Gunderson, Virginia M.; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v23 n5 p671-75 Sep 1987

Study looks at pigtailed macaque in the context of visual recognition problems adapted from a standardized test developed for use with human infants. Results demonstrate that the low-risk group easily differentiated novel from previously seen targets; the high-risk group gave no evidence of recognition. (Author/RWB)
