To explore the biological roots of this effect, we investigate communicative interactions and social information processing in Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) living at 'La Forêt des Singes' in Rocamadour, France. The study combines an analysis of the production of (N = 8185 signals, 84 signallers) and responses to communicative signals (N = 3672 events, 84 receivers) with a field experiment (N = 166 trials, 45 subjects). Here we show that older monkeys are not more likely to specifically ignore negative social information or to employ avoidance strategies in stressful situations, although they are overall less sociable. We suggest that the monkeys have only a limited capacity for self-regulation within social interactions and rather rely on general avoidance strategies to decrease the risk of potentially hazardous social interactions."],["dc.description.sponsorship"," Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft https://doi.org/10.13039/501100001659"],["dc.description.sponsorship"," Leibniz-Gemeinschaft https://doi.org/10.13039/501100001664"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1038/s42003-022-04012-5"],["dc.identifier.pii","4012"],["dc.identifier.pmid","36224338"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/116650"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-605"],["dc.relation.eissn","2399-3642"],["dc.relation.issn","2399-3642"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Deutsches Primatenzentrum"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Older Barbary macaques show limited capacity for self-regulation to avoid hazardous social interactions"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Non-human primates provide an evolutionary perspective on human cognitive and motivational ageing, as they lack an insight into their own limited lifetime, and ageing trajectories are not affected by customs and societal norms. To test age-related variation in inhibitory control, cognitive flexibility and persistence, we presented Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus), living at La Forêt des Singes in Rocamadour (France), with three problem-solving tasks. We conducted 297 trials with 143 subjects aged 2-30 years. We found no effect of age on success and latency to succeed in the inhibitory control task. In the cognitive flexibility task, 21 out of 99 monkeys were able to switch their strategy, but there was no evidence for an effect of age. Yet, the persistence in the motivation task as well as the overall likelihood to participate in any of the tasks declined with increasing age. These results suggest that motivation declines earlier than the cognitive abilities assessed in this study, corroborating the notion that non-human primates and humans show similar changes in motivation in old age. This article is part of the theme issue 'Evolution of the primate ageing process'."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1098/rstb.2019.0617"],["dc.identifier.pmid","32951548"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/80522"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.eissn","1471-2970"],["dc.relation.issn","0962-8436"],["dc.title","Differential ageing trajectories in motivation, inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility in Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus)"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
