      On the empirical (theory-lacking) state of psychology.. "We don’t have much in the way of scientific theory in psychology...There are fields of theoretical physics, theoretical biology...while there is no parallel field of theoretical psychology."

      we do have evolutionary theory and biology and a lot of even evolutionary theorists dont keep up eith that

      especially evolutionary psychologists who continue like they are ground breaking but use out dated ideas.

      It is an unfortunate consequence of the lack of biology education for psychologists...which is, in part, because the broader field of psychology is skeptical that evolutionary principles can be (and should be) applied to understand human psychology

      well. It should be central. And we should move with that field. Pinker et al have not responded to a lot of new data.

      Agree--proper training in evolutionary biology should be central to psychology training programs at all levels

          but it needs to be pluralistic because we are still finding things out. The chimpanzee models of human behaviour are questionable.

          people like wrangham and pinker have not revisited the hominid data in years.

          The principal limitation maybe is that EP ignores new ideas on evolutionary biology, e.g. niche construction, cultural gene evolution and so on. But it don't refutes EP on fundamental grounds.

          I am not suggesting EP is refuted. Just that for example in hominid evolution the chimpanzee models are out dated.

          But seems to me that scientists have been used other models, bonobos, for example. For ex, currently we consider mating adaptations in general as a bonobo-chimp-like. Because humans seems to be in between.

          also that earlier hominims were less dimorphic. Evidence out there now.

          yes. The recent thoughts about ardipithecus for example. https://human-evolution.blog/human-evolution/4-the-first-hominines/ …
