Proposing the Communicate Bond Belong Theory: Evolutionary Intersections With Episodic Interpersonal Communication (2017, background): “emotional and social bonding (Ainsworth, 1989) and other valued and observable characteristics (Hall, 2011; Tooby & Cosmides, 1996).”
Friendship standards: The dimensions of ideal expectations (2012, methodology): “In accordance with Hall (2011), results indicate that males were more likely to have higher expectations of agency (i.e., wealth, fitness, connections) than females, although the effect sizes of the present investigation were slightly smaller than those estimated by Hall.”
Competitive reputation manipulation: Women strategically transmit social information about romantic rivals (2018, background): “Furthermore, women's friendships are characterized by more self-disclosure and social discussions than men's (Hall, 2011; Vigil, 2007).”
Sex differences and the own-gender bias in face recognition: A meta-analytic review (2013, background): “…social networks (Wethington, McLeod, & Kessler, 1987), and have higher expectations of intimacy, self-disclosure, and commitment on friendship relations than men (Hall, 2011; Rose & Rudolph, 2006), also seem to indicate that women may have more individuation experience with female than male faces.”
Gender Rules: Same- and Cross-Gender Friendships Norms (2012, unknown): “According to Hall (2011), the findings support evolutionary theory (e.g., Bleske and Buss 2000), suggesting that females develop elevated communion expectations due to their relatively extensive investment in offspring, and their need to maintain female coalitions to assist in rearing children.”
