The Inequality Process As An Evolutionary Process
The Inequality Process (IP) is a competition process that models the dynamics of personal income and wealth at the micro (individual person) and macro (distribution) levels. At the micro level, it is a particle system. It has a macro model in terms of the parameters of the micro model, a gamma pdf that approximates the stationary distribution of the micro model. Randomly paired particles compet...

Selection theory requires multiple, distinct, simultaneously-actualized states. In cognition, each thought or cognitive state changes the ‘selection pressure’ against which the next is evaluated; they are not simultaneously selected amongst. Creative thought is more a matter of honing in a vague idea through redescribing successive iterations of it from different real or imagined perspectives; ...

متن کاملGeneral intelligence as a domain-specific adaptation.
General intelligence (g) poses a problem for evolutionary psychology's modular view of the human brain. The author advances a new evolutionary psychological theory of the evolution of general intelligence and argues that general intelligence evolved as a domain-specific adaptation for the originally limited sphere of evolutionary novelty in the ancestral environment. It has accidentally become ...
متن کاملHuman General Intelligence as a Domain General Psychological Adaptation
The concept of general intelligence as measured by standard IQ tests has always been a difficult fit for evolutionary psychology. This paper argues that intelligence is a set of domain general abilities which was not designed to solve any specific problem from the human evolutionary past. Rather, general intelligence equips humans to make mental models of the environment and to develop action p...
