22. Evolutionary Psychology FAQ Frequently asked questions about evolutionary psychology. http://www.anth.ucsb.edu/projects/human/epfaq/evpsychfaq_full.html

The Evolutionary Psychology FAQ Last updated September 8, 2004. This FAQ is written and maintained by Edward Hagen , formerly of the Center for Evolutionary Psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara, and now at the Institute for Theoretical Biology in Berlin. The FAQ assumes a basic knowledge of genes and natural selection. Its purpose is to outline the foundations of evolutionary psychology. These foundations are extremely robust (though not beyond criticism). The status of specific hypotheses (e.g., mate selection preferences, cheater detection modules) is more debatable, and will not be discussed in detail here. In addition, I address many of the common misconceptions about evolutionary psychology. This FAQ draws upon the work of many individuals. Comments and criticisms regarding it are welcome: e.hagen@biologie.hu-berlin.de . A Russian translation of this FAQ is also available. Frequently asked questions: What is evolutionary psychology? What is the EEA and why is it important? (general answer) What is the EEA? (detailed answer) Isn't it true that we can't know what happened in the distant past, so the EEA concept is useless? ... What do you do? What is evolutionary psychology? In the three and a half centuries since William Harvey proved that the purpose of the heart is to pump blood, physiologists have revealed the functional organization of the body in blinding detail. Their discoveries demonstrate beyond question that the structure of the body serves survival and reproduction. Further, there is near unanimity among biologists that this functional structure is a product of natural selection. In our century, psychologists have developed powerful techniques that conclusively demonstrate that cognition, too, has structure. Evolutionary psychologists are betting that cognitive structure, like physiological structure, has been designed by natural selection to serve survival and reproduction.

Human beings are the products of millions of years of evolution by natural selection. Sometime in the last 5 million years, natural selection created a creature with a very large brain that walked upright, was adept at making and using tools, developed language, and came to rely heavily on imitation, social learning, and culture. Biological anthropologists study all facets of this process. Biological anthropology is interesting and important because an evolutionary perspective provides a rich source of insight about why we are the way we are. The program in biological anthropology at UCLA focuses on four areas of research: Evolutionary theory: Mathematical studies of how evolutionary processes work. Primate Behavior: Field studies of free ranging primates that aim to show how natural selection has molded the bodies and behavior of our closest living relatives. Hominid Evolution: Studies of the fossil and archaeological record which help us understand the ecological and social factors that have shaped human evolutionary history. Evolutionary psychology and ecology: Field and laboratory studies of of contemporary human psychology and behavior rooted in the evolutionary paradigm.

34. Singer: Ethics In The Age Of Evolutionary Psychology evolutionary psychology, as it is known, is the intellectual growth industry If the left takes account of evolutionary psychology, Singer argues that it http://cogweb.ucla.edu/Debate/SingerPM.html

Peter Singer Ethics in the Age of Evolutionary Psychology Francis Steen, 7 March 2000 Peter Singer is a prominent philosopher/bio-ethicist whose recent appointment to a chair in bio-ethics at Princeton University's Center for Human Values was covered on the front page of the New York Times ; see Princeton Appointment Creates an Uproar (local copy). In the following interview, he takes on the vital task of negotiating the role of evolutionary psychology in ethics and politics. This topic is followed up in a forthcoming book, A Darwinian Left: Politics, Evolution and Cooperation (New Haven: Yale UP, 2000), where Singer argues that once we separate "ought" from "is," Darwinism will be freed of its ideological baggage. By "is" he means the way things are, from the perspective of evolutionary psychology. By "ought" he means the decisions we make based on those accounts. He points out, for example, that "To say that human beings have a tendency to form hierarchies is not to say that it is right for our society to remain hierarchal; but it is to issue a warning that we should not expect to abolish hierarchy by eliminating the particular hierarchy we have in our society." Singer uses game theory to make his point. In the well-known Prisoner's Dilemma, you and another prisoner are being held incommunicado from each other and the world. Your interrogator gives you a set of options. If you inform on the other person and he stays silent, you go free while he is stuck with the sucker's payoff of a twenty-year term. Or vice versa if you don't talk and he does. If you both talk, you each get ten years. If neither of you squeals, the case against both is weak; after a term of six months each, you'll both go free.

37. What Is Evolutionary Psycholgy? evolutionary psychology is not a specific sub field of psychology, evolutionary psychology is the science that seeks to explain through universal http://www.evoyage.com/Whatis.html

What is Evolutionary Psychology? Simply put: Evolutionary psychology is the combination of two sciences evolutionary biology and cognitive psychology. Introducing Evolutionary Psychology Another explanation: Evolutionary psychology is the approach of explaining human behavior based on the combination of evolutionary biology, anthropology, cognitive science, and the neurosciences. Evolutionary psychology is not a specific sub field of psychology, such as the study of vision, reasoning, or social behavior. It is a way of thinking about psychology that can be applied to any topic within it. "Evolutionary Psychology and the Emotions," by Leda Cosmides & John Tooby, from the new book, Handbook of Emotions, 2nd Edition M. Lewis, J.M. Haviland-Jones, Editors, NY, Guilford, 2000. Another explanation: Evolutionary psychology is the science that seeks to explain through universal mechanisms of behavior why humans act the way they do (See, Assumptions About EP to Help Guide You) . Evolutionary psychology seeks to reconstruct problems that our ancestors faced in their primitive environments, and the problem-solving mechanisms they created to meet those particular challenges. From these reconstructed problem-solving adaptations, the science then attempts to establish the common roots of our ancestral behavior, and how those common behavioral roots are manifested today in the widely scattered cultures of the planet. The goal is to understand human behavior that is universally aimed at the passing of one's genes into the next generation.

Home Dawn Workshops Links ... Submit your link Join Consciousness MSN Groups M etaconsciousness is the central theme in the constant symphony of the universe The purpose of this Web site to set in motion, the discovery of a reality that will awake, a superior consciousness, a metaconsciousness. Our incapacity in the past to actualize this superior consciousness stems from the fact of our total empowerment by a dualistic consciousness which has always prevented us from being instructed on it's innerworking's. This new supramental consciousness will uncover the reality that is hiding under the dense clouds of the polarised consciousness within us, through which we have been forever trying to decypher the essence of life. This site undertakes to enable individuals that are ready to absorb its essence and who possess some affinity and resonnance to this new aweareness the possibility to familiarize themselves with this metaconsciousness. The pages that will fallow, whether they are a revelation for some or a confirmation for others, will permit to build the basic structure of your future evolution. Their first and foremost objective is to awaken within you, the foundation of this new consciousness.
