Testing Mealey's model: The need to demonstrate an ESS and to establish the role of testosterone
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 February 2010
Abstract
Two specific aspects of Mealey's model are questioned: (1) the application of the concept of Evolutionarily Stable Strategy to all alternative strategies, including those that involve reduced lifetime reproductive success; and (2) the evidence for the dual role of testosterone, which is based mainly on studies of a modulating effect on aggression.
