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.

Early social rearing, the V1A arginine vasopressin receptor genotype, and autistic traits in chimpanzees (2021)
Journal Article
Weiss, A., Wilson, V. A., & Hopkins, W. D. (2021). Early social rearing, the V1A arginine vasopressin receptor genotype, and autistic traits in chimpanzees. Autism Research, 14(9), 1843-1853. https://doi.org/10.1002/aur.2550

Previous studies found associations between autism-related phenotypes and both rearing and V1A arginine vasopressin receptor (AVPR1A) genotypes. We tested whether these exposures as well as their interaction were associated with autism-related phenot...
