The Role and Consequences of Arranged Marriage in the Evolution of Human Mating
Mate selection has important fitness implications and thus has been a prominent focus across the evolutionary social sciences. However, despite ample evidence that human mate selection is uniquely shaped by others, existing research allocates outsized attention to individual preferences. Here, we take stock of the implications of arranged marriage, highlighting measurement issues that obscure continua of parental influence and likely drive incons…
Offspring and parent preferences for a spouse or in-law in an arranged marriage context
Parental influence over mate choice and marriage is a norm across many cultures and throughout human history; however, more attention has been given to preferences of the mating individuals than to the preferences of parents selecting a son- or daughter-in-law. Using data collected in Nepal, a culture with a tradition of arranged marriages, we compare the preferences of unmarried adults and parents of unmarried adults using a budget allocation ta…
Socioeconomic benefits and limited parent–offspring disagreement in arranged marriages in Nepal
Mate preferences probably evolved to increase fitness; however, studies using arranged and non-arranged marriage as proxies for limited and free mate choice (respectively) do not find any reproductive differences. We explore why arranged and non-arranged marriages are an imperfect proxy for limited and free-choice matings and what fitness effects different marriage types could produce. Data from focus group discussions with men and women in Nepal…
Arranged Marriage Often Subverts Offspring Mate Choice
In many species, females and males form long-term mating bonds, but marriage-and especially arranged marriage-are uniquely human traits. While marriage practices impact many cultural phenomena, they also can have evolutionary (i.e., fitness) consequences. Strongly felt but not necessarily conscious mating preferences presumably evolved because they provide fitness benefits compared to random mating, and this prediction has been supported by exper…
