Primate Social Intelligence
A computotionol theory of primote social intelligence is proposed in which primates represent social situations internally by discrete symbol structures, called scripts. Three well-defined computational operations on scripts are sufficient to support social learning, planning, and prediction. This gives a formal, predictive model with which to analyse how primate social knowledge is acquired, a...
متن کاملEvolution of primate intelligence
First, what do we mean by intelligence? this is a slippery issue, as any psychology student will tell you it is more than just complex behavior many complex behaviors among animals do not impress us as particularly intelligent for example, we don’t think that homing pigeons are particularly smart, in spite of their ability to find their way home from distant, unknown places presumably, intellig...
متن کاملPrimate Social Cognition: Uniquely Primate, Uniquely Social, or Just Unique?
Primates undoubtedly have impressive abilities in perceiving, recognizing, manipulating, and predicting other individuals, but only great apes seem to recognize the cognitive basis of manipulative and cooperative tactics or the concept of self. None of these abilities is unique to primates. We distinguish (1) a package of quantitative advantages in social sophistication, perhaps based on more e...
متن کاملSocial intelligence
In the preceding sentence I repeatedly used the word “seem”. I did so for good reasons. In my opinion it is impossible to know what goes on in the mind of a fish, and therefore we will probably never know for sure whether fishes “think” more or less like we do. No matter how smart some fishes may appear to be, it is always possible that their brain is wired in such a way that particular algorit...
متن کاملFemales drive primate social evolution.
Within and across species of primates, the number of males in primate groups is correlated with the number of females. This correlation may arise owing to ecological forces operating on females, with subsequent competition among males for access to groups of females. The temporal relationship between changes in male and female group membership remains unexplored in primates and other mammalian ...
