Social Cognition, joint attention and communicative Competence from 9 to 15 months of age
TL;DR: It was found that two measures--the amount of time infants spent in joint engagement with their mothers and the degree to which mothers used language that followed into their infant's focus of attention--predicted infants' earliest skills of gestural and linguistic communication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Processes of social learning in the tool use of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) and human children (Homo sapiens).
TL;DR: A pattern of results suggest that the chimpanzees were paying attention to the general functional relations in the task and to the results obtained by the demonstrator but not to the actual methods of tool use demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It was concluded that youngsters were not imitatively learning their communicatory gestures from conspecifics, but rather that they were individually conventionalizing them with each other.
