The Behavioral Immune System (2015, result): “These results, along with those of Murray et al. (2013), are also complicated by interactions between experimental manipulations and chronic individual differences.”
The behavioral immune system: Current concerns and future directions (2018, background): “Consistent with this logic, interactive effects emerge for outcomes such as desire for future sexual variety, attitudes toward promiscuous sexual behavior, and self‐reported social surgency (Hill et al., 2015; Mortensen et al., 2010; Murray et al., 2013).”
Human pathogen avoidance adaptations (2016, background): “Some evidence supports this perspective, with more pathogen avoidant individuals being less open to sexual contact with multiple partners [12 ,41,43] and less open to sampling novel cuisines [7].”
Is the Relationship Between Pathogen Avoidance and Ideological Conservatism Explained by Sexual Strategies (2015, background): “Like others before us (Schaller & Murray, 2008; Murray et al., 2013), we suggest that investment in avoiding infectious disease also partially shapes sexual strategies.”
