| rdfs:comment | - Imprinting is the ability to mentally imprint (or "write") marks onto surfaces like paper.
- Joe has been shown using this ability once. He used it to sign a pile of contracts. He placed his hand over the papers, which glowed, and golden writing appeared which faded to blue ink. It's unknown if the ability can write in another medium except in ink, or write on something other than paper.
- Imprinting was the act of an infant of a species, soon after its birth, identifying an adult as its parent. In 2154, Captain Jonathan Archer once suffered what Phlox called "reverse-imprinting" when a substance ejected from an Xindi-Insectoid egg made Archer believe he was the "caretaker" of an entire Xindi hatchery. (ENT: "Hatchery")
- Imprinting is one theory of Psychological Therianthropy. Please see: Imprinting and Development on the Psychological Therianthropy page.
- Imprinting is a process of rapid learning that occurs naturally in many lifeforms shortly after birth, which establishes a long-lasting behavioral responses to specific stimuli, and/or psychological attachment to a parent or other individual. Imprinting was a process used in the creation of Mariposan clones, occurring shortly after incubation. (SCE eBook: Out of the Cocoon)
- Imprinting (totally ripped off from the House of Night series) is defined as the process by which a sexually mature Meyerwolf becomes unhealthily obsessed with the child woman most fit to carry his werewolf babies with whom his genes are most compatible. Also, for a book series that's supposedly about choice, how can a process that by definition takes away choice logically fit in? Answer: it doesn't.

| abstract | - Imprinting (totally ripped off from the House of Night series) is defined as the process by which a sexually mature Meyerwolf becomes unhealthily obsessed with the child woman most fit to carry his werewolf babies with whom his genes are most compatible. This allows the werewolves to get away with "falling in love" with prepubescent children without counting as a pedophile. It also frees Meyer from annoying things like relationship development, character development and plot, because heaven forbid the relationships featured in Meyer's pile of trash books are anything but lust-fueled powerplays. Jacob also states that the imprinter will become whatever the imprinted wants him to be, whether that is a brother, a romantic interest, or a father figure. This is supposedly to take away the creep factor, but it totally fails, as the purpose of imprinting is reproduction, which implies that the relationship between the imprinter and the imprinted will become sexual at one point. Also, for a book series that's supposedly about choice, how can a process that by definition takes away choice logically fit in? Answer: it doesn't.
