the following Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/83htxcr57a7kk5b/Allport%2C%201968%2C%20History%20of%20Social%20Psychology.mp4?dl=0 (Warning: The reading is 4 and a half hours long) I love reading Allport who was at least 5 decades of ahead of his time.
