Investigation of social learning mechanisms in bonobos and chimpanzees: comparative cognitive study on social intelligence underpinning culture

本研究旨在比较黑猩猩和黑猩猩在提取工具使用的社会学习过程中可能存在的差异，以更好地了解大猩猩的文化现象和社会智力。该学习计划最初设计为两部分进行，包括新颖的太使用任务的社会学习过程和类人猿观看工具使用演示时的眼动学习。我首先与一名学生合作进行开放扩散学习。这些结果将显示黑猩猩在没有信息反馈的情况下对不透明任务的反应，这可以用来与随后的研究进行比较。然后，我进行了一项眼球跟踪研究，以考察猩猩在使用工具观察时的视觉注意。

The current study aimed to compare the likely differences between bonobos and chimpanzees during the social learning process for extractive tool use, so as to better understand the cultural phenomenon and the social intelligence in great apes. The study plan was originally designed to be conducted in two parts, including social learning process of novel too-using tasks and eye-tracking study when apes viewing the tool-using demonstration.I first cooperated with a student in his open diffusion study. The results would indicate how the chimpanzees react to an opaque task without information feedback, which could be used to compare with following studies. Then, I conducted a eye-tracking study to investigate the apes' visual attention when observing tool using.
