| A fundamental assumption of all evolution-based human mating
theories is that mate preference and mating strategies evolved to solve
either the specific adaptive problems encountered by the ancestral
population or the specific selection pressures that occurred in the
environment of evolutionary adaptiveness (Buss, 1994; Symons, 1979;
Thornhill, 1997; Tooby & Cosmides, 1992). Carr-Chellman & Duchastel (2000) suggest two facets of
cognitive processes existing in the web learning: engagement (initiating
and pursuing the interaction) and adaptiveness (enabling access to just
the right information that is needed). For instance, the lack of adaptiveness (situation
specificity) and the Independence which was lower than expected are
quite striking. |
