Abstract

The ratio of males to females in a population is known to influence the behaviour, life histories and demography of animals. A recent experimental study finds that sex ratio also affects human economic behaviour, and in a manner consistent with evolutionary theory.

摘要

人口中男性与女性的比例被认为会影响动物的行为、生活史和种群动态。最近的一项实验研究发现，性别比例也会影响人类的经济行为，且这种影响与进化理论一致。
