BEHAVIORAL AND BRAIN SCIENCES

Variability in how people seek significance and fall in love. Are merit and appreciation instrumental aims? The essential roots of love. Relationships do not depend on prior knowledge, instead knowledge develops within relationships. The evolution and development of infant social relationship reasoning: a Tinbergenian analysis. Moral somatic marker: new directions for the mechanisms underlying morality in preverbal infants. Perceptual-cue-based mechanisms for recognizing social agents and their roles in social interactions. Early developmental origins of social knowledge. Cognitive primitives, learning, and the structure of early social relationship cognition. Affordance management's cultural-ecological extensions outside of the West. A contingency management framework of ecological affordances across the lifespan. Affordances are for life (and not just for maximizing reproductive fitness). Two ecological approaches in social psychology. From screens to green: Digital and natural environments as ecological affordances across childhood, mating, and parenting stages. Managing affordances in a complex world depends on social and cultural factors. Tracking affordances requires a sophisticated model of life stages, phases, and transitions. Distinguishing regulatory variables and ecological affordances: Prioritizing goals versus implementing action. Ecological affordances across life stages and evolutionary mismatch: hormonal contraceptives as an illustrative example. From life stages to micro-events: Ecological psychology and affordance management. The missing ecology in affordance management. Ecological affordances change with the seasons. Affordances, culture, and consciousness. Extending affordance management to late adulthood: a critical gap target. The mind's compass: semantic control as the guiding mechanism of affordance management. A constraint-based approach to ecological affordances. Neuroplasticity in changing ecologies. Digital environments reshaping children's ecological affordance management: Hybrid ecologies, parallel strategies, and environmental shaping. Affordances and development: Distinguishing ecological and standard evolutionary psychology approaches. Affordances in social ecologies: A biological markets extension. Rethinking cognitive recalibration: Integrating AI into the management of affordances across the life-stages. Violence is not a monolith: Ecologies of threat and their psychological signatures. An evolutionary model of human development based on reproduction goals is neither evolutionary nor developmental. A psychology of ecology or a psychology of groups? Ecological affordances as stages for trait expression. What do we perceive when we think about perception? Affordances and life history complexity. Personality adaptively mediates ecological affordances and behavior across the lifespan. Extending ecological affordance theory to late adulthood. Ecological affordances across the lifespan: Refinements and Extensions through interdisciplinary perspectives. Reassessing romantic dependency: Gendered vulnerabilities and cultural realities beyond the Western lens. A matter of context: Gender differences vary across life stage, historical context, and individual characteristics. The asymmetric structure of male-female bonding explains gender differences in relationship dependence. Considering error management theory can provide a more comprehensive model as to why romantic relationships matter more to men than women. Profound romantic relationships matter more to women than to men. Partner-serving moral cognition helps men to maintain romantic relationships from which they benefit more than women. Testing sex differences in the relationship context needs the inclusion of gay and lesbian couples. Do romantic relationships matter more to men than to women? An evolutionary psychology perspective. Parenthood as an inflection point for men and women's patterns of interdependence. Who benefits most from romantic relationships and who bears the burdens? The support-deficit perspective is now the parsimonious explanation for gender differences in human mating.
