Behavioral Heterochrony
Behavioral heterochrony is the study of the timing and speed of development of behavior from an evolutionary perspective. Key to studies of behavioral heterochrony is the comparison of development across different species. Such studies can illuminate whether a trait thought to be unique to a given species might in fact have its precursors in the early development of a closely related species. They can inform our understanding of how behavioral de…
The self-domestication hypothesis: Evolution of bonobo psychology is due to selection against aggression
Puberty as a life history transition
BACKGROUND: James Tanner's landmark publication, Growth at Adolescence, was not only the first and most comprehensive treatise on the subject of human pubertal development of its time, its core insights have held up remarkably well over time. REVIEW: This review connects Tanner's contributions to contemporary understanding of puberty as a process fundamentally driven by neuroendocrine maturation. It introduces the concepts of the 'hour-glass of p…
Bonobos have a more human-like second-to-fourth finger length ratio (2D): (4D) than chimpanzees: a hypothesized indication of lower prenatal androgens
