Researchers in [[United Kingdom| Britain ]] and [[United States of America | America]] noticed that male infants in America, where most males were circumcised in the 1970s behave differently from female infants, while [[intact]] male infants in Britain do not behave differently from female infants.

Most certainly, the published description of any sample using male neonates should indicate circumcision status. At present, with rare exception, this information does not appear in any account of subject characteristics.<ref>{{REFjournal
