| Research Abstract |
The aim of this project was l) to setup academic ground for newly found discipline of evolutionary psychology in Japan, and 2) to start empirical research in this field corroborating with Canadian counterparts. Thanks to supervising from Profs. Martin Daly and Margo. Wilson of McMaster University, we could mostly carry out above goal. Firstly, we founded the Evolution and Human Behavior Society in Japan (HBES-J) in September 1999, and held a first conference in December 1999. We published more than ten books related to Darwinian implication for social and psychological sciences. We also launched our empirical research on human behavior and evolution studies ; homicide study and behavioral ecological analysis of human death rate. Our results show that Japanese data of homicide and sex differences in death rate during the periods of 20ィイD1thィエD1 century well fit evolutionary predictions. We can conclude that Darwinian (or adaptational) approach is very important for understanding human nature.
