Undoubtedly, Darwin had a large impact on psychology. This influence began immediately after the Origin of Species had been published, and has continued across the 20th century, when evolutionary theory has been enriched with a lot of exact explanatory models and research findings. These explanations imply new approaches and theoretical frameworksfor psychologists who are, in general, open to the evolutionary interpretations of human behavior. However, the relationship between evolutionary theory and psychology also implies certain disputes and debates about, among others, the behavioral outputs of natural selection, the ways of comparisons with animals, and the possibilities of confirming the theory. In the present paper I show some details concerning these debates, emphasizing that the endeavor to solve these problems may facilitate the further development of Darwinism.

This theoretical article first highlights the need for the study of depression, due its increasing occurrence and impact on life. Then it describes its causes through traditional paradigms and also shows the possibility to enrich the traditional perceptions of the causes of major depressive disorder with the insight applying ideas of evolutionary psychology into the area of self-regulation. Thus it is possible to perceive depression as evolutionary advantage that extends the capabilities of adaptation and therefore improves the quality of life. From a scientific perspective, this view can lead to a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of depression as a disorder. Based on these findings practical and theoretical implementation is discussed.

Tento teoretický príspevok v úvode poukazuje na potrebu štúdia depresie kvôli nárastu jej výskytu a vplyvu na život. Následne popisuje príčiny jej vzniku prostredníctvom tradičných škôl a tiež poukazuje, ako by bolo možné obohatiť bežné a tradičné vnímanie príčin depresívnej poruchy o pohľad, ktorý aplikuje myšlienky evolučnej psychológie do oblasti sebaregulácie. Takto je možné vnímať depresiu ako evolučnú výhodu, ktorá rozširuje možnosti adaptácie, a tak zvyšuje kvalitu života. Z vedeckého pohľadu tento pohľad môže viesť k hlbšiemu a komplexnejšiemu pochopeniu depresie ako poruchy. Na základe týchto poznatkov diskutujeme, ako by bolo možné použiť tieto poznatky na teoretickej a praktickej úrovni.

To begin with, a hypothesis is made regarding the possibility of treating imitation as a key mechanism in the induction of trance states. The author argues that this thesis can be justified convincingly on the basis of empirical material collected by researchers of shamanism. The theories of religion formulated by evolutionary psychologists place emphasis on the origins of religious concepts. However, they leave aside the question of ritual, and also do not permit a more thorough study of the mechanisms generating a ritual trance state. In order to analyse the cognitive aspects of trance, it is therefore necessary to construct a different theoretical model.

The aim of the present paper is the analysis of old nicknames which relate to the way in which our ancestors communicated. The subject of the analysis are proprial items, which were formed in order to indicate if the speakers were telling the truth, or whether they were gossiping, or saying too much, as well as items which evaluated a person because of articulatory features. The present paper is also an attempt to propose research into axiologically marked appelative anthroponyms within the methodology of cultural linguistics, complemented with biological contexts, especially research from the field of evolutionary psychology and biological anthropology.

Recent evolutionary experimental psychological research found that high verbal proficiency (VP) increased the perceived attractiveness of individuals (more so for males than females), especially in the context of a long-term relationship. Our study had the objective of replicating and extending this research. Similar to previous studies, audio files in which speakers performed scripted self-presentations that had equal content but varied on VP were used as stimuli for opposite-sex participants. VP was found to increase attractiveness ratings. The effects were mostly small for numerous variables relating to short-term mating, whereas they were moderate to large for long-term mating. Our participants attributed more future income, but not more total number of mates to speakers with higher VP. Female menstrual cycle effects on attractiveness ratings were not found. Contrary to former research, being more verbally proficient was not found to be more beneficial for one sex over the other.

The phenomenon of globalization, which is well known in the economy, can nowadays be observed also in the area of science. It is based on the fact that more and more scientific disciplines are applying the same explanatory principle, namely the theory of evolution. Therefore, every development, including that of man, according to the pattern of genetic reproduction, takes place on the basis of natural selection. With psychological properties, mental abilities and social behaviours, which are eloquently referred to as “memes”, it is as with genes: only those that are better, stronger, more capable of surviving will survive after accidental changes and only they will be passed on. In short, reproduction regulates and controls human behaviour. Such a way of thinking and explanation can be found today in many publications on sociobiology and evolutionary psychology. Even if they present many new details, they pay tribute to the old human desire to explain everything in a simple way, according to the same scheme. The same expectation towards science was expressed by E. Haeckel in the 19th century and J. Monod in the 20th century. However, when these two biologists explained man as a whole based on the theory of evolution, they admitted that they referred to philosophy, to which contemporary representatives of sociobiology and evolutionary psychology cannot or do not want to confess.

Trivers (1974) argued that offspring demand much more parental investment than parents want to give. This conflict of interest stems from a genetic conflict. Parents are genetically equally related to all of their offspring (the coefficient of relatedness r = 0.5; children share 50% genes of each of parents) and, for the parents, they present the same value as the “vehicle” of their genes. For this reason, parents are selected to balance investment among their offspring. For the offspring, it is a different standpoint: for each “full” sibling (r = 0.5) its value is twice as much to the other sibling (because it has 100% of its own genes, and the second sibling shares only 50% of its genes), and its value is fourfold higher than the value of a half-sibling (r = 0.25). The “selfish” children, driven by their own genetic interest, try to obtain more parental investment than their parents intend to provide, even at their siblings’ disadvantage. In this situation, a parent–offspring conflict arises that concerns the distribution of parental investment, and what is important, one can expect a sibling rivalry for these resources. In this paper the social and psychological consequences of parent – offspring conflict are discussed: i.a. infanticide, mate preference conflict, sibling rivalry and allomothering as a way in which parent–offspring can be reduced.

Fear is one of the factors that is most life threatening. it causes psychogenic illness, pro- ducing tension in the mind and in addition, distorting a person’s morals. The ambition of this paper is to outline the evolutionary processes that throughout the history of the human race have influenced the development of human thought, feeling, effect, and therefore fear as well. it further describes fear not just as genetic information, but also as information mediated by the social community and groups, as a phenomenon influenced by cultural environment.

Considerable attention is paid to issue of things at the present time. The new Czech Civil Code (NOZ) introduces big changes, one of these changes is definition of things „in a wide-ranging way“, including introducing the term of things we cannot touch (res incorporales of Roman Law). In this context, the particular importance has the concept of animal. The article examines the concept of animal in the Czech and Roman Law, especially relationship between man and dog. The legal regime of a dog in the Roman Law and in the present Czech Law is significantly different. The Roman Law considered the dog as a thing and dogs in Roma had the same status as other things (including slaves). The article deals with the legal status of dogs as things, masteręs responsibility for a damage caused by their dog (actio de pauperiae). In the Czech Law in contrary, an animal does not have the status of thing, but „entity“, that is different. However, dogs in ancient Rome had the special status as well as in the Czech Republic nowadays. In Rome, dogs were considered as an example of fidelity (canis fidelis), dogs were not only hunting companions, but also pets (pets). Dogs were provided with special care by doctors-specialists, we have preserved statues of dogs and their image on headstones, together with their masters. We can find the same status of dogs also in life of present-day Czechs who invest large sums in the health care for dogs, in their diet and even in their look. Then we can see that despite the different legislation in the Czech Republic and in ancient Rome, the position of man and dog is very similar, despite all the social and cultural differences. The article deals with the matter of roots of such position. It seeks the answer by means of evolution psychology in human race prehistory. The close relationship to the dogs is given by the fact that dogs were the first domesticated animals. The article describes the process of domestication when dogs became guards of prehistoric peopleęs home, as well as their companions on hunting. This is how the strong bond between man and dog was created and it continues until these days.

The Action–Trait theory of human motivation posits that individual differences in predispositional traits of action may account for variance in contemporary purposeful human behavior. Prior research has supported the theory, psychometric properties of scales designed to assess the motive dimensions of the theory, and the utility of these scales to predict an array of behaviors, but this is the first study to evaluate the cross-linguistical invariance of the 15-factor theoretical model. This study evaluated translations of the English language 60-item Quick AIM in 5 samples – Croatian (N = 614), French (N = 246), German (N = 154), Polish (M = 314), and U.S. English (N = 490) – recruited from 4 countries (Croatia, Poland, Switzerland, and the U.S.). Exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) supported the theoretical model on which the traits of action are based and scrutinized the measurement invariance (configural, metric, scalar invariance) of the scale across the languages.

The conditions of imprisonment in Polish prisons make it difficult to achieve the goals of penitentiary social rehabilitation. Adaptation to prison conditions, which occurs especially as a result of long-term stay in a closed-type prison, results in disadaptation to the conditions in freedom and usually leads to degradation of the prisoner’s personality. An important reason for this is the unnaturalness of a environment. It is almost totally incompatible with human nature due to its radical difference from the environment in which the human mind evolved. In the article, the authors present an initial evolutionary oriented diagnosis of environmental factors responsible for low effectiveness of penitentiary social rehabilitation. The article contains also suggestions of modifications that may increase the level of its effectiveness.

The article reacts to a critical evaluation of the cognitive revolution which Jaroslav Peregrin has presented (The Cognitive Counterrevolution?, Filosofie dnes, 4, 2012, No. 1, pp. 19-35). According to Peregrin the cognitive revolution has thrown open a Pandora’s box of naive mentalistic theories and variations on Cartesian dualism (“magical theories of the mind”), which “do not belong to science, nor even to sensible philosophy”. Although I agree with the rejection of magical theories of the mind, I attempt to show that the cognitive turn in the 50’s and 60’s of the last century is susceptible of a quite different interpretation, according to which cognitive science, as a result of its basic assumptions and methodology, does not imply or propagate any kind of Cartesian dualism, rather it explicitly denies the possibility of such an account of the relation between mind and body.

Consumer society has undergone various transformations in terms of group and social behaviors. Body estheticization is undoubtedly one of the essential phenomena involved. It depends on the improvement of the bodilyfeatures in order to increase its esthetic values, i.e. transformation of the body into a work of art. Body estheticization is characterized by complex factors such as: reliance on the established patterns of beauty promoted by media. The article assumes that beauty may be perceived not only from the socio-cultural perspective but also as an evolutionary phenomenon. In the light of the course of evolution, people has developed a mechanism of sexual selection which facilitatedthe choice of the right candidate on the basis of the essential parameters including:existence, survival and reproductive success. Among other mechanisms, the external appearance, beauty, body and its predispositions have become symbols of beneficial genes, used alsoas a particular kind of information for representatives of the opposite sex. The article discusses the evolutionary foundation of beauty and beauty standards, in particular: the cult of youth, beautiful body and its predispositions, which constitute a connection between evolutionary psychology, socio-biology and body estheticization.

Motywacja: Coraz częściej zwraca się uwagę na to, że stosunki gospodarcze wpływają na sposób kształtowania się relacji społecznych, m.in. poprzez występowanie zjawiska strategicznego dobierania znajomych, aby uzyskać przewagę na rynku pracy, co prowadzi do erozji relacji międzyludzkich. Cel: Celem artykułu jest weryfikacja empiryczna teorii tłumaczących liczebność znajomych, których posiadają jednostki. Ma to służyć sprawdzeniu czy faktycznie czynniki ekonomiczne można uznać za istotne w kształtowaniu się rozmiarów sieci społecznych oraz czy można obwiniać system gospodarczy za postępującą atomizację społeczeństwa. Materiały i metody: W artykule użyto metody ekonometryczne dla zmiennych licznikowych, stosowane na mikrodanych. W szczególności zastosowano regresję ujemną dwumianową z logarytmiczną funkcją łączącą. Wyniki: Wykazano brak istotnego wpływu czynników ekonomiczno-społecznych na kształtowanie się rozmiaru grup społecznych. Wyniki wskazują z kolei na istotny wpływ czynników ewolucyjnych i zwykłej częstotliwości wchodzenia w interakcje z ludźmi.

Motivation: Increasingly noted phenomenon is the impact of economics on social relations, for example due to existence of strategic networking between individuals, to gain advantage at labour market. It is believed to lead to erosion of interpersonal relations. Aim: The aim of the article was empirical verification of main theories concerning the size of social networks of individuals. It is to the point of verification whether economic factors influence construction of the social networks of individuals, and whether we are justified in blaming the economic system for progressing atomization of society. Materials and methods: For verification of theories, the econometric methods for count data, used on microdata were applied. More specifically, a negative binomial regression with a logarithmic link function was used. Results: There was no significant impact of socioeconomic factors on size of social groups. The results imply instead significant impact of evolutionary and chance factors.

Artykuł jest próbą analizy możliwości wykorzystania osiągnięć psychologii ewolucyjnej do argumentacji na rzecz rozwiązań stosowanych na gruncie prawa kanonicznego. Psychologia ewolucyjna jest stosunkowo młodą nauką, która zajmuje się badaniem natury człowieka i wyjaśnianiem jego zachowań, przyjmując jako założenie podstawowe hipotezę ewolucji. Współcześnie jest ona coraz częściej wykorzystywana do analizowania instytucji prawa świeckiego oraz do formułowania szczegółowych postulatów dotyczących rozstrzygnięć prawnych. Prawo kanoniczne jest zaś prawem Kościoła Rzymskokatolickiego, które przynależy do jego istoty i służy kształtowaniu relacji pomiędzy jego członkami. Wychodząc od przedstawienia źródeł prawa kanonicznego, artykuł wskazuje niezbędne warunki, jakie musiałaby spełnić psychologia ewolucyjna, aby jej osiągnięcia mogły znaleźć zastosowanie w argumentacji kanonistycznej w ograniczonym zakresie dotyczącym prawa natury.

The article is an attempt to analyze the possibility of adapting the achievements of evolutionary psychology in argumentation for the canon law regulations. Evolutionary psychology is a later science which studies human nature and explains human behaviors on the grounds of evolution hypothesis. Nowadays, it is even more frequently used in appraising secular law institutions and in formulating detailed postulates of legal decisions. Canon law is the law of the Roman Catholic Church, an immanent part of its structure, and it regulates the relationships among its members. Having presented the sources of canon law, the article briefly shows the necessary conditions for applying the achievements of evolutionary psychology to canon law, however, useful only in a narrow range of the laws of nature.

In this article, the model of an inconsistent mind according to suggestions of Hilary Putnam and Alan Turing is presented from the perspective of the cognitive sciences and the evolutionary psychology. An attempt to reconcile the two versions of the modular model of mind by Jerry Fodor and Steven Pinker is undertaken followed by the discussion of the problem of evolutionary origin of mind. Next, the problem of the central module (interface) is considered which is supposed to integrate the individual and specialized modules of mind. The main thesis of this article states that the ‘global’ inconsistency of mind may result from the inconsistencies among ‘local’ computational modules of mind. Mind may be modeled as an inconsistent formal system which remains non-trivial. Consequently, it seems rational to postulate that the operation of mind is not based on the classical Aristotelian logic and is better described the systems of a paraconsistent logic. Best examples of such logical systems include the discussive logic by Stanisław Jaśkowski, the logic of formal inconsistency (LFI) by Newton da Costa and the many-valued logic by Jan Łukasiewicz and Graham Priest.

The aim of the article is to consider the philosophical consequences of the evolutionary paradigm in mind examination and to examine some methodological problems connected with evolutionary explanations. The article consists of four parts. The theory of evolution and contemporary controversies related to it are outlined in the first part. The second concerns the evolutionary paradigm applied to mind examination, especially from the methodological perspective. The third is entirely dedicated to an analysis of the philosophical consequences of the evolutionary paradigm, and the last is a summary. The result is the recognition of the evolutionary paradigm as an interesting perspective, which doesn’t demand far-reaching ontological assumptions, which allows for the rejection of some views concerning the mind-body problem. But the evolutionary paradigm cannot be the only universal paradigm, and some of the evolutionary explanations are nothing more than hypotheses or speculations.

Celem artykułu jest rozważenie filozoficznych konsekwencji, jakie niesie za sobą przyjęcie paradygmatu ewolucyjnego w badaniach nad umysłem, a także zbadanie metodologicznych trudności związanych z generowaniem wyjaśnień ewolucyjnych. Artykuł składa się z czterech części. W pierwszej zarysowana zostaje teoria ewolucji i współczesne kontrowersje wokół niej, w szczególności wokół jej statusu. W drugiej omawia się paradygmat ewolucyjny w badaniach nad umysłem, a także pewne aspekty metodologiczne z nim związane. Trzecia poświęcona jest analizie filozoficznych konsekwencji przyjęcia paradygmatu ewolucyjnego, a czwarta stanowi próbę oceny jego głównych wad i zalet, z odniesieniem do przyszłości badań nad umysłem i dociekań z zakresu filozofii umysłu. Rezultatem jest stwierdzenie, że paradygmat ewolucyjny stanowi interesującą perspektywę badawczą, nie nakładającą zbytnich zobowiązań ontologicznych i pozwalającą na odrzucenie niektórych stanowisk odnoszących się do problemu psychofizycznego. Jednakże ze względu na trudności metodologiczne nie może być to paradygmat jedyny i uniwersalny, a do wielu wyjaśnień ewolucyjnych należy podchodzić z odpowiednią rezerwą.

Celem niniejszego opracowania jest analiza argumentu zdrowia publicznego w kontekście debaty nad legalizacją miękkich narkotyków. W pierwszej części przybliżona zostaje treść pojęć, które występują w kontekście prezentowanego tematu. Na dalszych stronach przedstawiona zostaje analiza pojęcia zdrowia publicznego występującego w terminologii prawniczej. Analiza funkcjonowania tego pojęcia oraz argumentów budowanych na jego podstawie prowadzi do wniosku, że argument ze sfery zdrowia publicznego w dyskusji nad legalizacją miękkich narkotyków jest mało przekonywający oraz brakuje mu solidnej teoretycznej podbudowy. Mimo to zdrowie publiczne wciąż pozostaje jednym z najczęściej podnoszonych argumentów w dyskursie narkotykowym, w ostatniej części pracy – w oparciu o badania J. Haida z zakresu psychologii moralności − przedstawione zostaje możliwe wyjaśnienie faktu, dlaczego argument ze sfery zdrowia publicznego cieszy się nieustającą popularnością.

The purpose of the present text is to provide analysis of the public health argument in the context of the debate over legalisation of soft narcotics. The first part provides an explanation of the terms used, followed by an analysis of the term ‘public health’ in the legal terminology. The analysis of this termand the arguments built on that basis leads to a conclusion that the public health argument in the discussion about legalisation of soft narcotics is little convincing and lacks a sound, theoretical basis. Despite the fact that public health remains among the arguments most often raised in the narcotics discourse, in the final part of this work – drawing on the study of J. Haid in the area of psychology of morality – a possible explanation is presented as to why the argument of public health remains popular.

Language does not leave a fossil we can put under a microscope; there is no living witness to its origin, early functions and its stages of evolution. Thus, the study of language origin and development is based mostly on speculations or guesses we need to take in order to see the big picture and to try to solve some of the greatest mysteries of human history – a jigsaw puzzle made out of millions of pieces scattered around the world. So as to fully explore and grasp the notion of language, it appears fundamental to start from dissecting and putting under a microscope all components, properties, processes and manifestations of language, a selection of which has been offered throughout this paper. There are very few certainties in this field; however, it has been established that certain properties and aspects of language had to coincide for it to originate, viz. the descent of the larynx, the growth and reshaping of the brain and skull, changes of speech apparatus and finally the emergence of syntax. First though, a collective shift in thinking must have occurred, generating the mental readiness for language capacity and the need to expand the existing communication system. Once the requirement was established, human anatomy must have eventually followed. Consequently, the process of externalization was activated, engineered by the consistent and coherent socio-cultural transmission, which redesigned human interaction, communication and social organisation. Scientific evidence, presented in this paper, suggests that language could not have emerged as a result of a sudden shift, on the contrary, it must have been a result of complex processes, mental and biological on one level and social and psychological on the other.

Niniejszy artykuł poświęcony został analizie poglądów dotyczących płci i ról płciowych w ujęciu Karola Darwina i jego następców działających w różnych obszarach nauki. Problem „natura czy kultura” w tym dyskursie jest problemem podstawowym. W artykule zaprezentowano również argumenty krytyczne wobec teorii ewolucyjnych podnoszone przez grono badaczek feministek. Przedstawiono, jak ta krytyka wpłynęła na ewolucję poglądów ewolucjonistów: od samego K. Darwina poprzez badaczy zakotwiczonych w takich dziedzinach nauki, jak: zoopsychologia, etologia, socjobiologia, aż do psychologii ewolucyjnej. Pracę wieńczy podsumowanie, w którym zaprezentowano argumenty obrazujące możliwe połączenie poglądów prezentowanych przez nauki ewolucyjne ze stanowiskiem feministycznym na temat płci oraz możliwe przyszłe drogi rozwoju tych stanowisk.

The main goal of this article is the analysis of sex/gender and its roles in terms of Charles Darwin’s and his successors’ theories. The problem of ‘nature vs. culture’ in this discourse is fundamental and I refer to it. I also present the critical arguments against evolutionary theories raised by feminists. It is also presented how this criticism influenced rethinking sex/gender from anevolutionary perspective: from Darwin himself through zoopsychology, ethology, sociobiology to evolutionary psychology. The arguments illustrating whether it is possible to combine the views presented by feminists and evolutionary science about sex/gender are presented. Finally, I wonder if it is possible to put a sign of equality between nature and culture in the context of human sexuality.
