所有被调查的野生黑猩猩和卷尾猴习惯性使用工具的案例都包括年轻人遇到耐用的人工制品,最常见的是在一个支持性的社会环境中。我们认为,与工具使用相关的持久人工制品,如以前使用过的工具、部分加工过的食物和以前活动留下的残余材料,帮助非人类灵长类动物学习使用工具,并发展使用工具的专业知识,从而为非人类的传统技术做出贡献。因此,社会对工具使用的贡献可以被认为位于欧几里得空间的三个维度,以及时间的第四个维度。这一概念扩展了社会背景对学习技能的贡献,超越了附近直接存在的模型。我们从野生络腮胡卷尾猴和黑猩猩中提供了支持这一假设的例子,并提出了未来研究的途径。
All investigated cases of habitual tool use in wild chimpanzees and capuchin monkeys include youngsters encountering durable artefacts, most often in a supportive social context. We propose that enduring artefacts associated with tool use, such as previously used tools, partly processed food items and residual material from previous activity, aid non-human primates to learn to use tools, and to develop expertise in their use, thus contributing to traditional technologies in non-humans. Therefore, social contributions to tool use can be considered as situated in the three dimensions of Euclidean space, and in the fourth dimension of time. This notion expands the contribution of social context to learning a skill beyond the immediate presence of a model nearby. We provide examples supporting this hypothesis from wild bearded capuchin monkeys and chimpanzees, and suggest avenues for future research.
