“…Laland & Lewis [3], this volume), and, as we shall see, the fact that other animals are capable of social learning turns out to be very useful when we are asking about its evolutionary origins. Finally, while virtually everyone agrees that reading is a product of cultural evolution, it is widely assumed that social learning is mediated by computationally distinctive psychological processes that have evolved through gene-based selection to facilitate the non-genetic inheritance of information [18][19][20].…”

“…Lefebvre and Giraldeau 1996;Reader and Lefebvre 2001). However, interest in the possibility of social learning as an adaptive specialisation dates back over 40 years, when it was first suggested by Klopfer (1959Klopfer ( , 1961. More recently, adaptive specialisation explanations of a wide variety of cognitive and learning processes have become increasingly popular (e.g.…”

“…Copying of a model (16) is reported for humans (17) and vertebrates (18), and it has been considered preliminary to conceptual thought; in this sense it appears related to the cognitive abilities of the animal learning system (19).…”

“…We checked from videorecordings that balls could be easily distinguished from the background of the 18 naive Octopus vulgaris, in isolation, to simultaneous presentation of the red and white ball. A series of five sessions, each consisting of five trials, was conducted on five consecutive days.…”
