Behavioral Transgenerational Effects is a transgenerational phenomenon in which ancestral exposure to environmental toxins induces persistent alterations in behavior that manifest across multiple subsequent generations without further exposure, distinguished from other epigenetic outcomes by its specific impact on cognitive, affective, or social behaviors mediated through germline transmission of molecular changes.
