Popis: | The evolutionary significance of hand preferences among non-human primates and humans has been studied for decades with the aim of determining the origins of the population-level tendency. In this study, a meta-analysis was conducted to statistically integrate data on hand preferences in non-human primates performing the tube task and other bimanual tasks to determine the presence and direction of manual laterality. Significant individual-level lateralization was obtained for these bimanual tasks. In nonhuman primates, 82% of the animals analysed showed right or left-hand preference performing the tube task, this figure being 90% for other bimanual tasks. In contrast with humans, no asymmetry was found at the population level. Additionally, population-level preferences were not found in either of the tasks, although a strong manual preference was found when performing the tube task and other bimanual tasks. Species was studied as a variable moderator throughout the meta-analysis. These results highlight the importance of standardized testing methodologies across species and institutions to obtain comparable data and fill the gaps in the taxonomy This work was supported by the Regional Government of Catalonia—Generalitat de Catalunya (2017 SGR-1040); Universitat Rovira i Virgili (2019PFR-URV91); the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (PID2020-118419GB-I00); and the Universitat de Girona (Programa d’Ajuts de Suport a la Recerca del Departament de Psicologia 2021) Open Access funding was provided thanks to the CRUE-CSIC agreement with Elsevier |
