  • Gender, kinship, and the structure of friendship networks among Tsimane horticulturalists in lowland Bolivia

    Open AccessD Redhead, Lauren Carter et al.ARTICLEEvolution and Human Behavior2026

    Friendship is a central feature of human social organisation, yet most empirical evidence on friendship networks comes from children and adolescents in industrialised societies. Here, we examine adult friendship networks among Tsimane horticulturalists of lowland Bolivia to test predictions about the structure of women’s and men’s friendship networks and the role of age and kinship in friend choice. Using sociocentric network data from adults in …

  • Social clustering of preference for female genital mutilation/cutting in south-central Ethiopia

    Open AccessSarah Myers, Eshetu Gurmu et al.ARTICLENature Human Behaviour2025Cited by: 1References: 49

    Recent estimates indicate that half of Ethiopian girls aged 15-19 years have experienced female genital mutilation/cutting (FGMC). Establishing whether and how pro-FGMC norms are maintained through social transmission is a key priority for global eradication efforts. Here we present the first large-scale socio-centric social network study estimating social influence and social selection on preference for cutting female relatives using data from 5…

  • Social Networks, cooperation and social status in rural Colombia

    Open AccessD Redhead, C T Ro et al.ARTICLECahiers du Centre de recherches…2025

    Within any given hierarchy, individuals differ in their social influence and decision-making authority (i.e., in social status) and these differences govern their access to the resources available to their group. Existing work has demonstrated two broad routes to achieving social status: through prestige, the perceived ability and willingness to confer benefits to others, and dominance, the perceived ability and willingness to inflict harm. I wil…

  • A gene–culture co-evolutionary perspective on the puzzle of human twinship

    Open AccessAugusto Dalla Ragione, C T Ro et al.ARTICLEEvolutionary Human Sciences2024References: 15

    Natural selection should favour litter sizes that optimise trade-offs between brood-size and offspring viability. Across the primate order, the modal litter size is one, suggesting a deep history of selection favouring minimal litters in primates. Humans, however – despite having the longest juvenile period and slowest life-history of all primates – still produce twin births at appreciable rates, even though such births are costly. This presents …

  • Automatic entry and coding of social networks and dyadic peer ratings

    Open AccessC T Ro, D RedheadARTICLEMethodological Innovations2023Cited by: 1References: 25

    In small-scale communities, social-scientists can use photo-rosters to collect social network and dyadic peer-ratings data. In past work, we introduced an R package to automate photo-standardization, survey construction, and data-entry. This R package, however, lacked two key features required for fully-unsupervised data-entry. First, respondent IDs needed to be manually linked to cellphone photographs of the photo-roster before DieTryin could pr…

  • Social Hierarchies and Social Networks in Humans

    D Redhead, Eleanor A PowerPREPRINT2021

    Across species, social hierarchies are often governed by dominance relations. In humans, where there are multiple culturally-valued axes of distinction, social hierarchies can take a variety of forms and need not rest on dominance relations. Consequently, humans navigate multiple domains of status, i.e., relative standing. Importantly, while these hierarchies may be constructed from dyadic interactions, they are often more fundamentally guided by…
