Natural history is more relevant than ever for primate ecology and conservation
Technological Origins: Primate Perspectives and Early Hominin Tool Use in Africa
The origin of technology is believed to have marked a major adaptive shift in human evolution. Understanding the evolutionary process(es) underlying the first human adaptation to tool use, and the subsequent process(es) that led Homo sapiens to become the only extant primate fully dependent on technology, is one of the most stimulating topics of research of present-day archaeology. New fields of research have been founded (e.g. primate archaeolog…
Testing Google Scholar bibliographic data: Estimating error rates for Google Scholar citation parsing
We present some systematic tests of the quality of bibliographic data exports available from Google Scholar. While data quality is good for journal articles and conference proceedings, books and edited collections are often wrongly described or have incomplete data. We identify a particular problem with material from online repositories
