Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Although the term “evolutionary psychology” would appear both simple and self‐explanatory, suggesting a rather straightforward application of evolutionary theory to both human and nonhuman psychology, appearances can be deceptive. The status of the discipline and its recent history are far from straightforward, and debates between various schools of thought have been rather fraught at times. This entry lays out the origins of evolutionary psychology, human behavioral ecology, and gene–culture coevolutionary theory; explores their central tenets, and discusses the links between them. It also identifies areas of tension and discusses some of the criticisms leveled at these different approaches, from both within and outside the discipline. The need for a more pluralist, biosocial stance is considered, in which cultural explanations are not considered distinct from biological ones nor as complementary but as fully intertwined.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
