Abstract
- Signal costs can be necessary for honesty, but not in all circumstances.
- We examine disagreement on key terminology within costly signalling literature.
- We aim to reconcile differences between 'handicap principle' advocates and critics.
- Ultimately, 'What maintains honesty?' lies at the heart of costly signalling research.
