Synchrony and motor mimicking in chimpanzee observational learning
Cumulative tool-based culture underwrote our species' evolutionary success, and tool-based nut-cracking is one of the strongest candidates for cultural transmission in our closest relatives, chimpanzees. However the social learning processes that may explain both the similarities and differences between the species remain unclear. A previous study of nut-cracking by initially naïve chimpanzees ...
متن کاملA potent effect of observational learning on chimpanzee tool construction.
Although tool use occurs in diverse species, its complexity may mark an important distinction between humans and other animals. Chimpanzee tool use has many similarities to that seen in humans, yet evidence of the cumulatively complex and constructive technologies common in human populations remains absent in free-ranging chimpanzees. Here we provide the first evidence that chimpanzees have a l...
متن کاملThe effect of self-control feedback on the learning of generalized motor program and parameters during physical and observational practice
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of self-control feedback on the learningof generalized motor program and parameters during physical and observational practice. Participants (n=90) were randomly assigned to physical and observational practice (self-control, yoked and instructor KR) groups. They practiced a sequential timing task. The task required participants to press four k...
متن کاملImplicit motor learning through observational training in adults and children.
Although evidence of implicit motor learning on the basis of observation alone has been reported, there is some data to suggest that the phenomenon could be contaminated by the intentional exploitation of explicit knowledge. In the present experiment, a special procedure was adapted to study observational learning in a situation involving the acquisition of a new drawing behavior. The participa...
متن کاملDeficient motor synchrony in schizophrenia.
A laboratory measure of motor function, synchronization of tapping with an auditory stimulus, was introduced as an index of motor disorganization in schizophrenia. It was hypothesized that (a) schizophrenics' performance on this task would be distinguishable from that of controls and would reflect a relative inability to take advantage of stimulus predictability, independent of task difficulty;...
