A Life History of Human Foraging in 39 Societies

Explore a comprehensive analysis of human foraging across 39 diverse societies in this hour-long seminar presented by Richard McElreath at IMC Aarhus in May 2017. Delve into the intricacies of long-form adaptation, examine the borderlands of human foraging, and understand the goals and sample of the study. Discover the pre-specified model used and how it transitions from skill to production. Investigate the simple yet massively multilevel model applied to complex data, and learn about the methodology and outcomes of the research. Gain insights into an average foraging site, identify general patterns, and explore variations among different societies. Conclude with an outlook on the future implications of this extensive study on human foraging behaviors.
