Several hypotheses differentially emphasizing the role of domestication, socialization and experience have been put forward to account for this discrepancy. Recently, it has been suggested that the performance gap between apes and domestic species could be due instead to inconsistent methodologies across studies. Apes have generally been tested with the containers directly in front of them, and the experimenter performing the communicative cue behind the containers (central set-up). In contrast, domestic animals are usually placed at a larger distance with the human experimenter performing the cue in their direct line of sight and the containers peripheral on both sides of the experimenter (peripheral set-up). The distraction hypothesis posits that the close proximity of the food-associated containers in the central set-up proves too distracting for the test subjects, leading to an indiscriminate choice behaviour. Consistent with this idea, great apes are able to solve the peripheral version of the object choice task. To evaluate the distraction hypothesis further, we tested domestic dogs and cats, Felis catus, in the central as well as the peripheral set-up. As predicted, dogs' performance dropped significantly when tested in the central version of the task compared with the peripheral one. Cats performed as well as dogs in the peripheral version, but, intriguingly, their success levels did not decline significantly in the central version. We speculate that this might be due to cats cuing into the movement part of the pointing gesture. These findings partly support the distraction hypothesis and add to the evidence that domestic species do not necessarily have superior skills in reading human communicative cues.

In primates, the lateralization in hand use varies among species and several theories such as the \"postural origin,\" \"task complexity,\" or \"development theory\" have been suggested to explain this variation. In order to contribute comparative data on this phenomenon from a basal primate, we studied manual lateralization in wild redfronted lemurs (Eulemur rufifrons). Data were collected on four groups at Kirindy Forest, western Madagascar, during spontaneous actions and by confronting them with artificial feeding boxes. The lemurs did not exhibit manual lateralization on a group level in either condition. More individuals showed a hand preference in the experimental task, and the preferences were stronger compared to spontaneous actions. The direction of individual hand preferences was not consistent across the two conditions. The results of this study show that measuring manual laterality in different contexts can yield different results. Manual lateralization in wild redfronted lemurs therefore seems to be flexible and situation dependent and probably not ecologically relevant in their natural habitat."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1002/ajpa.22403"],["dc.identifier.gro","3150596"],["dc.identifier.pmid","24318942"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/7373"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.issn","0002-9483"],["dc.subject","hand use; handedness; strepsirrhine"],["dc.title","Manual lateralization in wild redfronted lemurs (Eulemur rufifrons) during spontaneous actions and in an experimental task"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Innovation is a solution to a novel problem or a novel solution to an old problem, with the latter being especially difficult. Finding a new solution to an old problem requires individuals to inhibit previously applied solutions to invent new strategies and to behave flexibly. We examined the role of experience on cognitive flexibility to innovate and to find new problem-solving solutions with an artificial feeding task in wild redfronted lemurs (Eulemur rufifrons). Four groups of lemurs were tested with feeding boxes, each offering three different techniques to extract food, with only one technique being available at a time. After the subjects learned a technique, this solution was no longer successful and subjects had to invent a new technique. For the first transition between task 1 and 2, subjects had to rely on their experience of the previous technique to solve task 2. For the second transition, subjects had to inhibit the previously learned technique to learn the new task 3. Tasks 1 and 2 were solved by most subjects, whereas task 3 was solved by only a few subjects. In this task, besides behavioral flexibility, especially persistence, i.e., constant trying, was important for individual success during innovation. Thus, wild strepsirrhine primates are able to innovate flexibly, suggesting a general ecological relevance of behavioral flexibility and persistence during innovation and problem solving across all primates."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s10071-015-0844-6"],["dc.identifier.gro","3150603"],["dc.identifier.pmid","25673157"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/7380"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.issn","1435-9448"],["dc.subject","Innovation; Problem solving; Prior knowledge; Behavioral flexibility; Persistence; Primates"],["dc.title","Innovation and behavioral flexibility in wild redfronted lemurs (Eulemur rufifrons)"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
