| Abstract: |
The two-tiered life history model remains inadequate in addressing how social factors (particularly cultural norms and religious beliefs) interact with biological determinants to shape life history strategies. This limitation significantly constrains the model's explanatory power when applied to certain historical demographic phenomena. We recommend introducing a third explanatory framework (the cultural-institutional tier) to augment the two-tiered model. |
