Impact of Aggression on Bystanders
In social animals, aggression is a group matter not involving only the opponents. Witnessing a conflict can induce tension and distress in bystanders (i.e., individuals not involved in either the conflict or post‐conflict affiliation with the aggressor and aggressee). For this reason, bystanders can engage in post‐conflict affiliative exchanges to reduce tension and distress, a phenomenon known as Quadratic Post‐Conflict Affiliation (QPCA). This …
Is it a Match? Yawn Contagion and Smile Mimicry in Toddlers
Automatic behavioral matching includes Rapid Facial Mimicry (RFM) and Yawn Contagion (YC) that occur when the facial expression of an individual acts as a 'mirror social releaser' and induces the same facial expression in the observer (within 1 s for RFM, and minutes for YC). Motor replication has been linked to coordination and emotional contagion, a basic form of empathy. We investigated the presence and modulating factors of Rapid Smile Mimicr…
Rapid facial mimicry in Platyrrhini
Rapid facial mimicry (RFM), the rapid and automatic replication of facial expression perceived, is considered a basic form of empathy and was investigated mainly during play. RFM occurs in Catarrhini (Old World primates), but it is not still demonstrated in Platyrrhini (New World primates). For this reason, we collected video data on playful interactions ( N play_interactions = 149) in three species of spider monkeys ( Ateles fusciceps — N = 11, …
Is it for real? Structural differences between play and real fighting in adult chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes )
In primates, as well as in other mammals, play fighting (PF) is a complex form of playful activity that is structurally similar to real fighting (RF) and may also be used in a competitive way. Here, we verify the structural key differences that can distinguish PF from RF in adult chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes ). We collected 962 h of video recording on 30 adult individuals belonging to four chimpanzee groups ( Mona Chimpanzee Sanctuary , Spain; L…
Adult–adult play in captive lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla)
Among African great apes, play is virtually absent between adult lowland gorillas ( Gorilla gorilla gorilla ). Here, we report an extremely rare case of adult–adult play observed in the lowland gorilla group housed at La Vallée de Singes (France). We recorded three playful interactions between the silverback and an adult lactating female. Given the diverse causal and functional nature of play, different factors may join in promoting this behaviou…
Yawn contagion in bonobos
In primates, yawn contagion (the yawning response elicited by others' yawn) is variably influenced by individual (e.g., sex, age) and social factors (e.g., familiarity) and possibly linked to interindividual synchronization, coordination, and emotional contagion. Two out of three studies on yawn contagion in bonobos ( Pan paniscus ), found the presence of the phenomenon with mixed results concerning the effect of familiarity and no replication on…
Facial mimicry and play
Play fighting, a common form of mammalian play, can escalate into aggression if playful motivation is misinterpreted and not shared by players. In primates, playful facial expressions and mimicry can be performed to signal and share playful motivation. Here we compare play facial expressions (play face [PF]: lower teeth exposed; full play face [FPF]: upper and lower teeth exposed) and their mimicry in captive chimpanzees and lowland gorillas, dur…
Being a victim or an aggressor
Animals adopt different behavioral strategies to cope with the conflict of interests coming from the competition over limited resources. Starting from the study on chimpanzees, post-conflict third-party affiliation (the affiliative contact provided by a third-party toward the victim--VTA--or the aggressor--ATA) was investigated mainly in primates. Later, this post-conflict mechanism has been demonstrated also in other mammals, such as wallabies, …
Peaceful Post‐Conflict Interactions between Aggressors and Bystanders in captive lowland gorillas ( Gorilla gorilla gorilla )
We observed a colony of lowland gorillas in order to assess the occurrence of Peaceful Post‐Conflict Interactions between Aggressors and Bystanders (PPIAB). We compared the dynamics of PPIAB with those of Peaceful Post‐Conflict Interactions between Victims and Bystanders (PPIVB), which are directed toward victims. We confirmed the occurrence of PPIAB (mean Triadic Contact Tendency: 41.7%±16.2% SEM) at frequencies comparable to PPIVB. Immature gor…
Reconciliation and Consolation in Captive Western Gorillas
Possible Roles of Consolation in Captive Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes)
Empathy is a necessary prerequisite for the occurrence of consolation. The term "consolation" contains a hypothesis about function, which is distress alleviation. The present study aims to confirm the occurrence of consolation in captive chimpanzees via the post-conflict/matched-control method (PC-MC) and to suggest its possible roles. We collected 273 PC-MC pairs in the group of Pan troglodytes housed in the ZooParc de Beauval (France). We confi…
