之前对非人类灵长类认知发展的研究表明，在9个月大的幼猴身上可以观察到物体的永久性。尽管婴儿猴在物体永久性发育方面与人类婴儿有独特的相似之处，但只有一份报告调查了可能影响非人类灵长类动物这种发育的因素。本报告描述了幼年食蟹猕猴(食蟹猕猴)物体持久性的发展，并提供了暴露于普遍存在的环境污染物甲基汞可以延缓物体持久性发展的证据。
Previous studies of nonhuman primate cognitive development indicate that object permanence can be observed in infant monkeys by 9 months of age. Although the infant monkey provides unique parallels to the human infant in object permanence development, only one report has investigated factors that may influence this development in the nonhuman primate. This report describes the development of object permanence in infant Macaca fascicularis (crab eating Macaques) and provides evidence that exposure to a prevalent environmental pollutant, methylmercury, can retard object permanence development.
