Abstract
- Compares the logical abilities of six-year-old children with those of squirrel monkeys by using the five-term transitivity problem. Both binary and triadic versions of the tests were administered in both verbal and nonverbal modes. Children showed response profiles very similar to those of monkeys in all the conditions used.
