摘要: For many decades, researchers have tried to get a glimpse into the “folk physies” of animals, that is, their common sense understanding how world works, as well why it works in way does (e.g., Kohler 1927). It has been suggested animals use variety cognitive strategies such things space, tools, object categories, quantities, and perhaps causality. Significantly later, this focus research complemented with studies on psychology”, what understand about behavior mental lives conspecifics interactions involving cooperation, competition, communication, social learning Premack Woodruff 1978). However, both fields research, we are far from agreement really when they engaged adapting or modifying environment, physical form, for own sake. While some believe large-brained develop an increasing ability causal relationships accumulating experience (Fujita, volume; Hauser 2000; Rumbaugh et al. 2000), others warn over-interpret animal’s apprehension cause-effect relations underlying mainpulation animate inanimate objects (Heyes 1998; Povinelli Tomasello Call 1997; Visalberghi 1998).
