🧪 'The Multi-Capital Leadership theory' explains how leader emergence and effectiveness depend on different forms of capital—material, social, somatic, and neural across diverse human societies. bit.ly/4951S3a @edhagen.net @zhgarfield.com #LeadSciSky #HBES
(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?

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.

A stellar new review on the natural history of sociality from Joan Silk:
"Even in a world in which we can order groceries on the internet and work remotely, we depend on our connections to others for our well-being."

"These findings suggest that a person’s mate-preference psychology is shaped by both one’s own sex and the sex of the target being evaluated."

In line with reciprocal altruism and social contract theory: "the top three most important predictors [of cooperation] were expectations of partner behavior, preferences for conditional cooperation, and punishment."

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
