Anticipation

 

in psychology and philosophy, the ability to react to events ahead of time. This concept of “anticipation” is closest to the concept introduced in psychology by the German scientist W. Wundt. Psychologists distinguish two senses in which the term “anticipation” is used: (1) an organism’s expectation of a certain situation, which is manifested in some pose or movement; and (2) manifestation by a human being of the results of his action even before the action is performed (hence the definition of the goal as the anticipated subject).

In philosophy, the concept of anticipation is encountered as far back as the Stoics and Epicureans in reference to prolepsis—the general concept of knowledge before the perception of concrete individual things directly from the Logos. F. Bacon took a firm position against anticipation, proceeding from the principle that nature has to be studied, not anticipated. Kant used the term to mean “a priori knowledge of subjects of perception before the perceptions themselves.”

In logic, anticipation is used to denote temporary acceptance of a proposition which is to be proved subsequently, as if it were already proven.

V. A. KOSTELOVSKII

anticipation

[an‚tis·ə′pā·shən] (genetics) The occurrence of a phenotype at a younger age or in a more severe form in succeeding generations of a family.

anticipation


an·tic·i·pa·tion

(an-tis'i-pā'shŭn), 1. Appearance before the appointed time of a periodic symptom or sign. 2. Progressively earlier age of manifestation of a hereditary disease in successive generations; may be factitious (because of heightened awareness of early signs of the disease or because these signs are more conspicuous in the young) or authentic (because of progressive loss of epistatic and modifier genes by recombination and segregation, or because of expansion of unstable alleles in successive generations). 3. An increase in the severity of a phenotype in successive generations of a family, often associated with an increase in the number of trinucleotide repeats in a causative gene (e.g., fragile X syndrome, myotonic dystrophy, Huntington disease).

anticipation

An anomalous pattern of inheritance, first identified by researcher Stephanie Sherman, in which the manifestations of a particular inherited disorder (Sherman studied Fragile X syndrome) are more marked with each passing generation of patients who are at risk of a certain mutation. Anticipation results from two genetic events; a premutation (e.g., insertion of increasing number of the trinucleotide repeat CGG), which eventually passes a threshold and becomes an active mutation in the progeny.

an·tic·i·pa·tion

(ăn-tis'i-pā'shŭn) Foreknowledge or expectation. [L. anticipatio, fr. anticipo, to take before]

anticipation

The occurrence of a hereditary disease at progressively earlier ages, and in progressively more severe form, in successive generations. This is a feature of a range of conditions that includes myotonic dystrophy, the fragile X syndrome and Huntington's disease.
