Kyle Conlon

Kyle Conlon is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Stephen F. Austin State University's College of Liberal and Applied Arts. His primary affiliation involves research and teaching in evolutionary and social psychology, with a focus on human mating strategies, power dynamics, and ethical decision-making processes.

Conlon's research bridges evolutionary psychology and social behavior, examining:

• Mate selection tactics including poaching and retention strategies related to dominance/prestige
• Power dynamics influencing social affiliation, environmental decisions, and ethical compliance
• Clinical applications in OCD, ADHD, and weight management through behavioral frameworks

His publications reflect strong interdisciplinary trends: evolutionary psychology dominates recent work (2019-2025) examining mating strategies, while earlier contributions (2008-2017) span clinical interventions, health psychology, and ethical research practices. Consistent themes include power perception effects on behavior and evolutionary perspectives on relationships.
