šØFrom Joshua Confer, Allison Champ, Dorsa Amir, Hanna Schleihauf & Jan Engelmann:
Group membership biases childrenās evaluation of evidence
People form beliefs not only as individual agents, but as members of social groups.
Children (4-6 years old) who belonged to a group were more convinced by evidence that supported their ingroupās belief (and were less convinced by evidence that opposed their ingroup): www.nature.com/articles/s41...
New article out exploring great ape name recognition! We find partial evidence that zoo-living chimps & bonobos know each other's names š Huge thanks to Animal Behavior and Cognition (a great open-access journal) & co-authors for your collaboration!ššµ

Far too long in the making.. but finally out in #AnimalBehaviour @asab.org:
Orang-utans and chimpanzees #cooperate strategically based on the partnerās incentives.

It took 3 years to complete this paper and it was difficult(!) but I think both @ctennie.bsky.social and I are grateful for the varied perspectives we gained as a result of this collaboration. If you work on ape culture, hopefully you'll feel the same

Thrilled to share our latest paper, out now in Science Advances! We explored the development of cooperative behaviors ā fairness, trustworthiness, forgiveness, & honesty āĀ across five societies, culturally contextualizing them & seeing how they correlate. (1/5) www.science.org/doi/full/10....
Which factors are more vs. less important in predicting memory?
We systematically investigated the contributions of image memorability, valence, arousal, attention, and test delay.
Image memorability was the strongest predictor of memory.
Proud of this work led by @hartwakeland.bsky.social!
What are children's *naturalistic* everyday experiences like?
Nele's paper presents a crucial resource (100+h of š„ w/ annotations) that will help us to build the tools we need to study what it's like to be a child in the wild.
što @jacobsfoundation.bsky.social @maxplanck.de @dfg.de for funding!
I am excited to share my first publication in Behavior Research Methods! š
Weāve released ChildLens: 109 hours of open-access, annotated egocentric video/audio from children (ages 3ā5).
