Conceptual Learning in Capuchin Monkeys
Folia Primatologica, 1990This paper reviews concept learning in Cebus monkeys, focussing on their ability to use the identity relation, oddity and natural concepts. Capuchins are similar to other primate genera in their use of these concepts. The extant data on learning in primates generally reflect historical concerns with general processes of learning.

Working memory in capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella)
Behavioural Brain Research, 2002It has been suggested that delayed (non-) matching to sample (DNMTS/DMTS) tasks using trial-unique stimuli and short, as well as longer delay intervals, can provide important insights into animal cognition. Therefore, this research examined the capability of the New World capuchin monkey (Cebus apella) in perform trial-unique DMTS and DNMTS tasks ...

Reproduction in Capuchin Monkeys
Nature, 1941So little is known of the reproductive processes of any South American monkey that additional data on the typical genus Cebus are worthy of record. Capuchins seldom breed in captivity, only three records during a hundred years being given for the London Zoo by Zuckerman1 and no further cases being mentioned in his revised report of 19372.

Capuchin monkey research priorities and urgent issues
American Journal of Primatology, 2014The “Capuchin research community roundtable: working together towards a comparative biology of Cebus and Sapajus” was held at the International Primatological Society Congress in Cancún, Mexico, August 2012. Goals of the roundtable were to strengthen interactions among the capuchin research community, and to prioritize and coordinate research and ...

Metamemory in tufted capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella)
Animal Cognition, 2009Whereas evidence for metacognition by nonhuman primates has been obtained in great apes and old world monkeys, it is weaker in new world monkeys. For instance, capuchin monkeys may fail to recognize their own knowledge of the location of invisible bait. In the present study, we tested whether tufted capuchin monkeys would flexibly change their behavior

Three‐dimensional kinematics of capuchin monkey bipedalism
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2011AbstractCapuchin monkeys are known to use bipedalism when transporting food items and tools. The bipedal gait of two capuchin monkeys in the laboratory was studied with three‐dimensional kinematics. Capuchins progress bipedally with a bent‐hip, bent‐knee gait. The knee collapses into flexion during stance and the hip drops in height.

Food-exchange with humans in brown capuchin monkeys
Primates, 2005To assess how brown capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella) delay gratification and maximize payoff, we carried out four experiments in which six subjects could exchange food pieces with a human experimenter. The pieces differed either in quality or quantity. In qualitative exchanges, all subjects gave a piece of food to receive another of higher value.
