Monkey Meltdowns: Do Tantrums Influence Maternal Investment in Bearded Capuchin Monkeys? [PDF]

Dev Psychobiol
ABSTRACT Tantrums are widely discussed in human development literature and are typically defined as displays of frustration or anger. In behavioral ecology, they are hypothesized to function as a strategy for securing greater maternal investment. Infant primates often exhibit tantrums when their attempts to obtain maternal care are rejected.
