Evolutionary Psychology

First published Fri Feb 8, 2008
Evolutionary psychology is one of many biologically informed approaches to the study of human behavior. Along with cognitive psychologists, evolutionary psychologists propose that much, if not all, of our behavior can be explained by appeal to internal psychological mechanisms. What distinguishes evolutionary psychologists from many cognitive psychologists is the proposal that the relevant internal mechanisms are adaptations—products of natural selection—that helped our ancestors get around the world, survive and reproduce. To understand the central claims of evolutionary psychology we require an understanding of some key concepts in evolutionary biology, cognitive psychology, philosophy of science and philosophy of mind. Philosophers are interested in evolutionary psychology for a number of reasons. For philosophers of science —mostly philosophers of biology—evolutionary psychology provides a critical target. There is a broad consensus among philosophers of science that evolutionary psychology is a deeply flawed enterprise. For philosophers of mind and cognitive science evolutionary psychology has been a source of empirical hypotheses about cognitive architecture and specific components of that architecture. Philosophers of mind are also critical of evolutionary psychology but their criticisms are not as all-encompassing as those presented by philosophers of biology. Evolutionary psychology is also invoked by philosophers interested in moral psychology both as a source of empirical hypotheses and as a critical target.

Nex question for 10 points again!

Explain in your own words the meaning of "pakikisama" as a cultural value that we inherit from our peers?

Konsepto ng kapwa at pakikipagkapwa-tao ang pakikisama, pakikibagay, pakikisalamuha at iba pang mga lebel ng pakikipagkapwatao. It's also a form of conformity in which it is our tradtion as Filipinos na marunong tanong makisama sa kapwa...NO man is an island...so so must learned how ot makisama in order for you to belong in the community.

PAKIKISAMA sa Kapwa....Uso pa ba Philippines - 3110
