Brooke N. Jenkins, +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that evolutionary psychology uniquely provides a complete understanding of scientific psychology because it explains the functions of the authors' psychological traits, provides us with the most parsimonious explanation of many psychological phenomena, predicts undocumented phenomena, and possibly allows us to avoid the downfalls of some of their contemptible evolved psychological mechanisms.
