This is an introduction to this special issue on evolutionary psychology (EP) and evolutionary developmental psychology (EDP). We suggest here that, contrary to some common assumptions, mainstream psychology continues to be essentially non Darwinian and that EP and EDP are new approaches that can potentially help us to change this situation. We then present the organization of the special issue (composed of six papers). We conclude that evolution is certainly not the final consideration in psychology, but emphasize its importance as the basis upon which all modern behaviors and development are built.
这是一篇关于进化心理学（EP）和进化发展心理学（EDP）的特刊介绍。我们在这里建议，与一些常见的假设相反，主流心理学仍然基本上是非达尔文主义的，而 EP 和 EDP 是新的方法，有可能帮助我们改变这种情况。然后，我们介绍了特刊的组织（由六篇论文组成）。我们的结论是，进化当然不是心理学的最终考虑因素，但强调它作为所有现代行为和发展的基础的重要性。
