I had a great time at HBES 2025 @humbehevosoc.bsky.social! I presented my work on a method we developed that allows us to predict who people will choose as partners 3 months into the future—participants chose romantic partners on their own, in their own mating markets—with zero intervention from us!

Come see me at HBES this week! I'll be talking about my work with @dconroybeam.bsky.social simulating mate choice in Nepali arranged marriages. Saturday at 9:50.

Super interesting research by @bengelbart.bsky.social: "Love may not operate as a commitment device in the classic sense: Rather than disincentivizing one's own pursuit of alternatives, acts of love may disincentivize alternatives from pursuing oneself." www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

🚨New paper! I tackle a confound in mate preference research: Are preferences & standards driven by one's own sex or target sex? Two studies show preferences are (mostly) driven by own sex, but overall standards are driven by target sex. Full paper: doi.org/10.1177/0956... #MatePreferences #Research
