The definitions that must be made and empirical patterns demonstrated to document a case of ADP. (See text for definitions. In keeping with the text, the empirical patterns have been stated in terms of dichotomous variables. They can be straightforwardly translated into general linear model form for continuous empirical cases. For example, the second requirement translates as the need for a significant regression coefficient of P on I, and the third line as the need for a significant interaction between P and I in predicting w.)

general
define I and P
show that I leads to the development of P
demonstrate that w(P|I) > w(⌝P|I) and w(⌝P|⌝I) > w(P|⌝I)
specify an informational or somatic state-based hypothesis
information-based	somatic state-based
define relevant adult environment E	define a relevant adult somatic state variable S
demonstrate that w(P|E) > w(⌝P|E) and w(⌝P|⌝E) > w(P|⌝E); or, relatedly, demonstrate that w(E|I) > w(⌝E|I) and w(⌝E|⌝I) > w(E|⌝I)	demonstrate that w(P|S) > w(⌝P|S) and w(⌝P|⌝S) > w(P|⌝S)
show that under evolutionarily relevant conditions, I carries information about E	show that I causes lasting variation in S
