Popis: The literature on same-sex sexual behavior in humans and nonhuman primates consists of significantly different methodologies and perspectives. In humans, same-sex sexual behavior is typically interpreted as a sexually motivated behavior related to sexual orientation and identity. In nonhuman primates however, it is often interpreted as a non-sexual, socially motivated behavior. In this study I conduct multiple bibliometric analyses, finding that concepts related to sociosexual behavior are more prevalently found in nonhuman primate literature, whereas concepts such as sexual orientation and identity are primarily found in human literature. Based on these findings, I provide recommendations on how to address this difference between the two literatures.
