Life-History Theory: Fast and Slow Strategies
Just as modern economies undergo periods of boom and bust, human ancestors experienced cycles of abundance and famine.

However, evidence for the coexistence of alternative evolutionary fixed strategies at the population level remains scarce. Because in the tawny owl (Strix aluco) heritable melanin-based coloration shows different physiologic...

In particular we ar...

During human evolutionary history, men’s agreeableness, orientation towards casual sex, and relationship status may have been recurrently associated with greater net benefits of pursuing a sexually exploitative strategy. We hypothesized these three individual differences would predict men’s ...
