Vicarious Reinforcement in Rhesus Macaques (Macaca Mulatta)
What happens to others profoundly influences our own behavior. Such other-regarding outcomes can drive observational learning, as well as motivate cooperation, charity, empathy, and even spite. Vicarious reinforcement may serve as one of the critical mechanisms mediating the influence of other-regarding outcomes on behavior and decision-making in groups. Here we show that rhesus macaques sponta...
متن کاملgamma-photon irradiated rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta)
Rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) have been used as non-human primate (NHP) models for a number of stress-related situations [1, 8, 9, 11, 16, 17, 21]. A key aspect of United States (US) animal welfare regulations [18, 19] is that pain, distress, and discomfort should be minimized whenever possible. The refinement of our experimental procedures is an important technique to improve animal welfare...
متن کاملSocial rank and cortisol among female rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta).
In animal societies, some stressful events can lead to higher levels of physiological stress. Such stressors, like social rank, also predict an increased vulnerability to an array of diseases. However, the physiological relationship between social rank and stress varies between different species, as well as within groups of a single species. For example, dominant individuals are more socially s...
متن کاملMultiple sirehood in free-ranging twin rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta).
Rhesus macaque females regularly copulate with a number of partners, and produce a single offspring per reproductive cycle in over 99% of cases. We used genotyping of 10 STR markers to determine paternity in the Cayo Santiago population of rhesus macaques. About 1,500 monkeys have been analyzed to date, with their marker genotypes entered into a computerized database. These data enable us to re...
متن کاملRotational displacement skills in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta).
Rotational displacement tasks, in which participants must track an object at a hiding location within an array while the array rotates, exhibit a puzzling developmental pattern in humans. Human children take an unusually long time to master this task and tend to solve rotational problems through the use of nongeometric features or landmarks as opposed to other kinds of spatial cues. We investig...
