In addition, research has documented atypical trait EI profiles among individuals with ASDs (Montgomery et al., 2008; Petrides et al., 2011), and has further demonstrated that trait EI can potentially provide important insights into the underpinnings of optimal social-cognitive functioning (e.g., the flexible application of complex emotions and social cue decoding).
The manic and depressive domains focus on the presence of specific manic and depressive features respectively, including either isolated or clustered typical and atypical symptoms, traits and lifestyles that may characterize the temperamental affective dysregulations that make both fully syndromal and subthreshold mood disturbances.
Potentially missing subjects may have had atypical intermediate trait values or disease status (or other diseases related to the same genotype).
Starting from a lifetime approach, researchers of the Spectrum Project developed the Mood Spectrum Self-Report (MOODS-SR) that assesses threshold-level manifestations of unipolar and bipolar mood psychopathology, but also atypical symptoms, behavioral traits and temperamental features.
(Why do you think there are so many hardcore yet self-consciously campy porn parodies?) "I consider myself a ridiculous character to start," said Lawless, "so adopting atypical banter and traits is usually a fun thing for me.
In addition, the genome sequence of R. felis revealed morphological surprises, such as the presence of plasmids (pRF) and conjugative pili, as well as genetic traits atypical of most rickettsial genomes, such as elevated copies of several transposase families, spoT genes and genes coding for uncharacterized proteins with ankyrin (ANK) and tetratricopeptide (TPR) motifs [21], [22].
The estimated selection gradients were steep, but not atypical for morphological traits [ 33], both on the axis separating ecotypes (RW1) and on the axis showing the greater plastic response (RW2).
Sherwood grew medicinal herbs and wore trousers instead of a dress while working on her farm; both traits were atypical of ladies of that era.
It would therefore be unsurprising to find that individuals with extreme levels of these traits presented atypical engagement of the regions outlined above when faced with others' distress.
Neuroimaging data have suggested that individuals with high levels of psychopathic traits show atypical responses to others' pain in a network of brain regions typically recruited during empathic processing (anterior insula, inferior frontal gyrus, and mid- and anterior cingulate cortex).
