“…A terrestriality effect on tool innovations (especially for extractive foraging) and complex manipulations has already been suggested in various previous studies (e.g., McGrew, 2004a;Visalberghi et al, 2005;Humle & Matsuzawa, 2009;Spagnoletti et al, 2009; but see Boesch-Achermann & Boesch, 1994). However, here we propose that terrestriality may not only affect opportunities for (complex) tool innovations, but may also affect opportunities for socially facilitated tool-affordance learning (sensu Huang & Charman, 2005), because previously used tools are more easily encountered in a terrestrial setting (see also Meulman et al, in press). Terrestriality may especially promote the occurrence and transmission of complex tool use, because accumulated technology is less likely to be invented independently and therefore relies more critically on propitious learning conditions.…”

“…We predicted, in line 222 with ghost control studies in which a whole display produced the most faithful 223 copying performance, that children who witnessed the whole display would show a 224 higher level of adoption of the witnessed hierarchical sequential structure than 225 children who witnessed other viewing conditions. Further, in line with evidence on a 226 simpler task (Huang & Charman, 2005) we predicted that when the interactions of the 227 tools and apparatus were presented, more copying of hierarchical actions would occur 228 than in conditions that presented information about hands and tools only. 229…”

“…We 180 developed this as a simpler and more natural use of video images than digitally 181 removing agents, the approach favoured by Huang and Charman (2005). Children as 182 young as 18-months can imitate behaviour they have seen in televised demonstrations, 183 even when no narration is presented (Simcock, Garrity, & Barr, 2011), demonstrating 184 that young children can take information from symbolic media and apply it to real-185 world objects (Barr & Hayne, 1999) The two main aspects of action structure we investigated were the hierarchical, conditions except the end-state and no information conditions.…”

It is school"s relational atmosphere less stressful yet more humane and productive.…”

Abstract-Within the eclectic history of conflict research, subsuming number of theories and models of conflict resolution, the roles of mediators are often labeled based on cultural milieu. Using an in-depth semi-structured interview, this phenomenological study probed into the conflict mediation of 10 school administrators representing the Philippine Schools Overseas in the United Arab Emirates, the Sultanate of Oman and the State of Qatar with a view to understanding their unique roles as mediation persona. Transcribed field texts were read and reread for purposes of naï ve understanding after which a structural analysis was done via a dendogram. To emerge a collective and comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon, transcendental subjectivity was observed and was first subjected to the member-checking procedure. Themes were emerged following the inductive approach in theme development.Interestingly, results of cool and warm analyses paved the identification of trilogy of mediator's roles at Philippine Schools Overseas School administrators namely bracketing, balancing, and blending roles. The emerged mediator's trilogy of roles expands the overall capability of school leaders while viewing their role not only from the technical and managerial perspective but also from the humanistic point of view where conflict resolution is treated and interpreted in a way that it is less stressful yet humane and productive.
