Social status gates social attention in monkeys
Humans rapidly shift attention in the direction other individuals are looking, following gaze in a manner suggestive of an obligatory social reflex [1–4]. Monkeys’ attention also follows gaze, and the similar magnitude and time-course of gazefollowing in rhesus macaques and humans [5] is indicative of shared neural mechanisms. Here we show that low-status male rhesus macaques reflexively follow...
متن کاملSocial status gates social attention in humans.
Humans tend to shift attention in response to the averted gaze of a face they are fixating, a phenomenon known as gaze cuing. In the present paper, we aimed to address whether the social status of the cuing face modulates this phenomenon. Participants were asked to look at the faces of 16 individuals and read fictive curriculum vitae associated with each of them that could describe the person a...
متن کاملIntergroup threat gates social attention in humans.
Humans shift their attention to follow another person's gaze direction, a phenomenon called gaze cueing. This study examined whether a particular social factor, intergroup threat, modulates gaze cueing. As expected, stronger responses of a particular in-group to a threatening out-group were observed when the in-group, conditioned to perceive threat from one of two out-groups, was presented with...
متن کاملReflexive Social Attention in Monkeys and Humans
For humans, social cues often guide the focus of attention. Although many nonhuman primates, like humans, live in large, complex social groups, the extent to which human and nonhuman primates share fundamental mechanisms of social attention remains unexplored. Here, we show that, when viewing a rhesus macaque looking in a particular direction, both rhesus macaques and humans reflexively and cov...
متن کاملSocial status, facial structure, and assertiveness in brown capuchin monkeys
A recent paper by Lefevre et al. (2014) in PLoS One reported that individual differences in facial structure predicted assertiveness in brown capuchin monkeys (Sapajus spp). Specifically, variation in the facial width-to-height ratio (fWHR) was positively correlated with alpha status and a composite measure of assertiveness. This novel finding adds to a growing body of evidence indicating that ...
