Neurophysiology: ‘Monkey see, monkey do’ cells
For nearly 40 years, the properties of single neurons in the cerebral cortex of the macaque monkey have been extensively probed and dutifully catalogued. Many characteristics of these cells have been described, such as the remarkable selectivity of units that respond to very specific visual stimuli, such as faces, and responses made by other cells when the monkey prepares a limb or an eye movem...
متن کاملMonkey see, monkey do: Learning relations through concrete examples
Penn et al. argue that the complexity of relational learning is beyond animals. We discuss a model that demonstrates relational learning need not involve complex processes. Novel stimuli are compared to previous experiences stored in memory. As learning shifts attention from featural to relational cues, the comparison process becomes more analogical in nature, successfully accounting for perfor...
متن کاملMonkey see, monkey do: contagious itch in nonhuman primates.
"Contagious itch" has been anecdotally reported and recently confirmed in a controlled setting in humans. Here, we investigated in adult rhesus macaques whether 'contagious itch' occurs spontaneously in monkeys. In a first experiment, the latency to scratch following cage-mate scratching was observed in pair-housed adult rhesus macaques. Scratching increased within the first 60 s and subsequent...
متن کاملMonkey see, monkey plan, monkey do: the end-state comfort effect in cotton-top tamarins (Saguinus oedipus).
The way human adults grasp objects is typically influenced by their knowledge of what they intend to do with the objects. This influence is reflected in the end-state comfort effect: Actors adopt initially uncomfortable postures to accommodate later task demands. Although many experiments have demonstrated this effect, to the best of our knowledge its phylogenetic roots have not been investigat...
متن کاملMyocardial Infarction in a Rhesus Monkey
Myocardial necrosis can be result from a number of causes including nutritional deficiencies, chemical and plant toxins, ischemia and metabolic disorder. The outcome of myocardial necrosis varies depending on the extent of the damage (Donald 2001, Jubb 1993, Radostits 1994, Vanvaleet 1986). Myocardial infarction without demonstrable of atherosclerosis were reported in a rhesus macaque (Gonder 1...
