Abstract excerpt

We evaluated placentation effects on behavioral resemblance of 44 pairs of monozygotic (MZ) twin children. Tested at ages 4-6, the twins' zygosity and placental type had been determined at their delivery. The sample included 23 monochorionic (MC) and 21 dichorionic (DC) MZ twin pairs: DC-MZ twins result from separation of blastomeres within 72 h of ovulation; MC-MZ twins arise from later duplication of the inner...
