Songs as a medium for embedded reproductive messages.
Research shows that sensational news stories as well as popular romance novels often feature themes related to important topics in evolutionary psychology. In the first of four studies described in this paper we examined the song lyrics from three Billboard charts: Country, Pop, and R&B. A content analysis of the lyrics revealed 18 reproductive themes that read like an outline for a course in e...

متن کاملAnalysis of Nonlinear Vibrations for Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes Embedded in an Elastic Medium
Nonlinear free vibration analysis of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) embedded in an elastic medium is studied in this paper based on classical (local) Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Using the averaging method, the nonlinear free vibration responses of DWCNTs are obtained. The result is compared with the obtained results from the harmonic balance method for single-walled carbon nanotubes (...
متن کاملMale House Finches with Elaborate Songs have Higher Reproductive Performance
For territorial animals, vocal signals can play an important role in both territory defense and mate attraction. The elaborate songs of many male songbirds (order: Passeriformes) serve these dual functions (Catchpole & Slater 1995; Collins 2004).
