vulnerability to psychopathology has little to do with the brain changes associated with genetics or early life events. early life events play a much greater role in the development of brain structure of function than genetics. both genetics and life events play a part in the development of brain structure and function that can affect vulnerability to psychopathology. life events can only cause changes in brain structure or function for those with genetic defects. true or false

False. While genetics can influence the way a person's brain is structured and functions, life events can also play a role in the development of brain structure and function, regardless of whether or not someone has genetic defects.
