ARCH Equation: A General Model of Behavior Across Species

2025-04-09

Abstract excerpt

<p>This paper proposes a general law of behavioral dynamics—Behavior = Archetype × Drive × Culture (ARCH)—and evaluates its validity across a phylogenetic continuum, from unicellular organisms to humans. Drawing on comparative ethology, neurobiology, and behavioral ecology, the ARCH model conceptualizes behavior as the interaction of evolutionarily conserved scripts (Archetypes), internal physiological modulators...
