Why do psychologists study children that have been adopted?

It allows psychologists to identify the differences between nature (what you are born with and cannot be changed, such as genetics) and nurture (what you learn from your surroundings and your environment.) For example, if the child's parents have schizophrenia and the child was adopted for some reason, it would be interesting to see if the child developed schizophrenia later on in life. If the child didn't develop schizophrenia, then the argument would be that you develop schizophrenia from your surroundings, it is learnt. However, if the child did develop schizophrenia, then it is more likely to do with genetics and therefore cannot be changed. Schizophrenia is just an example. It can be applied to lots of areas such as criminal behaviour, aggressive behaviour, mental disorders, illnesses and so forth.

How do you find out if your children have been adopted by their step father?

If the parent-child relationship between you and your children has not been terminated, then their stepfather cannot adopt them. If it has been terminated, you would check court records in the county where the children live. It would be in the name of the children. However, the records may be sealed, in which case, you likely won't be able to find out.
