Visual bias in social cognition studies is often interpreted to indicate preference, yet it is difficult to elucidate whether this translates to social preference. Moreover, visual bias is often framed in terms of surprise or recognition. It is thus... Read More about Testing the Relationship Between Looking Time and Choice Preference in Long-tailed Macaques.

The impact of galaxy orientation on neighbour galaxy counts (2021)
Thesis
