Abstract

A recent study found that chimpanzees chose hidden rewards selected by humans from two populations containing different proportions of favoured and non-favoured items; their choice was based on statistical reasoning about random sampling, human preferences, and inferences about humans' knowledge of their own choices.

摘要

最近的一项研究发现，黑猩猩会从两个包含不同比例受青睐和不受青睐物品的群体中，选择人类选择的隐藏奖励；它们的选择是基于对随机抽样、人类偏好的统计推理，以及对人类自身选择知识的推断。
