英国林肯大学研究团队对100种灵长类动物进行了对比研究，发现日常攻击行为与致命暴力并非源于同一进化行为谱系，而是遵循不同的进化路径1。这一发现挑战了关于暴力行为在生物学上根深蒂固的传统认知。
研究表明，频繁发生温和冲突的物种并不必然更容易发生致命暴力1。包括杀害竞争对手或杀婴在内的极端暴力行为遵循独特的进化模式1。该研究由Bonaventura Majolo教授、Samantha Wakes博士和Marcello Ruta教授等人主持完成，相关成果已发表在《Evolution Letters》2026年第10卷第2期1。
Majolo教授指出，"我们的研究表明，攻击进化遵循的模式比早期模型提出的更加复杂，基于物种总体好斗倾向来对其进行等级划分在生物学上是不准确的"1。
A comparative study of 100 primate species, including humans, has revealed that everyday aggression and lethal violence do not stem from the same evolutionary pathway.1 Researchers at the University of Lincoln found that mild conflicts and extreme behaviors such as killing competitors or infanticide follow distinct evolutionary patterns.1 This suggests that species exhibiting frequent low-level aggression are not necessarily more prone to deadly violence.1
The findings, published in Evolution Letters in October 2026, challenge earlier models of violence evolution.1 Professor Bonaventura Majolo stated that "our research demonstrates that the evolution of aggression follows more complex patterns than earlier models proposed, and ranking species based on their overall propensity for aggression is biologically inaccurate."1 The research team, including Dr. Samantha Wakes and Professor Marcello Ruta, suggests that understanding the distinct evolutionary roots of different types of aggressive behavior is essential for accurately assessing violence across primate species.1
