The popular consensus on mate choice has long been that females select mates likely to pass good genes to offspring. This book overturns much of this conventional wisdom. Providing the first synthesis of the topic in more than three decades, and drawing from a wide range of fields, including animal behavior, evolutionary biology, social psychology ...

Mate Choice During and After Mating
2017Just as choosers need to sample multiple courters to exercise premating choice, they also need to mate with multiple courters (i.e., be promiscuous) in order to exercise cryptic choice. This chapter focuses on peri-and postmating choice, starting with intimate interactions when individuals are mating or about to mate, and continuing through ...

Selection on Mate Choice and Mating Preferences
2017This chapter focuses on the proximate sources of selection on chooser preferences and mate-choice algorithms. It surveys the sources of selection on the outcome of choice, and then turns to the evolution of mate-searching strategies and choosiness. Next, it examines at what point in the process choosers make choices. Should choosers reject matings from

Euclidean Mate Value and Power of Choice on the Mating Market
Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, 2017Three studies tested the hypothesis that human mate choice psychology uses a Euclidean algorithm to integrate mate preferences into estimates of mate value. In Study 1, a series of agent-based models identify a pattern of results relatively unique to mating markets where individuals high in Euclidean mate value experience greater power of choice ...

The evolution of postpairing male mate choice: POSTPAIRING MALE MATE CHOICE
2017An increasing number of empirical studies in animals have demonstrated male mate choice. However, little is known about the evolution of postpairing male choice, specifically which occurs by differential allocation of male parental care in response to female signals. We use a population genetic model to examine whether such postpairing male mate choice
