SUMMARY:Competition\, trust\, and intelligence: synthesising evolutionary 
 thinking with the social sciences - Dr Jonathan Goodman (University of Cam
 bridge)

CONTACT:Oliver Knight
DESCRIPTION:Issues of trust and cognition are well explored in psychology 
 and psychiatry\, and in the case of cognition\, genetics is known to play 
 an important role. In both areas\, however\, the role of evolutionary theo
 ry is often missing: trust and the genetics of cognition are often treated
  as divorced from foundational principles in human social evolution. Drawi
 ng from my recent book\, Invisible Rivals: how we evolved to compete in a 
 cooperative world\, I’ll discuss how a synthesis of these areas is criti
 cal for moving our understanding of trust and cognition forward. I will di
 scuss my ongoing work on trust and behavioural genetics\, and suggest that
  interdisciplinary considerations of problems in both areas are essential.
