1 Sociobiological Approaches What We Will Cover in This Section Overview Evolutionary Theory Sociobiology Summary 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 2 Overview Total focus on internal aspects of personality and behavior. Emphasis on. Bodily structures. Physiological processes. Natural selection and evolutionary processes. Nomothetic. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 3
2 Darwin: Evolutionary Theory 1. Living organisms can produce more offspring than environmental resources can support. 2. This leads to Struggle for Survival. 3. Organisms that compete better to reach reproductive maturity produce offspring (Survival of the Fittest). 4. The biological characteristics that allow organisms to survive will be passed on to offspring. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 4 Inclusive Fitness Our biological goal (energy) is to ensure that our genes (our own and those of of our relatives) get carried on. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 5 Basic Assumptions 1. We live to pass copies of our genes to the next generation and to ensure their survival. 2. Natural selection influences social behavior as well as anatomical and physiological structures. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 6
3 Ideas About Human Nature 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 7 Empirical (Social Science) Model A person s internal and external behavior is a function of life experiences. No inherited predispositions. Tabala rasa. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 8 Evolutionary Psychology The human mind and body have been shaped by evolutionary pressures. We are predisposed to act in certain ways and to avoid other behaviors. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 9
4 Cultural Universals If a class of social behavior occurs in every culture, it is probably genetically determined. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 10 Question? What social behaviors occur in all cultures? 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 11 Biogrammar The innate, genetic programming that structures our social behavior. This is a template for behavior. Provides a potential, not the implementation. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 12
5 Biological Sources of Behavior 1. Primary Epigenetic Rules Innate capacities that determine what environmental stimuli can be sensed or experienced. 2. Secondary Epigenetic Rules Innate processes that determine how environmental stimuli are processed, reacted to, learned. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 13 Biological Sources of Behavior 3. Prepared Learning. Our predisposition to learn some things and not learn others. Language. Culture. Dominance hierarchies. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 14 Behavioral Interaction Biological Predispositions Environmental Experiences and Culture 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 15
6 Biology and Personality 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 16 Mate Selection - Females Energy expenditure in reproduction is high. Seek out good genes that will ensure survival. Seek out mates with good resources. Seek out highest potential for stability and protection. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 17 Self-promotion: Females Emphasize Youth Fertility Faithfulness Vitality Competitor derogation. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 18
7 Mate Selection - Males Reproductive Value vs. Fertility. Energy selection in producing offspring is low. Males seek out attractiveness and fertility. Age is an indicator of fertility. To ensure continuation of genes multiple mates is the best policy. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 19 Number of sexual partners desired Number of partners Mo 6 Mo 1 Year 2 Yrs 3 Yrs 4 Yrs 5 Yrs 10 Yrs 20 Yrs 30 Yrs Life Time Males Females 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 20 Self-promotion: Males Emphasize Strength. Ability to provide resources. Readiness to commit and faithfulness. Stability. Competitor derogation. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 21
8 Parenting - Traditional Female Offspring are a major biological investment. Child rearing is important. Male Broad capacity to reproduce. Less vested interest in an individual child. May have to be enticed to participate in child rearing. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 22 Parenting Other Issues Stepparents. There is no genetic interest on the part of the stepparent. Children are 100 times more likely to be abused by a stepparent than a genetic parent. Incest. Generally shunned in all societies. Westermark Effect. Children raised together are unlikely to become sexually intimate when they are adults. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 23 Altruism 1. Kin Altruism. Offering to help genetic relatives. Indirectly helping your genes continue into the future. 2. Reciprocal Altruism. Offering to help others who are not genetic relatives. Humans that help one another have a better chance of surviving than those who don t. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 24
9 Hamilton s Rule r x B > C r = proportion of shared genes. B = Benefit C = Cost 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 25 Aggression Assume that human aggression is an inherited potential. Through culture we learn how to direct it. Aggressive behavior occurs when the benefits outweigh the costs. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 26 Religion and Ethics Shared beliefs allow us to live together cooperatively. can lead to reciprocal altruism. simplify life and make it more predictable. make common rules (ethics, laws, rules) easier to communicate. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 27
10 Dysfunctional Behavior Context failure. Activation of an inherited mechanism in a situation other than those for which it was evolved. Suicide Murder 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 28 Psychological Disorders Addiction Anorexia Nervosa Anxiety disorders 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 29 Eysenck s Heritability Criteria (Again) 1. Is there a genetic contribution? 2. Is the behavior seen in nonhumans? 3. Is the behavior seen in other cultures? 4. Is the behavior stable over time? 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 30
11 Issues and Contributions Issues. Not falsifiable. Rigidly deterministic. Is it racist and sexist?***. Too general to be useful. Contributions. Scientific foundation for studying behavior. Provides a new framework for studying behavior. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 31 Postview Individual Differences Adaptation & Adjustment Cognitive Processes Biology Development Based on environmental experiences. Not much here. Our thinking capacity is generally inherited and fixed. Experience then molds it. Major template for personality. Determined by biological critical stages. 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 32 THE END 7/22/2007 Sociobiological Approaches.ppt 33
