Contribution of Time Estimation and Knowledge to Heartbeat Counting Task Performance under Original and Adapted Instructions.

abstract：:Although reduced cortisol reactivity to stress and increased circulating testosterone level are hypothesized to be associated with higher levels of externalizing behavior, empirical findings are inconsistent. One factor that may account for the heterogeneity in these relationships is prenatal testosterone exposure. Th...
