However, the debate still rages. If Platek's theory of contagious yawning pans out, and it turns out that chimps really do yawn contagiously (the study cited uses a sample of 6, with only 2 apparent contagious yawners), that would be one more piece of evidence.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08417970139690159046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182098.post-1119586478503219682005-06-23T23:14:00.000-05:002005-06-23T23:14:00.000-05:00from Chris's post: "... if it turns out that chim...from Chris's post: "... if it turns out that chimps do yawn contagiously, and that contagious yawning requires empathy and self-awareness, as Platek argues, then we would have strong evidence that chimps are self aware and have some level of theory-of-mind/empathy."<BR/><BR/>How about the mirror test, doesn't that already count for evidence of theory of mind in chimpanzees (and bonobos and orangutans)? Also, deception in chimpanzees has been repeatedly observed. The deceptions can be so multi-layered that the chimps would pretty much have to have theory of mind to perform them.Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03397247083673165825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182098.post-1119290965870729812005-06-20T13:09:00.000-05:002005-06-20T13:09:00.000-05:00oncle, I read some of the papers on that site, tho...oncle, I read some of the papers on that site, though not through that site.

Dogs yawn when they're in stressful situations, often to express that they're not interested in pursuing any potentially violent or stressful situation further. Take a look at http://www.thedogdaily.com/you_dog/caring/archive/yawning/. I suspect this behavior goes back very far in our evolutionary history as a social palliative.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
