58(1):69-96.
PMID: 23750376
Considerable progress has been made in behavioral genetics toward providing theoretical accounts of individual differences. One theoretical ask, however, has been largely neglected—that of constructing evolutionary accounts of behaviorally relevant...

. 2011 Jan;
1(3):103-8.
PMID: 21223873
Evolutionary psychology seeks to understand the adaptive, evolved nature of humans by considering the forces of natural selection that gave rise to it. Individual humans also exhibit maladaptation, however, and...

. 2001 Aug;
268(1477):1677-84.
PMID: 11506680
A single trait's fluctuating asymmetry (FA) is expected to be a poor measure of developmental instability. Hence, studies that examine associations between FA and outcomes expected to covary with developmental...
