“…One common example of aggression in childhood occurs between siblings. Aggressive behaviours can take the form of play fighting, which is considered to be developmentally beneficial for children, cooperative, and enjoyable (Hart & Tannock, 2018), or sibling aggression, which is problematic aggressive behaviour, underpinned by different motivations to that of play, containing an intent to harm (e.g., Felson & Russo, 1988). However, there are difficulties in identifying the two different types of behaviour from the individual behaviours alone, as it is the intention of these that is different, rather than the outward expressions of aggression.…”

Research shows sibling relationships can influence cognitive development, specifically in terms of high-order processes involved in social functioning. These high-order processes take place in the human prefrontal cortex. While prefrontal connectivity can be influenced by factors experienced during developmental phases, it remains unclear how experiences of aggression towards a sibling in childhood can contribute to high-order processes in adulthood, specifically decision-making. Through two studies, we sought to establish a relationship between sibling aggression and decision-making styles reported in adulthood, as well as real-time risky decision-making. Study 1 examined the relationship between childhood experiences of sibling aggression and high-order function, specifically decision-making. Self-reports from 142 adult participants revealed that using sibling aggression to maintain dominance (ESAS; Harrison, Harrison, N. (2017). Sibling aggression: Associations with parenting styles, social dominance behaviour and co-occurring forms of family aggression (Doctoral thesis, University of Central Lancashire, UK). Retrieved from: https://clok.uclan.ac.uk/20917/) was linked to avoidant and spontaneous decision-making (GDMS; Scott & Bruce, Scott and Bruce, Educational and Psychological Measurement 55:818–831, 1995). The findings reported here indicate a possible role of sibling aggression in the development of avoidant and spontaneous decision-making styles. Study 2 investigated the relationship between childhood sibling aggression (ESAS; Harrison, Harrison, N. (2017). Sibling aggression: Associations with parenting styles, social dominance behaviour and co-occurring forms of family aggression (Doctoral thesis, University of Central Lancashire, UK). Retrieved from: https://clok.uclan.ac.uk/20917/) and performance in risky decision-making tasks (IOWA gambling task; Bechara et al., Bechara et al., Brain 123:2189–2202, 2000) among 75 adult participants. It revealed that experiences of sibling aggression did not predict risky decision-making. These findings indicate that the types of decisions made may be influenced by childhood sibling aggression, but not the level of risk involved in decisions made.

“…As an adult, failure at any of these tasks could be fatal. Rough-and-tumble play is also a vital part of childhood for members of our own species (Hart and Tannock 2018). By playing at physically violating the boundaries of others and by playfully having their own boundaries violated, children learn to handle aggression, they learn what their own bodies can endure, and they learn what actions they can perform on others without hurting them, among other things.…”

A mythopoetic paradigm or perspective sees the world primarily as a dramatic story of competing personal intentions, rather than a system of objective impersonal laws. Asma (2017) argued that our contemporary imaginative cognition is evolutionarily conserved-it has structural and functional similarities to premodern Homo sapiens's cognition. This article will (i) outline the essential features of mythopoetic cognition or adaptive imagination, (ii) delineate the adaptive sociocultural advantages of mythopoetic cognition, (iii) explain the phylogenetic and ontogenetic mechanisms that give rise to human mythopoetic mind (i.e., genetically endowed simulation and associational systems that underwrite diverse symbolic systems), (iv) show how mythopoetic cognition challenges contemporary trends in cognitive science and philosophy, and (v) recognize and outline empirical approaches for a new cognitive science of the imagination.
