Infant-directed vocalizations in Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes)
REFNo: NS272ES
There is clear evidence that surrounding and directed vocalizations have a part in the development of the vocal competence of infants. What part each input plays in vocal development is, however, unclear. As such, the overall aim of this study is to investigate further on the presence and the roles of the different vocal inputs available during the vocal development of wild eastern chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii). More precisely, the study sets out to identify infant-directed vocalizations and characterize its acoustic and structural properties as well as investigate on its function in respect to ISV on the three different levels of vocal acquisition (see Table 1 for a summary of the hypotheses): production, comprehension and usage (Seyfarth & Cheney, 2010).
This study is part of a wider initiative which sets out to understand the evolution of human language and consequently the evolution of the learning mechanisms set in place in parallel throughout closely related species.
