Kin term mimicry hypothesis
Theory Biosci. 2023 Jun 5. doi: 10.1007/s12064-023-00393-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAdaptive mimicry in animals is a well-known phenomenon. Here, we propose that a similarly adaptive strategy in humans is using kin terms for people who are not closely genetically related. Irrespective of the initiator attributing a kin term to a non-kin, we call this kin term mimicry (KTM). The emergence of human sociality and language allowed not only easy kin recognition, but also led to strong positive emotions related to such kin names as "mother," "father," "brother," "sister," "aunt" or "uncle."
