A recent study published in the journal Behaviour Research and Therapy has shed light on how humans react differently to threats compared to rewards. The researchers found that people tend to respond more intensely and quickly to negative or threatening images than to positive or rewarding ones. This phenomenon, referred to as “negativity effects,” was particularly pronounced in women compared to men. The study was motivated by the desire to better understand why humans often react more strongly to threats than to rewards. Evolutionary theories suggest that it is more crucial for survival to r...

New research published in Evolutionary Psychological Science proposes a proactive model where envy, with its capacity to intensify scrutiny of social disparities and drive competitive neutralization, forms the core of radicalizing behaviors. From 2012 to 2016, about 4,000 citizens from diverse European Union cities made the choice to join militant factions in Syria. This decision, despite inherent risks, challenges traditional understandings of collective action theory, which posits that individuals might prefer benefiting from the actions of others without direct participation. Traditional ra...

In a new analysis published in Evolution and Human Behavior, a group of researchers have scrutinized the findings of a widely-publicized study by Anderson and colleagues, which had claimed significant female participation in hunting across diverse foraging societies. The reassessment reveals that while the original findings spurred important discussions, they likely overstate women’s involvement in hunting due to methodological shortcomings. In 2023, Anderson and colleagues published a study titled “The Myth of Man the Hunter: Women’s contribution to the hunt across ethnographic contexts” in w...

Recent research published in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior has highlighted an intriguing facet of family dynamics: girls are just as likely as boys to engage in physical and verbal aggression towards their siblings. The study, which examined into minor forms of violence like hitting, kicking, and yelling, reveals that such behaviors are surprisingly common among siblings and do not exhibit the gender differences typically seen in aggressive interactions outside the family. The primary aim of the new study was to explore the nature of sibling aggression and to determine whether the w...
