Edward H. Hagen - Evolutionary Psychopathologist

Edward H. Hagen is an evolutionary psychologist who studies how human mental health and psychological disorders can be understood through the lens of evolution. He investigates the ways in which our minds and behaviors may have developed to solve problems faced by our ancestors, such as social relationships and survival challenges. By applying principles of evolution, he aims to explain why certain mental health issues arise and how they may have had adaptive functions in the past. Hagen's work helps bridge the gap between psychology and evolutionary biology, offering deeper insights into human behavior and mental health.
