Abstract

Two rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) with a lifetime of continuous exposure to mirrors showed a dramatic and reliable reinstatement of social behavior directed toward the mirror when it was simply moved to a new location. These data are discussed in the context of repeated failures to find self-recognition in monkeys and several recent claims that a cessation of social behavior directed toward mirrors can be used as evidence for the beginning of self-recognition in nonhuman primates.

摘要

两只恒河猴（猕猴）一生都持续接触镜子，当镜子被简单地移到一个新位置时，它们表现出对镜子的社交行为有显著且可靠的恢复。在猴子身上反复未能发现自我识别的背景下，以及最近一些声称停止对镜子的社交行为可作为非人类灵长类动物开始自我识别的证据的说法中，对这些数据进行了讨论。
