TL;DR: A theory is proposed that unites and organizes observations and generates many theoretical and empirical predictions that can be tested in future research by comparative biologists, archeologists, paleontologists, biological anthropologists, demographers, geneticists, and cultural anthropologists.

TL;DR: A cross-cultural study of behavior in ultimatum, public goods, and dictator games in a range of small-scale societies exhibiting a wide variety of economic and cultural conditions found the canonical model – based on self-interest – fails in all of the societies studied.

TL;DR: This work uses this population of hunters and gatherers living in the neotropical rainforest of eastern Paraguay to make a signal contribution to human evolutionary ecology.

TL;DR: It is found that hunter-gatherers display a unique social structure where either sex may disperse or remain in their natal group, adult brothers and sisters often co-reside, and most individuals in residential groups are genetically unrelated, which suggests large social networks may help to explain why humans evolved capacities for social learning.

TL;DR: Induction of labor at 39 weeks in low‐risk nulliparous women did not result in a significantly lower frequency of a composite adverse perinatal outcome, but it did result in less frequency of cesarean delivery.
