Hypotheses
- Cultures with non-classical polyandry tend to be small scale and egalitarian societies that produce food through hunting and gathering and horticulture (p. 161).Starkweather, Katherine E. - A survey of non-classical polyandry, 2012 - 4 Variables
This article explores determinants of non-classical polyandry, which the authors assert is more common than is usually conveyed. Results indicate that societies with non-classical polyandry tend to be small scale and egalitarian, practice hunting and gathering or horticulture, and have a male-skewed sex ratio. Overall polyandry is thought to add to the reproductive fitness of both men and women.
