The natural selection of psychosis
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 29 (4):410-411 (2006)
Abstract
Diverse evidence from genomics, epidemiology, neurophysiology, psychology, and evolutionary biology converges on simple general mechanisms, based on negative secondary effects of strong selection, for how mental disorders such as psychosis have evolved and how they are sustained.
