Life-history traits and strategies tend not to be genetically fixed; they evolve to show developmental plasticity.
“LH traits and strategies tend not to be genetically fixed, but rather evolve to show developmental plasticity”
From The Adaptive Calibration Model of stress responsivity (2011) · cites this paper as Ellis et al., 2006
The stress response system is a general interface with the environment, mediating adjustment to both positive and negative events.
“the SRS is a general interface with the environment, mediating the organism’s adjustment to both positive and negative events”
From The Adaptive Calibration Model of stress responsivity (2011) · cites this paper as Ellis et al., 2006
The stress response system comprises three anatomically distinct neuroendocrine circuits-sympathetic, parasympathetic, and HPA-whose activity is integrated and cross-regulated as a single functional system.
“The SRS comprises three anatomically distinct neuroendocrine circuits: the sympathetic (SNS) and parasympathetic (PNS) branches of the autonomic nervous system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA). The activity of these circuits is integrated and cross-regulated, so that they can be considered as components of a single functional system”
From The Adaptive Calibration Model of stress responsivity (2011) · cites this paper as Ellis et al., 2006
Sensitive children and adults are reflective, self- and other-conscious, engaged with the environment, and high in inhibitory control, executive function, and delay of gratification.
“Sensitive children and adults are reflective, self- and other-conscious, and engaged with the environment; they are also high in inhibitory control, executive function, and delay of gratification.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
