Hey Bryan, don't you know the plural of anecdote is data? Seriously, there is plenty of evidence (and it is widely accepted) that injuries to different parts of the brain consistently produce particular changes in behavior. Not even Jensen would argue that g is the only aspect of neurology that matters for behavior (assuming g has a neurological basis which is not established).
What is wrong with the notion that there are parts of the brain that specialize in controling social behavior and that they develop late? We know that there are some profoundly specialized cognitive abilities having to do precisely with regulating trading behavior. Maybe they develop more slowly than other aspects of personality. - - Bill Dickens William T.
