RESUMO
Apresenta-se apreciação crítica da Psicologia da Religião no Brasil, no período de 1956 a 2005, realizada com base em artigos publicados principalmente em periódicos nacionais de Psicologia. Avaliaram-se 125 artigos, segundo o tema, a teoria e a metodologia. Observou-se tendência de aumento gradativo do número de publicações. Os temas preferidos foram saúde, experiência religiosa, vocação, identidade e relações entre psicologia e religião. A produção revela utilização de teorias, conceitos e métodos da linha-mestra da Psicologia. A apreciação crítica é contextualizada em termos da origem da Psicologia da Religião no Brasil, da sua institucionalização acadêmica e dos eventos que resultaram numa literatura científica específica.(AU)

SOX-3 is a transcription factor expressed throughout the developing central nervous system and is involved in maintenance of pluripotency in self-renewing stem cells, specification events, lineage progression, and terminal differentiation. An association between growth hormone deficiency, mental retardation, and Sox-3 mutations in humans was previously reported. The occurrence of abnormalities affecting the polyalanine tract of the Sox-3 gene was determined in a group of 77 unrelated mentally retarded patients without a definite genetic diagnosis and in 84 control subjects. A new SOX-3 polyalanine tract deletion was identified in a mentally impaired boy, in his mother (homozygous), and in 2 healthy brothers of the proband. This new mutation does not segregate with mental retardation.
