The Modifying Role of Resilience on Allostatic Load and Cardiovascular Disease Risk in the Jackson Heart Study

Social Integration and Quality of Social Relationships as Protective Factors for Inflammation in a Nationally Representative Sample of Black Women
Racial discrimination and leukocyte glucocorticoid sensitivity: Implications for birth timing
The Experience, Contributions, and Resilience of Grandparents of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects 1 in 68 children in the United States and has been associated with significant stress on nuclear families. Little is known about the grandparents of these children, however, including their first-person, intergenerational experience and potential family contributions. A national, online survey of 1,870 grandparents of grandchildren with ASD revealed that they make significant monetary contributions toward th…
Community Breastfeeding Attitudes and Beliefs
The cultural norms of a society have a powerful influence over health behavior decisions such as choosing an infant feeding method. The objective of this study was to explore the community breastfeeding perspective by examining breastfeeding attitudes and beliefs, experiences, and behaviors of a U.S. university community through an online survey. Linear and logistic regressions were used to determine predictors of those who had breastfed and thos…
One Country, One Sport, Endless Knowledge: The Anthropological Study of Sports in South Africa
Keywords: sport, Africa, reconciliation IntroductionThis paper describes some of the many ways that sport allows anthropologists to experience and to analyze African society. Throughout the decades of apartheid, sports served both to define and to defy White superiority. Sport continues to serve as one of the most accessible avenues for the conscious refashioning of African society. While focussing on soccer, the paper includes cricket and rugby,…
The Persistence of Polygyny as an Adaptive Response to Poverty and Oppression in Apartheid South Africa
Many women in Africa choose polygynous over monogamous marriages even in the absence of pressure from relatives. Western explanations of polygyny assume special qualities of the polygynous husband, usually identifying exceptional economic resources as the quality that makes women willing to share a man. This study, conducted in and around Johannesburg and Pretoria from 1983 to 1986, identified other adult females as the most important resource co…
Adolescent exaggeration in female catarrhine primates
Male investment under changing conditions among chacma baboons at Suikerbosrand
Male investment in infant baboons was measured by frequency of carrying from 1978 through 1985. A series of hypotheses was generated and tested with the carrying data, based on the assumptions that: male baboons have some capacity to estimate likelihood of paternity; where paternity probability is greater, males will invest more, where potential benefits to males or infants are higher, males will invest more. Carrying was affected by probability …
The spread of exclusive mating in a chacma baboon population
Mating has progressively tended toward pair bonding in a chacma baboon ( Papio cynocephalus ursinus ) population during eight years of study. Both males and females have been mating with a smaller and smaller percentage of the potential mates available to them. Troop subdivision during the dry winter in the absence of predation was the original cause of mating limitation, but most members of winter subtroops only rarely mated with adults who had …
Neandertal Pelves and Gestation Length: Hypotheses and Holism in Paleoanthropology
Neandertal pelves differed from those of modern humans in pubic morphology. Explanations of this difference are presented and evaluated. The gestation-length hypothesis proposed by Trinkaus is not supported by data and theories drawn from a number of different fields. Some of the alternative hypotheses seem more likely. Paleoanthropologists should utilize a wide variety of evidence to support or falsify their theories in order to increase their p…
Female transfer in baboons
Eight of 19 identified adult females transferred over 7 years in a study of intertroop relations among Papio ursinus at Suikerbosrand. Only one of the eight was cycling at the time of transfer. Five of the seven recent mothers who transferred had lost their infants shortly before transferring. Females who transferred received no more aggression before or after their transfer than females who did not transfer. The most important factors determinin…
Predation and primate evolution
Female age: Male preference and reproductive success in primates
Baboon sexual swellings and male response: A possible operational mammalian supernormal stimulus and response interaction
Levels of social organization and male–female bonding in the genus Papio
Pair‐bonding in the genus Papio seems to be the result of fusion of troops as well as fission. When troop segments regularly split and join again, males who permanently maintain exclusive access to a few females may have an advantage over males who compete for all females who are in estrus. When two or more troops regularly fuse, this advantage may be greatly increased
