The Impact of Global Drug Policy on Women Shifting the Needle
The international strategy of criminalising the cultivation, manufacture, distribution and use of certain psychoactive substances has failed to achieve a ‘drug free world’.

There is evidence that because of this differential experience, infants develop a cognitive representation for human faces that is weighted toward female-like and attractive.

Decision-Making in Complex Dynamic and Evolutive Systems The Need For a New …
For contemporary psychology, decision-making represents behaviours, which are very different from automatic responses. They are developed by implementing integrative cognitive functions adapted to the finalities sought and the situation to treat.
