About evolutionary psychology flashcards
GoConqr OriginalWhat the Evolutionary Psychology flashcards cover
The decks offer questions and terms on topics across the unit. Chapter 2 Concepts includes natural selection, sexual selection, reciprocal altruism and theory of mind. Sexual Selection includes the sensory bias hypothesis and pre-copulatory intrasexual selection. Other decks focus on Buss or on Gardner and Gardner's work on animal communication.
Study with a deck
Start with Chapter 2 Concepts if you want to practice several core terms before choosing a narrower topic. Read each prompt, try to recall an answer, then check the card. Return to the terms you find harder to explain and practice them again.
For a study-focused deck, use Aims and Context Gardner and Gardner to check what you remember about the study's context. If you want to see ideas organized visually, switch to a mind map on the unit page. A quiz can provide another way to check your recall. Pick a topic and give a deck a try.
