Macaques (Macaca nemestrina) recognize when they are being imitated.
This study investigated whether monkeys recognize when a human experimenter imitates their actions towards an object. Two experimenters faced 10 pigtailed macaques, who were given access to an interesting object. One experimenter imitated the monkeys' object-directed actions, the other performed temporally contingent but structurally different object-directed actions. Results show a significant...
متن کاملDeveloping Robots that Recognize When They Are Being Trusted
In previous work we presented a computational framework that allows a robot or agent to reason about whether it should trust an interactive partner or whether the interactive partner trusts the robot (Wagner & Arkin, 2011). This article examines the use of this framework in a well-known situation for examining trust--the Investor-Trustee game (King-Casas, Tomlin, Anen, Camerer, Quartz, & Montag...
متن کاملMaternal encouragement of infant locomotion in pigtail macaques, Macaca nemestrina
This study investigated whether pigtail macaque mothers encourage their infants’ independent locomotion by increasing distance from them and displaying a retrieval signal, the pucker face. Fifteen mother–infant pairs living in a large captive social group were focally observed during the first 12 weeks of infant life. Mothers puckered to their infants only when out of contact with them, and the...

متن کاملSpontaneous adaptation explains why people act faster when being imitated
The human ability to perform joint actions is often attributed to high-level cognitive processes. For example, the finding that action leaders act faster when imitated by their partners has been interpreted as evidence for anticipation of the other's actions (Pfister, Dignath, Hommel, & Kunde, 2013). In two experiments, we showed that a low-level mechanism can account for this finding. Action l...
