Subject:

Description:

In this course we will examine patterns of human attraction, using an evolutionary perspective to better understand mate choice. In the first unit, we will explore the roles of biology versus culture in human behavior. Next, we will address female attraction and attempt to determine whether women prefer "nice guys" or "bad boys." In the final unit, students will have an opportunity to undertake independent research as they explore the nature of male attraction.
