Cultural Evolutionary Behavioral Science

Our psychology and behavior are shaped by millions of years of genetic evolution, thousands of years of cultural evolution, and a short lifetime of experience. Dual inheritance theory describes how genes, culture, and individual learning interact to shape our behavior, explaining how we evolved as a cultural species, how culture itself evolves, and how culture-gene coevolution has shaped our psychology and physiology. Much of our behavior is shaped by culture — the values, beliefs, behaviors, norms, skills, know-how, and technologies each of us possesses. Dual inheritance theory and cultural evolution, therefore, offer a framework for understanding and changing behavior. 我们的心理和行为是由数百万年的遗传进化、数千年的文化进化以及短暂的一生的经验所塑造的。双重遗传理论描述了基因、文化和个人学习如何相互作用来塑造我们的行为,解释了我们如何作为一个文化物种进化,文化本身如何进化,以及文化-基因共同进化如何塑造了我们的心理和生理。我们的大部分行为是由文化塑造的–我们每个人拥有的价值观、信仰、行为、规范、技能、知识和技术。因此,双重遗传理论和文化进化提供了一个理解和改变行为的框架。
