  • Ethnicity, culture, and prosociality

    Open AccessMayara Wenice Alves de Medeiros, Fívia Lopes de Araújo et al.ARTICLEEvolution and Human Behavior2026

    Current literature is insufficient in addressing how culture influences the development of prosociality, particularly when considering differences among ethnic groups. Therefore, we analyzed how culture and ecological aspects influence the prosocial development of quilombola children in two separate studies. The activities were developed in the schools where the children studied. Our objective in Study 1 was to examine whether there are differenc…

  • Outgroup threat and the emergence of cohesive groups

    Open AccessMartin Lang, Dimitris Xygalatas et al.ARTICLEGroup Processes & Intergroup…2021Cited by: 4References: 10

    Evolutionary models and empirical evidence suggest that outgroup threat is one of the strongest factors inducing group cohesion; however, little is known about the process of forming such cohesive groups. We investigated how outgroup threat galvanizes individuals to affiliate with others to form engaged units that are willing to act on behalf of their in-group. A total of 864 participants from six countries were randomly assigned to an outgroup t…

    Human spatial behavior has been the focus of hundreds of previous research studies. However, the conclusions and generalizability of previous studies on interpersonal distance preferences were limited by some important methodological and sampling issues. The objective of the present study was to compare preferred interpersonal distances across the world and to overcome the problems observed in previous studies. We present an extensive analysis of…

Thus, 358 Brazilian undergraduates assessed eight descriptions of same-gender stimulus targets (formulated with different levels of physical attractiveness, social sk…

    Open AccessLídio França Do Nascimento, Priscila Izabel A P Medeiros et al.ARTICLEPsicologia Reflexão e Crítica2008

    O estudo do comportamento animal é uma área de pesquisa consolidada, que cresceu e se diversificou em vários países e que deu origem a disciplinas e abordagens de investigação, como a Etologia, a Ecologia Comportamental, a Neuroecologia, a Psicologia e a Psicologia evolucionista. No estudo do comportamento animal, o etograma é a base para estudos comportamentais de espécies pouco conhecidas, como também para comparar comportamentos de populações …

  • Razão, emoção e ação em cena

    Open AccessAngela Donato Oliva, Emma Otta et al.ARTICLEPsicologia Teoria e Pesquisa2006Cited by: 1References: 4

    O conhecimento científico da mente humana tem avançado desde a fundação da Psicologia. Aspectos biológicos e culturais, psicológicos e neurológicos, emocionais e racionais foram privilegiados separadamente em diferentes épocas e perspectivas - a visão de mente foi por vezes focalizada e por vezes relegada à caixa preta da ciência psicológica. Contemporaneamente, assiste-se a buscas de integração entre mente e comportamento humanos. A mente é vist…

  • Behavioral strategies and hormonal profiles of dominant and subordinate common marmoset ( Callithrix jacchus ) females in wild monogamous groups

    Open AccessMaria Bernardete Cordeiro De Sousa, Maria Bernardete Cordeiro Sousa et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Primatology2005

    New insights into the mating systems of common marmosets suggest that they are mainly monogamous, although polygyny and polyandry occasionally occur. Long‐term monitoring of wild common marmosets has shown that some reports of polygynous groups (i.e., groups that contain more than one reproducing female) in fact indicate an unbalanced reproductive output associated with extragroup copulation. In this study we describe the behavioral and hormonal …

  • Reproductive output, maternal age, and survivorship in captive common marmoset females ( Callithrix jacchus )

    Open AccessDarlene Smucny, Darlene A Smucny et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Primatology2004

    Common marmosets ( Callithrix jacchus ) demonstrate significant variation in reproductive output on both a yearly and lifetime basis in comparison to other anthropoid primates. We explore the factors that may be most important in determining reproductive variation in captive common marmosets. Studies have found that maternal age, maternal condition, and dam survivorship are related to reproductive output; however, these reports are not in agreeme…
