Genetic similarity and facial cues for kin recognition in humans

2020-04-07

Abstract excerpt

Kin recognition is essential to the evolution of human cooperation, social organization, and altruistic behavior. However, the genetic underpinnings of kin recognition have been largely understudied. Facial resemblance is an important relatedness cue for humans and more closely related individuals are generally thought to share greater facial similarity. To evaluate the relationship between perceived self-resembla...
