How might factors like hormones, chemicals, and the weather influence criminal behavior?

These substances alter signaling pathways associated with cognitive functions

Explanation:

It is well known that cortisol hormone is secreted by the adrenal glands in stressful situations. In criminals and convicts, constant and high levels of cortisol have been observed, thereby it is believed that this hormone is associated with criminal behaviors through a 'constant stress-stimulation state'. Moreover, addictive drugs are known to literally destroy the brain. These drugs bind to hormone-like receptors involved in feedback responses. In consequence, after drug consumption, neural pathways will be altered and cognitive functions will be harmed. Finally, evidence linking wheater with criminal behavior is not conclusive.
