Prosocial, other-benefitting behavior is a fundamental aspect of human social behavior. In the microsystem their natural groups, preschool children have to decide not only whether, but also whom share with and help on daily basis. study 108 from five different childcare facilities in Vienna, we examined how individual measures dominance popularity both actor recipient, as well friendship influenced prosocial group setting. We assessed age-appropriate sociometric interviews tested two types dominant (i.e., contest scramble) sharing helping) groups familiar peers. Participants were regular socio-ecological niches, thereby preserving taking into account dynamics that influence—and are by—interactions within group. found directed more often toward friends than considered friends. Likelihood was increased by actor's recipient's game. Furthermore, helping preferentially performed older frequently received help. Group size testing sequence had some additional effects helping. Our findings suggest similar antecedents underlying motivations depend relationships between children. Such can be effectively when developmental-ecological approach investigating children's environment.

Abstract Great ape cognition is used as a reference point to specify the evolutionary origins of complex cognitive abilities, including in humans. This research often assumes that great consists abilities (traits) account for stable differences between individuals, which change and develop response experience. Here, we test validity these assumptions by assessing repeatability performance among captive apes ( Gorilla gorilla , Pongo abelii Pan paniscus troglodytes ) five tasks covering range domains. We examine whether individual characteristics (age, group, experience) or transient situational factors (life events, testing arrangements sociality) influence performance. Our results show task-level generally over time; four were reliable measurement tools. Performance was best explained individuals. Cognitive further correlated, suggesting shared processes. Finally, when predicting performance, found be more important than variables capturing Taken together, this study shows structured respond different developmental conditions.

Abstract Object play has been proposed to provide individuals with information about their environment, facilitating foraging skills and tool use. In species where object co-occurs locomotor or social play, it may have additional functional implications, such as the evaluation of peers forming bonds. For instance, ravens judge others’ competitiveness via caching engage in by exchanging objects. However, most raven studies were conducted on a restricted number under controlled captive settings. To validate these findings gauge scope field conditions, we investigated patterns characteristics individually marked free-flying Austrian Alps. Using two large data sets, show decrease age preference for playing longer novel objects, supporting from captivity. We also find adults occasionally objects no difference duration non-social bouts across classes. Taken together, our are line assumption that likely more than one function serves gain individual’s physical environment.

Although animals live in an environment where members of other are present, little known interspecific social learning.

Abstract Urban environments expose animals to abundant anthropogenic materials and foods that facilitate foraging innovations in species with opportunistic diets high behavioral flexibility. Neophilia exploration tendency are believed be important traits for thriving urban environments. Vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) one of few primate have successfully adapted environments, thus making them an ideal study these traits. Using a within-species cross-habitat approach, we compared neophilia novel objects (jointly referred as “object curiosity”) between semi-urban, wild, captive shed light on the cognitive facilitating living. To measure curiosity,” exposed various types stimuli their approaches explorative behavior. Our results revealed differences number behavior toward habitat considered. Captive vervet were significantly more than both semi- wild troops, suggesting positive experiences humans lack predation, rather exposure human per se, influence object curiosity. Across habitats, juvenile males most age-sex class. This is likely due being dispersing sex juveniles motivated learn about environment. Additionally, found items potentially associated food, elicited stronger responses semi-urban non-food related objects, motivation explore might driven by “anthrophilia”, is, experience rewarding similar food sources. We conclude varying levels humans, predation pre-exposure packaging explain variation curiosity” our sample monkeys.
