DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this network is to bring together basic and clinical scientists conducting work in areas relevant to psychological aspects of sexual differentiation, to build an integrated and interdisciplinary understanding of the topic, focusing on both normal developmental processes and developmental problems. This should also lead to an understanding of the complex origins of the psychological problems associated with variations in psychosexual differentiation, including those common in children and adolescents with intersex disorders and those with sex-atypical behavior, and ultimately to evidence-based treatments specific to these populations. The aims are to (1) strengthen conceptual and empirical linkages among research in several areas: (a) physical and behavioral sexual differentiation; (b) relation of psychosexual differentiation to psychopathology; (c) child, family, and peer influences on the development of mental health and illness in children and adolescents with prenatal risk factors or chronic health conditions; (2) develop collaborative research programs designed to describe (a) processes through which genes, prenatal sex hormones, and postnatal social experiences jointly contribute to the development of psychosexual differentiation; (b) ways in which trajectories of psychosexual differentiation affect overall psychological development; (c) ways in which mental health of children and adolescents with intersex conditions or sex-atypical behavior is influenced by non-sex-typed physical and social characteristics; and to (d) develop or refine animal paradigms to explain biological and social processes underlying normal and nonnormative sex-typed behaviors. Network activities include full and targeted subgroup meetings, electronic collaboration, visits between labs, development and implementation of pilot projects, and development of collaborative multi-site grant applications. The 15 network members represent expertise from molecular through behavioral levels, with rodent, monkey, and human child, adolescent, and adult populations: Sheri Berenbaum (PI), David Sandberg, Adrian Angold, Dennis Drotar, Rina Das Eiden, Erica Eugster, Barry Kogan, Mary Lee, Peter Lee, Carol Martin, Cindy Meston, Emile Rissman, Sally Shaywitz, Eric Vilain, and Kim Wallen. Consultants participating in discussion of specific issues include Robert Blizzard, Norman Fost, David Page, John McArdle, Ora Pescovitz, and Susan Resnick.

描述（由申请人提供）：该网络的目的是将基本和临床的科学家汇集在与性差异化有关的领域进行工作的基础和临床科学家，以建立对该主题的综合和跨学科的理解，重点关注正常的发展过程和发展问题。这也应导致人们对与心理差异的变化相关的心理问题的复杂起源，包括在患有双性恋疾病的儿童和青少年和性行为性行为的人中常见的人，最终是针对这些人群特有的证据治疗的患者。目的是（1）在多个领域的研究之间加强概念和经验联系：（a）身体和行为性分化； （b）心理差异与心理病理学的关系； （c）儿童，家庭和同伴对患有产前危险因素或慢性健康状况的儿童和青少年心理健康和疾病发展的影响； （2）制定合作研究计划，旨在描述（a）基因，产前性激素和产后社会经历的过程，共同有助于心理差异化的发展； （b）心理分化轨迹影响整体心理发展的方式； （c）具有跨性别条件或性别典型行为的儿童和青少年的心理健康受到非性质的身体和社会特征的影响；并（d）发展或完善动物范式，以解释正常和非规范性行为行为的生物学和社会过程。网络活动包括完整的和有针对性的子组会议，电子协作，实验室之间的访问，试点项目的开发和实施以及协作多站点赠款应用程序的开发。 The 15 network members represent expertise from molecular through behavioral levels, with rodent, monkey, and human child, adolescent, and adult populations: Sheri Berenbaum (PI), David Sandberg, Adrian Angold, Dennis Drotar, Rina Das Eiden, Erica Eugster, Barry Kogan, Mary Lee, Peter Lee, Carol Martin, Cindy Meston, Emile Rissman, Sally Shaywitz，Eric Vilain和Kim Wallen。参加讨论的顾问包括Robert Blizzard，Norman Fost，David Page，John McArdle，Ora Pescovitz和Susan Resnick。
