Individual mental representation of dominance hierarchies in Tonkean macaque
Most primate species live in social groups structured by a dominance hierarchy. Past studies suggest that non-human primates represent the social structure of their own group. However, these mental representations are typically considered at the group level and little is known regarding how individuals differ in their representation of these third-party social relations. In this study, semi-free ranging Tonkean macaques (Macaca tonkeana) performe…
Pseudoreplication in Primate Communication Research: 10 Years On
Pseudoreplication is the statistical error of collecting numerous datapoints from a single unit (such as an individual), which are not independent, and applying statistical methods that assume independence of data. Importantly, pseudoreplication increases the chances of Type 1 errors (i.e., false positives), bringing findings and conclusions based on pseudoreplicated analyses into question. Ten years ago, Waller et al. (2013) published a paper hi…
The face is central to primate multicomponent signals
A wealth of experimental and observational evidence suggests that faces have become increasingly important in the communication system of primates over evolutionary time and that both the static and moveable aspects of faces convey considerable information. Therefore, whenever there is a visual component to any multicomponent signal the face is potentially relevant. However, the role of the face is not always considered in primate multicomponent …
Signal value of stress behaviour
Physiological and psychological stress are accompanied by nonverbal behaviour across a wide range of species. The function of this ‘stress behaviour’ is not well understood but is often assumed to be read by others as a cue to stress. Displaying signs of weakness is, however, difficult to understand from an evolutionary perspective and therefore further investigation into why these behaviours exist is needed. Here, we test whether displacement be…
Revisiting Darwin's comparisons between human and non-human primate facial signals
Darwin and other pioneering scholars made comparisons between human facial signals and those of non-human primates, suggesting that they share evolutionary history. We now have tools available (the Facial Action Coding System) to make these comparisons anatomically based and standardised, as well as analytical methods to facilitate comparative studies. Here we review the evidence establishing a shared anatomical basis between the facial behaviour…
