1. Kin Recognition and Human Facial Resemblance

2. Why Recognize Kin? Mate Choice (avoid inbreeding) Mate Choice (avoid inbreeding) Inclusive Fitness (favour kin) Inclusive Fitness (favour kin)

3. Relatives other than your direct offspring can share your genes. Helping them to reproduce can increase your own fitness. If organisms do show differential treatment to kin according to the degree of relatedness, how do they detect kinship? Relatives other than your direct offspring can share your genes.

16. Context-Specificity Cues of kinship should cause context-specific effects that... 1. increase prosocial behaviour and attributions 2. decrease attractiveness for mating Within the domain of mating, cues of kinship should be more aversive in the context of a short-term relationship than a long-term relationship.

24. Platek vs. DeBruine Results Platek found that men preferred self-resemblance more than women, who still significantly preferred self-resemblance DeBruine found that men and women preferred self- resemblance equally (Others could match the child faces made using both DeBruine and Platek methods equally well to the adult faces they were made from, and slightly more accurately for female adult faces than male adult faces) Platek found that men preferred self-resemblance more than women, who still significantly preferred self-resemblance DeBruine found that men and women preferred self- resemblance equally (Others could match the child faces made using both DeBruine and Platek methods equally well to the adult faces they were made from, and slightly more accurately for female adult faces than male adult faces)

25. Facial Self-Resemblance 1. Increases trustworthiness (both behaviours and attributions) 2. Increases the attractiveness of same-sex faces more than other-sex faces 3. Has different effects in mating and prosocial contexts 4. Is affected by hormones across the menstrual cycle 5. May or may not be evaluated differently by by men and women in the context of children’s faces
