Sex-Differentiated Behavioral Strategy Dominance and Systemic Population Stability
Abstract
This paper develops a mathematically rigorous framework for evaluating the hypothesis that statistically dominant female behavioral strategies — characterized by elevated risk aversion, status-preservation orientation, and social coherence prioritization over epistemic accuracy — when amplified through expanded political autonomy, produce systematic drift in collective decision-making away from policies with high short-term costs and diffuse long-term benefits. We formalize the thesisusing dynamical systems theory, agent-based modeling primitives, and large-system stability analysis. The core claim is decomposed into five falsifiable propositions. We identify the weakest link in the causal chain (the autonomy-to-collective-output transfer function), and propose a formal treatment using control theory and attractordynamics to strengthen this link analytically. The result is a falsifiable, mathematically grounded research hypothesis with explicit boundary conditions and predicted observational signatures.
