  1. There will be more societies in which males gamble than societies in which females gamble (350).Gray, Peter B. - Evolutionary and cross-cultural perspectives on gambling, 2004 - 2 Variables

    This study uses evolutionary theory to hypothesize about the association between age, gender, and gambling. Results suggest that males are more frequent and riskier gamblers than females and that young adults are more likely to have gambling problems than people of other age classes.

  7. There will be a relationship between drunkenness and the following measures of orality: age of weaning, oral socialization anxiety, oral satisfaction, oral explanations of illness, oral therapies, food taboos during pregnancies, feasts or food taboos during mourning" (69)Field, Peter B. - A new cross-cultural study of drunkenness, 1962 - 8 Variables

    This book chapter builds on Horton's 1943 psychoanalytical study of drunkenness. The author tests an overall theory that drunkenness, which facilitates personal and uninhibited interactions, is more acceptable, and therefore prevalent, in societies with loose, rather than rigid, social relationships. Indicators of social rigidity, such as strict socialization or male dominance through patrilocality, are tested for relationships to drunkenness.

  8. The socialization of female children is accomplished more easily than the socialization of males (4).Welch, Michael R. - Sex differences in the ease of socialization: an analysis of the efficiency ..., 1981 - 7 Variables

    This study examines differences in the ease of socialization for male and female children in preindustrial societies. Results support the hypothesis that the socialization of females is accomplished more easily than the socialization of males.

  9. More polygyny will be associated with training boys to strive more (p. 312).Low, Bobbi S. - Cross-cultural patterns in the training of children: an evolutionary perspective, 1989 - 3 Variables

    This article offers a behavioral ecological approach to the study of child training practicies. Gender differences in child training are discussed in light of evolutionary theory, and the author suggests training is likely tailored to promote the reproductive success of each gender. Generally, boys are trained to be more aggressive, stronger, and self-reliant; girls are trained to be more hard-working, responsible, obedient, and sexually restrained. Gender differences in child training frequently vary with degree of polygyny and/or social stratification in a society.
