In their ambitious Evolutionary Anthropology paper, Winterhalder and Smith review the history, theory, and methods of human behavioral ecology (HBE). In establishing how HBE differs from traditional approaches within sociocultural anthropology, they and others laud its hypothetical-deductive research method.
