Romantic love evolved by co-opting mother-infant bonding
For 25 years, the predominant evolutionary theory of romantic love has been Fisher's
theory of independent emotion systems. That theory suggests that sex drive, romantic
attraction (romantic love), and attachment are associated with distinct�…

A hypothalamic perspective of human socioemotional behavior
Historical evidence from stimulation and lesion studies in animals and humans
demonstrated a close association between the hypothalamus and typical and
atypical socioemotional behavior. A central hypothalamic contribution to regulation of�…

Consensus Paper: Cerebellum and Reward
Cerebellum is a key-structure for the modulation of motor, cognitive, social and
affective functions, contributing to automatic behaviours through interactions with the
cerebral cortex, basal ganglia and spinal cord. The predictive mechanisms used by�…

The impact of romantic relationships on deception detection: Exploring the gender differences and the mediating role of mentalizing
In evolution, romantic relationships serve as the foundation for breeding and
producing offspring. The ability to detect deception in these relationships can
safeguard the investment and cultivation of descendants, leading to greater chances�…

Mate value moderates the influence of perceived sex ratio on mental health outcomes.
Mate value (MV) and the availability of potential mates have been found to influence
mate attraction strategies and relationship-related attitudes, yet there is a dearth of
evidence assessing how these factors influence well-being. This study examined�…

User-Defined Relationships: Exploring the Dynamics of Attachment Style and Motives, Activities, and Outcomes of Social Network Sites
The rise of social network sites (SNSs) provided users with new ways to initiate and
maintain personal relationships. Numerous functions (eg, messaging, sharing, and
reacting on content) allow for social interaction customized to distinct relationship�…

Toward consistent reporting of sample characteristics in studies investigating the biological mechanisms of romantic love
In this non-systematic review, we consider the sample reporting practices of 42
studies up to and including 2021 investigating the biological mechanisms of romantic
love (ie, 31 neuroimaging studies, nine endocrinological studies, one genetics study�…

The evolution of mate attachment
Whether natural selection leads to attachment in monogamous pair bonds has
seldom been addressed. Operationally defining attachment as a behavioral modifier
that decreases divorce probability with pair duration, we develop a model for the�…
