A bully asserting their dominance on the playground or in the high school halls is likely to have more children in adulthood than their peers, new Brock University research has shown.
I didn’t change the title, but without access to the original article, it seems like a correlation not causation.
“This study shows us that bullying seems to be associated with some meaningful outcomes that help explain why kids do it,” Volk says. “This isn’t just ‘broken kids’ doing bad behavior; it’s getting them important things that matter.”
Yeah, same as bandits.
Volk says the results support the idea that adolescent bullying is, at least in part, an evolutionary adaptation that may help individuals pass on their genes to future generations.
Is this evopsych bullshit?
Yeah, same as bandits.
Yep, evopsych bullshit.
At least they managed to avoid mentioning “modules”.
Wouldn’t surprise me. Unfortunately the study is behind a paywall.
