早期的社会经验对成年人的社会互动有着持久的影响，但对经验如何以及为什么会影响社会行为却知之甚少。经验可能改变成人行为的一种方式是影响交流的发展。在这里，我们测试早期经验如何影响个人的脸学习，一个关键方面的通信inPolistes fuscatuswasps。我们准备好了。fuscatusworkers在五个社会环境：与同种，单独与一面镜子，单独与一个黄蜂通过玻璃可见，单独与图片的P。褐色的，完全孤独的。然后，我们测试了黄蜂学习和记忆个体同种的能力。我们发现，同种的经验提高了黄蜂的个人面部学习的能力。在正常社会环境中长大的黄蜂善于学习和记住面孔，而孤立的黄蜂和只接触图片的黄蜂无法学习面孔。值得注意的是，即使是有限的社会经验也能改善面部学习，因为暴露在镜子或玻璃中的黄蜂具有中等的面部学习能力。因此，个体面孔学习的发展受到早期社会经验的类型和数量的强烈影响。尽管行为的许多方面的发展需要很少的经验，但像个体识别这样的行为可能依赖于持续的社会互动。意义陈述个体面孔学习是一项具有挑战性的任务，需要生物体学习和记住其他人的独特面孔。发展个人面部学习的能力可能需要丰富的社会经验，但很少有工作评估所需的经验的数量和类型。在这里，我们表明，社会经验的类型和数量影响个人的面孔学习。具有更多社会经验的黄蜂比具有较少社会经验的黄蜂更能够学习面孔。令人惊讶的是，几乎没有社会经验就足够了，因为没有任何直接社会接触的黄蜂能够比单独饲养的黄蜂更准确地区分个体的同种面孔。在野外，动物可能会经历一系列不同的社会环境，因此未来的工作还有很大的空间来探索经验如何影响动物的交流和识别。
Early social experience has lasting effects on adult social interactions, but less is known about how and why experience impacts social behavior. One way experience may alter adult behavior is by affecting the development of communication. Here, we test how early experience impacts individual face learning, a key aspect of communication inPolistes fuscatuswasps. We rearedP. fuscatusworkers in five social environments: with conspecifics, alone with a mirror, alone with a wasp visible through glass, alone with pictures ofP. fuscatus, and completely alone. Then, we tested the wasps’ ability to learn and remember individual conspecifics. We found that experience with conspecifics improved wasps’ capacity for individual face learning. Wasps reared in normal social environments were adept at learning and remembering faces, while isolated wasps and wasps exposed to only pictures were unable to learn faces. Notably, even limited social experience improved face learning, as wasps exposed to a mirror or a conspecific through glass had intermediate capacity for learning faces. Thus, the development of individual face learning is strongly influenced by the type and amount of early social experience. Although the development of many aspects of behavior requires little experience, behaviors like individual recognition may depend on consistent social interactions.Significance statementIndividual face learning is a challenging task that requires organisms to learn and remember the unique faces of others. Developing the capacity for individual face learning may require extensive social experience, but little work has evaluated the amounts and types of experience needed. Here, we show that the type and amount of social experience influences individual face learning. Wasps with more social experience are better able to learn faces than wasps with less social experience. Surprisingly little social experience is sufficient, as wasps that viewed a single individual without any direct social contact were able to discriminate individual conspecific face more accurately than wasps reared alone. In the wild, animals may experience a range of different social environments, so there is much room for future work exploring how experience influences animal communication and recognition.
