Brain and Behavioral Lateralization in Animals

Contact calls of common marmosets ( Callithrix jacchus )
Marmosets, as do many other primates, live in forest environments, are group living and constantly at risk of predation. Retaining contact with one another is therefore a matter of survival. We ask here whether their contact calls (phee and twitter vocalizations) are in some way ordered acoustically by sex or age and whether the calls of older marmosets elicit different responses than those of younger marmosets. In our study, marmosets (2–14 year…
Limb use and preferences in wild orang‐utans during feeding and locomotor behavior
Limited data are available on hemispheric lateralization in wild orang‐utans. There has been only one previous investigation of limb preferences in wild orang‐utans [Yeager, 1991]. We examined the lateralization of limb use in wild Bornean orang‐utans ( Pongo pygmaeus pygmaeus ) with the aim of providing more insight into possible hemispheric specialization in wild nonhuman primates. Here, we report in detail on limb use and preference during arb…
Saliva sampling to assess cortisol levels in unrestrained common marmosets and the effect of behavioral stress
We report a method for taking saliva samples from unrestrained, captive marmosets ( Callithrix jacchus ) to assess levels of free cortisol. Saliva samples can be obtained reliably, without any habituation, by encouraging the marmosets to lick and chew a cotton‐wool bud coated in banana. Saliva is thus left on the bud. We also tested sweetened fruit‐drink crystals and a number of other substances, but none of these attracted all of the marmosets, …
Evolution of Side Biases
Patterns of Gazing in Orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus)
Of Human Fear and Indifference
The Evolution of Lateral Asymmetries, Language, Tool Use, and Intellect
Breaking Out of the Dominant Paradigm
Concepts of sexuality based on the physical sex of partners limit the way in which human sexuality is conceived and investigated. The shift in focus of inquiry from the sexual identity of individuals to the structure of their sexual relationships is an important step towards exploding concepts that, for the most part, have been severely restricted to male-female genital distinctions. This article argues that the genital organs are not the prime f…
Hormonal theories for sex differences ? politics disguised as science
Shortcomings of the psychomedical research of John Money and co-workers into sex differences in behavior
Stigma, Sex, and Society
This paper takes a critical look at the hormonal basis of sexual behavior and concludes that it plays no part in determination of sexual activity or sexual preference in any of its forms including homosexuality and transsexualism. The empirical evidence of psychosexual functioning does not support Money's schema which suggest that sexual variation (homosexuality), transsexualism, and transvestism are incongruities of gender identity. At alternati…
