- Conjugal instability will be related to uterine biases in the flow of altruism (448).Flinn, Mark V. - Uterine vs. agnatic kinship variability and associated cousin marriage prefe..., 1981 - 2 Variables
This study discusses many variables that may influence the direction of altruism within a family. Significant relationships were found between paternity certainty, conjugal instability, marital residence, cross-cousin marriage preferences, and direction of altruistic behavior. Special emphasis is placed on the importance of the mother's brother.

This study focuses on preferences for thinness or fatness in women cross-culturally. Results contradict previous studies and the hypothesis that preference for fatness in women is predicted by resource scarcity. Alternative explanations for valuation of fatness are explored, including climate and male dominance.
