I wish to test a general theory for human evolution and would be interested in any bodies views with an interest in the field of evolutionary psychology.

The model for human evolution centres on the existece of two basic human personalities. These personalities were formed at different times in evolution. The first of these personalities was formed in a period of great austerity. People lived in single family groups widely spread out in a virtual desert environment. This existence formed the human family of a man a woman and children along with the concept of monogamy. Antisocial behaviour ensured survival of the race and the personality desrcribed with autistic tendencies was formed by the process of natural selection.
After this period came much improved climatic conditions. In this environment large game came to roam the plains and we see the evolution of the tribe. In the tribe most of the normal human social characteristics were formed by the process of natural selection. This enabled people to naturaly function together as a group.
The twist in the human story is that both the original human personality with autistic characteristics and the tribal human personality have survived to form our species.
