“…Human intuition plays a cardinal, though tacit role, in the recognition and interpretation of animal behaviour (Hebb 1946;Lorenz 1959), and thus in the generation of verifiable hypotheses. Nowadays, while most ethologists may not deny this role, subjectivistic (Lorenzian) accounts are frowned upon.…”

Abstract. Reasons for aggression may be deduced from the situations preceding aggressive behaviour.This we may call the retrospective approach. In addition to results from this conventional procedure the present paper investigates the predictability of aggressive behaviour. In this so-called anticipatory approach, particular non-agonistic events were used as predictors of aggression. These events had in common that they were intuitively judged to be unpleasant for one of the chimpanzees. This individual was observed during the next 10 min in order to establish if its inclination to exhibit aggression had increased shortly after that seemingly frustrating event. The studies reported here were carried out on a colony of 20 semi-free-living chimpanzees Pan troglodytes in Arnhem Zoo. The data show that:(1) half of all aggressive actions arose in agonistic contexts: thus aggression was contagious; (2) adult males performed apparent spontaneous aggression remarkably often: this result is suggested to reflect dominance-rivalry among males; (3) aggressive behaviour was predictable on the basis of intuition, but attempts to account for the observer's intuitive knowledge were not entirely successful.

“…Con posterioridad, Hebb (1946) defendió que las expresiones faciales de las emociones podían ser identificadas sin percibir su causa, en función de la familiaridad de los observadores con el individuo que la expresa y el contexto social en que ocurren. Estas afirmaciones aumentaron el escepticismo de los psicólo-gos por los estudios sobre la expresión de las emociones.…”

“…The early research included studies of Chimpanzees Pan troglodytes in which personality was assessed using behavioural measures and ratings (Crawford, 1938;Hebb, 1946aHebb, ,b, 1949. These studies tested whether subjects displayed individual differences in their behaviour, and in their emotional and cognitive tendencies.…”

As we face the Anthropocene extinction, many species are threatened or becoming so, and great ape species are no exception (all are Endangered or Critically Endangered). As humans work to combat this trend, research on every aspect of the lives of animals is vital. One area of research that has the potential to be particularly useful is the study of personality. Zoological institutions offer a unique opportunity for research on personality in non-human primates, with knowledgeable staff, consistency in environment, accessibility of a variety of species and the possibility to have large sample sizes to provide generalizability. Here, we offer a perspective on how zoos have contributed to the personality literature, how the personality literature can aid animal management and how much further such research can continue, with implications for both welfare and conservation.
