Social life, evolution of intelligence, behaviour and human brain size
Social life is one of the most critical factors of the evolution of the behavior of non-human primates and humans. Several factors, such as an increase in brain size, adaptive modules, and grooming, are related to the complexities of social groups. Although some scientists have mentioned foraging as a rival hypothesis for the evolution of behavior, in this research, we tried to investigate the ...
متن کاملThe Brain and Human Behaviour
THIS volume is a record of the proceedings of the 1956 meeting of the Association for Research in Nervous and Mental Disease. In the preface it is stated that the programme committee decided "to consider separate areas of the brain from the standpoint of what these areas might contribute to behaviour." Pharmacology and biochemistry were included on a small scale, whilst all other aspects of thi...
متن کاملGenes, Brain and Maternal Behaviour
The tender intimacy and selflessness of a mother's love for her infant occupies a unique and exalted position in human conduct… It provides one of the most powerful motivations for human action, and has been celebrated throughout the ages—in literature, art and music—as one of the most beautiful and inspiring manifestations of human behaviour (Zeki, 2004). Mothers demonstrate a unique ability t...
متن کاملBayesianModels of Brain and Behaviour
This paper presents a review of Bayesian models of brain and behaviour. We first review the basic principles of Bayesian inference. This is followed by descriptions of sampling and variational methods for approximate inference, and forward and backward recursions in time for inference in dynamical models. The review of behavioural models covers work in visual processing, sensory integration, se...
متن کاملEpigenetics, brain evolution and behaviour.
Molecular modifications to the structure of histone proteins and DNA (chromatin) play a significant role in regulating the transcription of genes without altering their nucleotide sequence. Certain epigenetic modifications to DNA are heritable in the form of genomic imprinting, whereby subsets of genes are silenced according to parent-of-origin. This form of gene regulation is primarily under m...
