While talking about the theories of evolution and the existence of similarities between apes and humans, German study on the difference a new distinction between the two, a collective action.
The Web site of the U.S. Life Science researchers at the Max Planck Institute for German and found that children in the age of three would prefer to do their duties collectively, as opposed to monkeys who prefer to do alone.
She explained the researcher responsible for the study Efoni Rekerz that the results of the study confirmed the expectations, pointing out that the difference between humans and monkeys in the level of collective cooperation can preview it in everyday life, human beings are cooperating in the areas of greater and more complex ways.
On the reason for this difference, Rekerz likely to be based on some cognitive abilities do not exclude the effects of motivation.
The experience of German researchers in the test can be important for the monkeys and children to do their own tug of war or a double game to get the food delicious, and pulling a rope and one requires individual effort while pulling double game requires a collective effort.
It was found that monkeys preferred one tug of war for food, despite the tightening cords makes them get a faster and larger quantities of food, on the contrary, he preferred to children pulling cords collective effort, although the amount of food is no different in the case of a tug of war.
