Abstract:Comparing adults and infants of our own species must be considered as carefully as comparisons between humans and other primates. While many of the same neuroendocrine systems are present in each, there are also important behavioral and adaptive distinctions which, if not precisely defined, may lead to erroneous conclusions about evolutionary history.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
