(Compelling bad ideas are annoyingly sticky of course, even when well rebutted. But that's not unique to EP by a long shot.)

Anyway, read the paper, marvel at the lack of actual good data on femininity and fertility. Consider doing the critical test research yourself?

The Multi-Capital Leadership Theory - Human Nature Human leadership and followership take many forms, shaped by the social, economic, political, and cultural contexts of our groups and societies. Underlying this complexity, we argue, are key elements of human social psychology regarding social comparison and the resolution of coordination and collective action problems. The Multi-Capital Leadership (MCL) theory posits that leader emergence and effectiveness depend on perceptions of individuals’ abilities to provide benefits or impose costs in solving challenges of group living, through the deployment of different forms of capital: material, social, somatic (e.g., physical formidability, height, immune functionality), and neural (e.g., knowledge, intelligence, personality, supernatural abilities). We integrate this framework with a review of leadership across human societies, including in non-state and non-industrial contexts, and with novel comparative analyses of ethnographic data. This synthesis highlights how context-specific demands for coordination and collective action, and the accuracy of social comparison, shape the structure and dynamics of leadership and followership across cultures.

>The Multi-Capital Leadership theory explains why #leadership emerges and why it varies among human societies and throughout individual life histories.

We seek applicants for a tenure-track appointment at the assistant professor level in the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability in the field of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (also referred to as Indigenous and local knowledge, Indigenous science, Native science, and other similar terms) and its relevance to social and environmental sustainability. Topical research areas of interest include, but are not limited to: the role of fire and other aspects of Indigenous land stewardship in the changing climate; establishment and management of natural protected areas; conservation and application of the wild relatives of crops and animals; the ethical and responsible collection and use of socio-ecological data; environmental governance; the role of tribal food and land sovereignty and cultural revitalization for environmental sustainability; and two-eyed seeing, the multicultural approach to understanding the natural world using both Indigenous and Western sciences as independent, but complementary, ways of knowing.

The range of expertise and facilities across Stanford University’s main campus, as well as Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve ('Ootchamin 'Ooyakma) and Hopkins Marine Station, provide opportunities to develop a research program that bridges Indigenous and Western knowledge systems.

A common claim in #EvoPsych is that the persistence of psychological sex differences in gender-egalitarian* countries shows that the differences are innate. I've argued that ignores the highly-gender-unequal media environment. Now @larawood.bsky.social has proved me right!

Review of 54 studies shows psychological sex differences often grow—rather than shrink—in countries with better living conditions. Personality and emotion differences increase, while sexual behavior and math differences decrease.

Male investment adapts to sex ratios: In taverns, men reached the bar faster to order drinks when groups had higher male-biased sex ratios (ASR) or fewer women. Similar to other species, men adjust investments to maximize mating opportunities

Efferson et al. show cooperation's fragility in repeated interactions, highlighting between-group competition's role in human evolution. Yet, their findings aren't novel nor tied to their continuous investment model—raising questions about claims on cultural group selection. #HBES #evobio #CultEvo

I read the article yesterday and found it exemplary in how the authors critique the methodological issues of Anderson et al. (2023) while doing so respectfully, acknowledging the complexity and challenges of working with ethnographic data.

Bollywood, Are You Watching? Bihar's Daughters Are Coding A quiet revolution is unfolding across India.

Can Bollywood start a cultural change?

It is interesting how the emotion of shame is downplayed when earning a high salary, especially when sending part of it to one’s family, becomes strongly valued.
