Wybór partnera – perspektywa ewolucyjna
Chosing partner – perspective of the evolutionary

Summary/Abstract: Sexual selection theory as well as parental investment theory have guided much of the evolutionary psychological research on human mating. Based on these theories, researchers have predicted and found sex differences in mating preferences and behaviors. Strategies and preferences of men and women looking for a mate determine behavior of the potential partner. Men generally prefer that their long-term partners are youthful and physically attractive. Men, in particular, engage in behaviors designed to prevent and anticipate their partner's sexual infidelity. Women generally prefer that their long-term partners are at good health, have existing resources or clear potential for securing resources and display a willingness to invest those resources in children the relationship might produce.
