Thus, very current models hold that development represents an experiential shaping of genetic potential, and that genetically programmed ‘innate’ structural systems require particular forms of environmental input. According to Cicchetti and Tucker: The traditional assumption was that the environment determines only the psychological residuals of development, such as memories and habits, while brain anatomy matures on its fixed ontogenetic calendar. Environmental experience is now recognized to be critical to the differentiation of brain tissue itself.

The functioning of the ‘self-correcting’ right hemispheric system is central to self-regulation, the ability to flexibly regulate emotional states through interactions with other humans—interactive regulation in interdependent, interconnected contexts via a two-person psychology, and without other humans—autoregulation in independent, autonomous contexts via a one-person psychology. The adaptive capacity to shift between these dual regulatory modes, depending upon the social context, emerges out of a history of secure attachment interactions of a maturing biological organism and a psychobiologically attuned social environment.

Even more specifically, in a number of contributions I cite current findings in neuroscience which suggest that affect-regulating attachment experiences specifically influence the experience-dependent maturation of early developing regulatory systemsof the right brain (Schore, 1994, 1996, 1997a, 1998d, 1999b, 1999d, 2000b, d, 2001a, b, c, d, e, in press a, b, c, d). These early interpersonal affective experiences have a critical effect on, as Bowlby (1969) speculated, the early organization of the limbic system, the brain areas specialized not only for the processing of emotion but also for the organization of new learning and the capacity to adapt to a rapidly changing environment (Mesulam 1998).
