We examined relationships among cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of the major serotonin metabolite (5-HIAA, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid) and significant medical and behavioral outcomes for female rhesus macaques. Based on earlier findings with

We compared the thumb morphology of Cebus apella to that of several other primate species in order to determine whether robust thumbs are associated with tool-use. We found that thumb robusticity was greater for Cebus apella than for all other repres

Rationale: While the relationship among CSF 5-HIAA, impulsivity, and aggression is well characterized in males, its investigation in females is limited, and no studies have assessed its generalizability across primates by making simultaneous comparis

In the present research we used the rhesus macaque to model the decline in the incidence of left-handedness that has been noted in the aged human population. We found a significant group-level bias towards use of the left hand among young-adult macaq

In this research we examined biological and behavioural correlates of handedness in a subject cohort of 41 free-ranging young female rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta). Specifically, we examined relationships between handedness and cerebrospinal fluid

The emergence of hemispheric specialization has important implications for the development of higher order cognitive processes, including language and spatial skills. In this research we sought to further understand psychobiological processes associa

This research examined between-species variation in the development of hand preference among Macaca. Specifically, we examined hand preference using juveniles and adults of three macaque species that differ in social and reactive tendencies in order

In this research we examined the relationship between plasma cortisol and handedness in infant rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta). Specifically, we tested the hypothesis that stress functioning is related to hemispheric specialization and manifested in

In this research we examined stress-related correlates of hand preference in monkeys. Specifically, we tested the hypothesis that stress reactivity and plasma levels of the stress hormone cortisol are developmentally related to handedness in rhesus m
