Whitaker, Anamarie A.; Yoo, Paul Y.; Vandell, Deborah Lowe; Duncan, Greg J.; Burchinal, Margaret – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Children's early environmental experiences are often considered highly influential for later life development.

Safety is essential for life. To survive, humans and other animals have developed sets of psychological and physiological adaptations known as life history (LH) tradeoff strategies in response to various safety constraints. Evolutionarily selected LH strategies in turn regulate development and behavior to optimize survival under prevailing safety…
