In this research, we examined the relationship between handedness and levels of plasma cortisol in infant monkeys (Cebus apella). Specifically, we sought to test the hypothesis that stress functioning is related to hemispheric specialization and is manifested in a positive correlation between cortis

The characteristics and availability of the sleeping sites used by a group of 27 tufted capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella nigritus) were studied during 17 months at the Iguazu National Park, Argentina. We tested different hypotheses regarding possible ultimate causes of sleeping-site selection. Most sl
