Question:

A strength of nature v nuture?

Author: (Pippa) Pippa Holloway



Answer:

-Research support for the influence of nature on humans -Eg: discovery of the parahippocampal gyrus influences OCD as it is used to process negative emtions and seen to function abnoramlly with patients with OCD -COMT gene has been associated with OCD with higher levels of dopamine found within OCD patients showing showing a abnormality within neurotransmitters -Leads to development of treates like the use of SSRI's and other antidrepressants that has been effective in reducing OCD symptons within pateints to allow more serotonin to diffuse across the snypase without being reabsorbed.
