Condition-dependent Preference

Condition-Dependent Preference is a theoretical construct in evolutionary biology denoting a mating preference in which the strength or expression of an individual's choice for particular phenotypic traits in a mate varies as a function of the individual's own condition, thereby linking preference expression to underlying physiological, genetic, or environmental state.
