Laboratory evidence for cultural transmission mechanisms
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 24 (2):335-337 (2001)
Abstract
The mechanisms for cultural transmission remain disputable and difficult to validate through observational field studies alone. If controlled experimental laboratory investigation reveals that a putative mechanism is demonstrable in the species under study, then inferences that the same mechanism is operating in the field observation are strengthenedMy notes
