Just Gal Pals! The Differential Treatment of Sexual Behavior Among Nonhuman Great Apes
There is a tendency in primatology to separate out sexual and sociosexual behaviors, roughly along the lines of reproductive and non‐reproductive sexual behavior. Primatology perpetuates a heteronormative distinction that penetrative copulation between males and females has reproductive—but not social—value, while all sexual behaviors between same‐sex pairs must be motivated by a distant social goal. Here, we interrogate these assumptions, and po…
Maternal socialization and infant helping in Uganda and the United Kingdom
Prosocial behavior, including instrumental helping, emerges early in development, but the role parental attitudes and practices take in shaping the emergence of early helping across different cultural contexts is not well understood. We took a longitudinal approach to investigate maternal socialization of early helping across two different cultural groups. Participants were mother-infant dyads from urban/suburban York, United Kingdom (43 infants:…
Shared semantics
Striking similarities across ape gestural repertoires suggest shared phylogenetic origins that likely provided a foundation for the emergence of language. We pilot a novel approach for exploring possible semantic universals across human and nonhuman ape species. In a forced‐choice task, n = 300 participants watched 10 chimpanzee gesture forms performed by a human and chose from responses that paralleled inferred meanings for chimpanzee gestures. …
Primate origins of discourse-managing gestures
The last decades have seen major advances in the study of gestures both in humans and non-human primates. In this paper, we seriously examine the idea that there may be gestural form types that are shared across great ape species, including humans, which may underlie gestural universals, both in form and meaning. We focus on one case study, the hand fling gesture common to chimpanzees and humans, and provide a semantic analysis of this gesture
Context, not sequence order, affects the meaning of bonobo ( Pan paniscus ) gestures
In most languages, individual words can be ambiguous between several different meanings, but through syntax and context the intended meaning of an ambiguous word usually becomes apparent. Many great ape gestures also have ambiguous meanings, which poses the problem of how individuals can interpret the signaller’s intended meaning in specific instances. We tested the effects of sequence compositionality and situational context (including behaviour…
Cases of maternal cannibalism in wild bonobos (Pan paniscus) from two different field sites, Wamba and Kokolopori, Democratic Republic of the Congo
