欧美口爆视频 Adoption Project

The purpose of the CAP is to study both nature and nurture, to determine the genetic predispositions as well as the environmental influences that contribute to traits such as intelligence, personality, and behavior. In order to do this a wide range of interviews are conducted with participating families. These include in-person and telephone interviews that measure cognition, social attitudes, and behavioral choices.
