Undermatching is an emergent property of selection by consequences
Behavioural Processes, 2007A computational theory of selection by consequences [McDowell, J.J, 2004. A computational model of selection by consequences. J. Exp. Anal. Behav. 81, 297-317] was tested by studying the responding of virtual organisms that were animated by the theory on random interval schedules of reinforcement.

Learning as a Consequence of Selection
2002Since the end of the XIXth century, the influence of learning on natural selection has been considered. More recently, this influence has been investigated using computer simulations. However, it has not yet been shown how the ability of learning can be the product of natural selection. This point is precisely the subject of this paper.

Demographic Consequences of Natural Selection
1987From the standpoint of most people’s interests and perspectives, little need be added to the simple and elegant statement above. From the special perspective of a student of evolution, the statement seems a trifle parochial, and some qualifications and additions seem justified.

Canine fertility: The consequences of selection for special traits
Reproduction in Domestic Animals, 2020AbstractPedigree dogs and cats are bred aiming to conform breed standards with very poor consideration for breeding stock fertility. At the same time, the genetic asset underlining reproductive traits could be effectively analysed like in other species under selection.
