Language as an emergent group-level trait
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 37 (3):274-275 (2014)
Abstract
Following Smaldino's definition, we claim that language is also an emergent group-level trait, and propose two facets to verify this statement, both of which also provide a general framework to address the future work about group-level traits.My notes
