Both of the studies you linked are about polygamous cultures where men have multiple (formal) wives, rather than men and women both having multiple partners of varying degrees of commitment, so I don’t see why they would be relevant to polyamory as practiced in the EA community.
Also, this whole discussion takes away women’s agency and is framed as if women are just passive victims. You know what’s ‘good for women’? Letting them choose who they date, marry or sleep with.
