非人类灵长类动物,像人类一样,已经展示了各种各样的身体直觉。Cacchione和Krist(2004)通过违背期望任务考察了黑猩猩关于支持关系的直觉。他们报告说,黑猩猩有关于支持的直觉,但它们的直觉与人类有部分不同;他们对“接触/不接触”和“接触量”规则敏感,但对“接触类型”规则不敏感。为了进一步探索非人灵长类动物关于支持的直觉,我们在猴子(日本猴子)和猿(黑猩猩)身上进行了类似的实验。在三个实验中,我们向被试呈现了不同支持关系的物理上可能和不可能的事件,并测量了他们的观看时间。结果表明,黑猩猩和猴子能察觉到“接触/不接触”和“接触次数”的违反,但不能察觉到“接触类型”的违反。因此,类人猿和猴子拥有相似的直觉;然而,这些直觉与人类有部分不同。本研究为非人类灵长类动物关于支持的直觉提供了新的和确凿的证据。然而,这再次导致了对灵长类物种之间支持关系的独特理解的问题。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c) 2023 APA,版权所有)
Nonhuman primates, like humans, have demonstrated various physical intuitions. Cacchione and Krist (2004) examined chimpanzees' intuitions about support relations with the violation-of-expectation task. They reported that the chimpanzees possessed intuitions about support, but their intuitions differed from those of humans in part; they were sensitive to “contact/no-contact” and “amount of contact” but not “type of contact” rule. To further explore intuitions about support in nonhuman primates, we conducted similar experiments on monkeys (Japanese monkeys) and apes (chimpanzees). In three experiments, we presented physically possible and impossible events of different support relations to the participants and measured their looking times. The results reveal that the chimpanzees and monkeys detect the violations of “contact/no-contact” and “amount of contact” but not “type of contact” variable. Therefore, the apes and monkeys possess similar intuitions; however, these intuitions differ in part from those of humans. The present study provides new and corroborative evidence of intuitions about support in nonhuman primates. However, this again leads to the question of distinctive understanding about support relations among primate species.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)
