New paper 📃 out now in Cognition Preschoolers and, to a lesser extent, chimpanzees but possibly not capuchin monkeys consider abstract patterns in sampled evidence to guide efficient foraging sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Abstract concepts are a powerful tool for making wide-ranging predictions in new situations based on little experience. Whereas looking-time studies s…
Prior research found that long-tailed macaques may be prone to distraction and exhibit poorer inhibitory control abilities compared to other primates. With this study, we could show that they can exhibit patience when their needs (reduced cognitive distraction) are adequately met.

In the current study, we tested the effect of reward value on the monkeys performance in the exchange task. When we reduced the value of the exchange item, the monkeys displayed significantly improved abilities to delay gratification.

This work was a follow-up of our data collection for the @manyprimates.bsky.social Delay of Gratification (MP2) call. During MP2, we had only 1 instance of reward exchange. We suspected this performance wasn’t truly representative of our monkeys’ capacity to delay gratification. (2/4)

Advertising 11 PhD positions in the RTG "Form-meaning mismatches". Project 3 - associated with my group - examines how word-form and word-meaning mismatches influence early word learning, expanding on this publication (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...).
Ja, und ich hatte endlich mal Zeit herauszufinden wie man hier einen 🧵hinkriegt 😅
Children may have struggled with the unfamiliar first- person perspective, and the difficulty of the task when they had to consider multiple agent characteristics at once.
