This newspaper comprehensive foreign media reported a new study revealed by the cooperation of Stanford University and the Institute of Saint -Philippines in the United States,Understanding the selection mechanism of human beings from the perspective of evolution is conducive to explaining the current people's choice。Recent,The results of this research are published bet365 Play online games in the journal of Evolution Anthropology。

James Holland Jones, a senior researcher at the Woods Institute of Stanford University, said,Compared with the practical perspective, the happiness and value brought by the selection,We can also think about how people choose from the perspective of evolution。According to the expected utility theory,People should carefully weigh the possibility of each incident,and the revenue or consequences of decision -making,Then select the option with the highest average return。Of course,People rarely calculate these average in practice。and,In many Bet365 lotto review public policies,There is still such a hypothesis,is when decision -making,We always maximize personal utility。but,These theories are sometimes difficult to cope with the choice of human beings in historical evolution,The choice determined by environmental variables that cannot be shaped by market forces。

Jones thinks,What we see now is a world of efficiency optimized,It is very vulnerable to risk influence,One serious heat wave、Drought、Cold currents or floods may cause individuals to disaster。From the perspective of natural selection and evolution,People’s choice Bet365 app download preferences,tend to underestimate possible long -term income,Be careful when things look risky,and the possibility of rare adverse consequences generally overestimated。This pessimist emotion is understandable。At the time scale of evolution,Each decision will eventually fall into its contribution to survival,The population ratio of the population with your gene。Different from pragmatism,Survival is a measure that will become more important with time changes。
