Spontaneous Metacognition in Rhesus Monkeys.
Metacognition is the ability to think about thinking. Although monitoring and controlling one's knowledge is a key feature of human cognition, its evolutionary origins are debated. In the current study, we examined whether rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta; N = 120) could make metacognitive inferences in a one-shot decision. Each monkey experienced one of four conditions, observing a human appeari...
متن کاملSpontaneous number representation in semi-free-ranging rhesus monkeys.
Previous research has shown that animals possess considerable numerical abilities. However, this work was based on experiments involving extensive training, a small number of captive subjects and relatively artificial testing procedures. We present the results of experiments on over 200 semi-free-ranging rhesus monkeys using a task which involves no training and mimics a natural foraging proble...

In humans, the sense of self-agency is closely related to self-awareness, and results from monitoring the relationship between intentional, sensorimotor and perceptual information. Humans and rhesus monkeys were trained to move a computer icon with a joystick whi...
متن کاملCondylar growth in rhesus monkeys.
The advent of autoradiography has made it possible to add information on cellular dynamics to histologic observations of morphologic details reported in previous studies.1Condylar growth has been studied extensively in rodents by autoradiographic technics.';-' Since the temporomandibular joint and masticatory function in the rhesus monkey more clearly resemble the human situation, cellular dyna...
متن کاملLeucocytes in Normal Rhesus Monkeys
During a study of experimental measles in rhesus monkeys the available literature was consulted for the normal figures of total and differential white cell counts in these animals. It was found that the results reported by 11 different authors (table I) varied within a wide range. The differential count was always mentioned in percentages which either gives no idea of the absolute numbers, or c...
