  1. 1. Lateralized behavior in white-handed gibbons (Hylobates lar)

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Biologi

    Författare :Kiki Spoelstra; [2021]
    Nyckelord :lateralized behavior; limb side preference; Hylobates lar; white-handed gibbons; nonhuman primates;

    Sammanfattning : The evolutionary origins of human handedness are not yet fully understood as evidence of lateralized behavior in nonhuman primates is inconclusive. In the present study, lateralized behavior in both spontaneously occurring motor patterns and a tube task was examined in 15 white-handed gibbons (Hylobates lar). LÄS MER

  2. 2. A cooperation experiment in captive white-handed gibbons (Hylobates lar)

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Biologi
