Hominoid

Wilson, Vanessa

Abstract

This chapter will touch on the need to understand environmental influences that may have provided selection pressures for particular cognitive abilities, such as habitat, group size, and social structure. Such an understanding could be influential in addressing differences in ability across the primate phylogeny.
