• The dirty dozen: a concise measure of the dark triad. (2010, background): “From an adaptionist perspective (D. M. Buss, 2009), men should benefit more from social exploitation (D. M. Buss & Duntley, 2008) and therefore should have higher scores on personality traits that reflect social exploitation.”
• The costs and benefits of the Dark Triad : implications for mate poaching and mate retention tactics (2010, background): “Exploitation may be one means that individuals can solve adaptive tasks like mating (Buss & Duntley, 2008) and simply extracting resources from one’s environment more effectively where individuals are guarded and often punish free riders (Jonason et al., in press).”
• The mate switching hypothesis (2017, background): “In the modern environment, the existence of ‘revenge porn’websites inwhich people post nude photos or videos of their exes provides a testament to the strength of the motivation some have to avenge an unwanted breakup, possibly sending a signal to others of non-exploitability (Buss & Duntley, 2008).”
• The evolution of intimate partner violence (2011, background): “They also include exploitative tactics by which people extort resources through deception, manipulation, coercion, intimidation, or violence (Buss & Duntley, 2008).”
• Evolutionary Psychology and Feminism (2011, background): “Indeed, one of us has proposed an alternative evolutionary explanation of the findings—that the ovulation shifts reflect the fact that women actually become more reproductively valuable at ovulation (Buss and Shackelford 2008).”
