Role of Vision in Social Development in Monkeys.
Chamove, Arnold S.
Child Development, v55 n4 p1394-411 Aug 1984
Eight stump-tailed macaques were reared individually and either given all of their daily social experience in darkness or given half in the dark and half in the light. Results suggest that vision is especially important in the maintenance of assertive behaviors and in the instigation and direction of aggressive behaviors. (Author/RH)
