Research Article

  • Androgen effects on women's gendered behaviour

  • J. Richard Udry, Naomi M. Morris, Judith Kovenock
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    31 July 2008, pp. 359-368

  • Test of the applicability of the hormonal theory of sex-dimorphic behaviour to adult women is achieved in this study by assembling measures of prenatal and adult androgen exposure, and a broad measure of gendered behaviour on a sample of white women aged 27–30. Androgen exposure in the second (and no other) trimester of fetal life, combined with and in interaction with adult androgens, masculinises women's behaviour and explains a substantial proportion of the within-sex variance in women's adult gendered behaviour.

Short Report

  • A Triplet Maternity in a Reduced Population with Excessive Twinning

  • John W. Sheets
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    31 July 2008, pp. 117-120

  • In 1991 a triplet maternity of same-sex (FFF) occurred in a depopulated community of Argyll, Scotland, with a history of excessive, same-sex twinning. Due to a stillbirth and its confidentiality, the maternity was recorded as a twin birth. Using public registers may result in underestimation of rates for higher multiple conceptions and births in local districts.
